A Holter monitor allows for ambulatory monitoring, providing a more comprehensive assessment of a patient’s heart activity during their daily activities.
Key Features:
Continuous Monitoring:
Provides continuous, long-term monitoring of the heart’s electrical activity, allowing for the detection of intermittent or infrequent cardiac abnormalities.
12-Lead Configuration:
Utilizes a 12-lead configuration, offering a more detailed and comprehensive view of the heart’s electrical signals compared to standard Holter monitors with fewer leads.
Ambulatory Monitoring:
Allows patients to go about their daily activities while being monitored, providing a more accurate representation of their heart’s behavior in real-life scenarios.
Event Button:
Often equipped with an event button that patients can press when they experience symptoms, helping to correlate specific events with changes in the ECG recording.
Digital Signal Processing:
Utilizes advanced digital signal processing technology to enhance signal clarity and reduce noise, ensuring accurate recordings.
Application:
Arrhythmia Detection:
Used for the detection and monitoring of various cardiac arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and ventricular tachycardia.
Intermittent Symptoms:
Ideal for patients experiencing intermittent symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or fainting, as it allows for correlation between symptoms and ECG recordings.
Post-Treatment Monitoring:
After cardiac procedures or treatments, Holter monitoring helps assess the effectiveness of interventions and monitor for any recurrence of cardiac issues.
Research and Clinical Trials:
Utilized in research settings and clinical trials to gather long-term data on cardiac activity for analysis and study purposes.
