Medtronic:

Helping At-Risk Patients Take Fainting to Heart

About this Project:

To educate consumers about unexplained fainting and its link to heart health, BRG worked with Medtronic to develop the first national public awareness initiative. Through compelling patient stories, we secured national and local placements, including ABC World News (web traffic increased 68% immediately following airing) and Good Morning America, and highlighted the use of implantable monitoring devices to detect the life-threatening condition.
