Holter/Cardiac Monitor

Holter & Cardiac Monitoring

Holter and cardiac monitors provide continuous recording of your heart’s electrical activity over an extended period, typically 24 hours to several weeks. These portable devices help detect irregular heart rhythms, palpitations, dizziness, fainting episodes, and other symptoms that may not appear during a standard ECG. By monitoring your heart during normal daily activities, your physician can gain valuable insights to accurately diagnose and manage cardiovascular conditions.
