I am a 81 year old female wearing an event heart monitor. What does it mean when the monitor beeps three times. We have no cell phone service at all where I live. None. could this affect monitor. Obviously it could affect the cell phone transmission. Thank you, thank you so much. The beeps are affecting my sleep.

Hi i did review your concern.
generally every heart monitoring device has different codes in form of sounds.
3 beeps of sounds are generally normally rhythm based findings and lets ICU staff know everything is fine with the patient especially at night. i believe you will eventually get acquainted with sleeping in the midst of sound of heart monitor. most patients do.
i hope this helps.
let me know if you have any more questions or concerns.
I will be more than happy to help you.
Wish you a very healthy life ahead.
