24-Hour Cardiac Event Monitoring
Why is 24-Hour Cardiac Event Monitoring necessary?
Your doctor may order cardiac monitoring to look for any abnormalities that could affect normal heart function.
This test is a continuous way to electronically measure heart rate and rhythm. The monitor is attached to your chest by small, sticky electrodes that record heart activity. Each beat of the heart is indicated by either a flashing light or an audible sound. The indicator is often integrated with an alarm system that is triggered by a pulse rate above or below predetermined limits.
Because the monitor is small and portable, it can be worn during normal daily activities, which can help your doctor correlate your heart activity with symptoms such as dizziness or palpitations.
