A Holter monitor is a device that is used to monitor your heart rate, similar to an electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG). However, this device is small enough to be worn on the body, so it can be used for longer periods of monitoring outside a doctor's office. Unlike a cardiac event monitor, which can be worn for weeks and only records your heart rate when activated, a Holter monitor continuously records your heart rate for 24-48 hours.
Physician order required.
Please do not order until "Cardiologist Office Visit" with chosen doctor has been completed.
