Abstract
An ambulatory recorder having an enhanced ergonomic case is described. The case has a smooth curved semi-circular surface within a first plane along the top surface while further having an at least partially curved surface along a second end. These curved surfaces render the recorder less likely to be caught on objects or on the patient's arms or hands while worn. The recorder is thus more comfortable to wear and operate.
