  • 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.

    Thanks sir for well explained procedure, what if in a forest where like treating wounded soldiers or with patient stucked in an island where power source for such equipments are nil and those machines such as holter monitor and defibrillator/ cardioverter machines were out of power for example in a situational basis, are there wireless energy transfer machines whose energy receptors can received transmitted powers wirelessly if ever there's such, how far a distance can those machines be reloaded wirelessly or are the wireless energy transfer tech affected by climate such as windy, stormy, very hot, very cold etc, because having long range or long distance wireless energy transfer technology GPS guided or not by power tower sandwichings as within their overlapping range and climate proof energy transfer to those life saving or resuscitation machines, can be of high value in the market and business.

    Does this test give a better picture of a patient's condition than 2D echo ?

    • @MedicinewithDrMoran
      @MedicinewithDrMoran  3 роки тому

      Siva, it gives different information which is additive to the echo. You can see the heart rhythm throughout the entire monitoring and it allows you to look at heart rates, rhythm disturbances and whether patient symptoms corelate with an abnormality of rhythm.

      @@MedicinewithDrMoran Thanks Doctor , appreciate your response. I am from India. I am getting heart palpitations and my family doctor asked me to take this test. I believe my condition is due to anxiety triggered due to my dad's hospitalization. I was asked to take few meds for 3 days and if it doesn't subside , I need to take this test.
