Holter Monitor
Continuous Cardiac Monitoring for Accurate Diagnosis
We are committed to providing comprehensive cardiac care through advanced diagnostic technologies. Our Holter Monitor services offer continuous, 24-hour heart monitoring to help diagnose and manage various cardiac conditions.
What is a Holter Monitor?
A Holter Monitor is a portable device used to continuously record your heart’s electrical activity over a period of 24 to 48 hours. It provides a detailed picture of your heart’s rhythm, allowing us to detect irregularities that may not be captured during a standard ECG (electrocardiogram) test.
Why is a Holter Monitor Important?
- Detecting Arrhythmias: The Holter Monitor helps in identifying irregular heart rhythms or arrhythmias that can cause symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or fainting.
- Evaluating Chest Pain: For patients experiencing unexplained chest pain, a Holter Monitor provides valuable data on heart activity during the symptoms.
- Assessing Pacemaker Function: If you have a pacemaker or other cardiac device, the Holter Monitor can help in assessing its performance and effectiveness.
- Monitoring Heart Conditions: It is useful for monitoring ongoing heart conditions and assessing the effectiveness of medications or treatments.
Procedure:
The Holter Monitor test is non-invasive and straightforward. During the procedure:
- Electrode Placement: Small electrodes are attached to your chest with adhesive pads. These electrodes are connected to a small, portable recording device.
- Device Use: You will wear the device on a belt or shoulder strap for 24 to 48 hours while going about your daily activities.
- Data Collection: The device continuously records your heart’s activity throughout the monitoring period.
- Data Analysis: After the monitoring period, you return the device, and the recorded data is analyzed to evaluate your heart’s rhythm and identify any abnormalities.
