What should I do if the patch falls off?
If the patch comes loose, you can add some extra tape (e.g. Micropore) or a film dressing (e.g. Tegaderm) to help stick it down. These items should be available from Boots, a local Pharmacy or large supermarket. Once in place, apply continuous pressure across the patch for 2 minutes to try and re-adhere it.
If the patch falls off completely and can’t be reattached, please return it to iRhythm in the postage-paid box for analysis.
