What is a 24 hour Holter Monitor?

A 24-hour Holter monitor is a portable device that continuously records a person's heart activity for a 24-hour period. It is used to detect abnormal heartbeats or arrhythmias that may not be apparent during a regular doctor's visit. The monitor consists of electrodes that are attached to the chest and connected to a small recording device that can be worn in a pouch or carried in a pocket. The recorded data is then analyzed by a healthcare provider to identify any abnormal heart patterns. The 24-hour Holter monitor is a non-invasive test that provides valuable information for diagnosing and managing various heart conditions.
