These beats may be sinus, atrial, or nodal in origin.

Characteristics include: P wave if sinus or atrial origin, no P wave if nodal origin, or changes in the P wave such as: inverte notche. Ambulatory means walking or. Holter monitors are tools of proven efficacy in diagnosing and monitoring cardiac arrhythmias.

Despite the fact their use is widely prescribed by general practitioners, little is known about their evolving role in the management of patients with cryptogenic stroke, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, unexplained recurrent syncope and risk stratification in implantable cardioverter defibrillator or pacemaker candidates.

It will take approximately minutes to hook up the recorder and give you instructions. The patient should keep a diary of their activities and symptoms during this period.

It continuously records ECG from two or three leads using electrodes on the skin for hours, hours, or up to two weeks with newer devices.
