Standard ECG just provides a brief sample of the electrical activity of the heart over mere 10 seconds, whereas the Holter provides a view of the electrical activity of the heart over 24 hours. Sometimes we may not get a clear understanding of a patient problem by looking at 10 seconds data. We may need data of a longer duration.
Holter comprises a small, lightweight, electrode that continuously records ECG data. It reviews ECG data during routine activity, as well as during periods of physical and psychological stress.
The cost of the holter starts from Rs 2000 per day
You may need medications, pacemaker, or ablation procedure depending on the type of abnormality
Unexplained syncope, near syncope, or episodic dizziness
