The Zio® QX System consists of three
components:
1. Zio QX Patch
2. Zio QX Gateway
3. myZioTM App and Website
The Zio QX Patch records every heartbeat.
Each time you press the Patch button or when
Zio QX automatically detects an arrhythmia,
the Zio QX Gateway transmits information
to iRhythm for analysis. myZio is one way
for you to enter your symptoms and verify
that your heart data transmission has been
received by iRhythm.

APPLYING YOUR ZIO QX
Follow the instructions in the Zio
QX Application Instructions guide to
apply your Zio QX Patch
It is important that you follow the steps
in the Applications Instructions guide to
ensure that your Patch sticks to your skin
correctly and remains on your skin for the
duration of monitoring.
The Patch should only be applied to healthy,
unbroken skin that was not previously irritated.

USING YOUR ZIO QX
With the Zio monitor, you can go
through your normal daily activities
aftertherst24hours.
The Patch needs 24 hours to fully stick to
your skin, we recommend showering briey
with your back to the water, and avoid any
activities that
cause sweating
during this period.
After those rst
24 hours, you
may resume
normal activities,
including
showering
and moderate
exercise.
The Patch and Gateway will not ash
or make noise when they are working
correctly, but you can check your
transmissions using myZio or
www.myzio.com.
4
Remember:
1Each time you feel a symptom, press the
button on your Patch. Then note the date,
time, and what you felt in this booklet. Or,
you may enter your symptoms in the myZio
App or on www.myzio.com. See page 6.
2
If the Patch or Gateway lights are
ashing, it does not mean there is a
problem with your heart, only that a
device may have lost its connection. Turn
to the Troubleshooting section or call
1.888.693.2401 for
support.
3
Keep the Gateway
close by when you
can, and when
you are on the move
carry it with you. It is
okay if the Gateway
is temporarily out of
range, but iRhythm
will not receive heart
rhythm data from your
Patch or Gateway while
it is out of range. For
the Gateway to remain
connected it needs to
be kept in front of you
and within 10 feet of
the Patch.

TROUBLESHOOTINGFAQsPATCH REMOVAL TRAVELING USING ZIO
Additional tips:
If your skin around the Patch feels
a little itchy, it is okay. If the Patch
peels or lifts at the edges, press
and hold the Patch to re-stick.
Excessive sweating can cause the
Patch to slide, become loose, fall o,
and shorten wear time – especially
if sweating occurs in the rst 24
hours after the Patch is put on.
The Patch is water-resistant but
should not be submerged. Brief
showering is okay, but no
swimming or hot tubs. The Gateway
is NOT water resistant. Please do
not get it wet.
Do not place the Gateway within 6
feet of transmitting devices, such
as wireless routers, baby
monitors and TV senders/
transmitters. These devices may
cause interference between the
Patch and the Gateway.
Sending heart rhythm data
through the Gateway may take
some time after the Patch button
is pressed. Recent transmissions
may not be viewable on myZio
until several hours later.

where P is the
maximum output
power rating of
the transmitter in
watts (W) according
to the transmitter
manufacturer and d
is the recommended
separation distance in
meters (m).
Field strengths from
xed RF transmitters,
as determined by
an electromagnetic
site survey,a should
be less than the
compliance level
in each frequency
range.b
Interference may
occur in the vicinity
of equipment marked
with the following

NOTE 1—At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency
range applies.
NOTE 2—These guidelines may not apply in all situations.
Electromagnetic propagation is aected by absorption and
reection from structures, objects, and people.
a Field strengths from xed transmitters, such as base
stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast,
and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with
accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due
to xed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey
should be considered. If the measured eld strength in the
location in which the Zio QX is used exceeds the applicable
RF compliance level above, the Zio QX should be observed
to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is
observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as
re-orienting or relocating the Zio QX Patch.
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, eld
strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
Table 4: Recommended separation distances between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the
Zio QX
The Zio QX is intended for use in an electromagnetic
environment in which radiated RF disturbances are
controlled. The customer or the user of the Zio QX can
help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining
a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the Zio QX
as recommended below, according to the maximum output
power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not
listed above, the recommended separation distance d in
meters (m) can be determined using the equation applicable
to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum
output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1—At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance
for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2—These guidelines may not apply in all situations.
Electromagnetic propagation is aected by absorption and
reection from structures, objects, and people.
