The Holter monitor which was
The Holter monitor which was invented in the 1940s allows us to monitor the heart rhythm. It is named after the physicist, Norman Holter, who invented it. Take a look at the video to see the original 38 kg recorder that he wears on his back! The Holter is an ambulatory cardiac electrical test, which means that it provides an ECG while you are active not just at rest. The Holter monitor is a test that allows us to monitor the heart for 24-48 hours or longer to assess the speed of the heart or any rhythm disorders that may be present. It also allows us to see what the heart rhythm is during any symptoms that you may have. By monitoring your heart with a Holter monitor we can look for arrhythmias (heart rhythm abnormalities). The Holter monitor is a test that is commonly used to evaluate patient symptoms of lightheadedness, palpitations, and fainting. I will review the Holter test procedure and how it is performed. The importance of symptom rhythm correlation is explained with a Holter monitor so that you can get the most out of your cardiac monitoring test.
