Ensuring a review. In order to ensure a review by Boston Scientific of the patient’s implanted device data, the clinician must call Boston Scientific at 1-800-CARDIAC (227-3422) or contact a local Boston Scientific representative after sending the data to request a LATITUDE Consult review. At all times the institution (clinic) is responsible for the clinical and technical interpretation of LATITUDE Consult reports. The institution acknowledges that if a technical consultation on the data is desired, an institution employee may call 1-800-CARDIAC (227-3422) or contact a local Boston Scientific representative to request a technical review by Boston Scientific. A local Boston Scientific representative may also be notified to assist with technical support of the device. If the institution requests reports to be sent automatically and does not receive a report within 15 minutes of a LATITUDE Consult transmission to Boston Scientific, the institution should call 1-800-CARDIAC (227-3422) or contact a local Boston Scientific representative to receive LATITUDE Consult System status; it is the institution’s responsibility, and not Boston Scientific’s, to ensure that the report is received by the institution.
