Electrocardiographic rhythm disturbance evaluation by Holter monitoring is increasingly becoming a useful methodologic tool for risk stratification as well as for therapeutic assessment in patients with Chagas' disease. Furthermore, late potential analyses, now being directly obtained from Holter recording has promising perspectives in enhancing identification of patients with high risk profiles for development of malignant ventricular arrhythmias. In addition, recently incorporated to Holter studies, heart rate variability analysis will certainly contribute to a better understanding of the characteristic autonomic nervous system disarray that commonly affects chagasic patients.
