Ambulatory electrocardiography: indications and devices

Abstract: Cardiac electrical abnormalities are common, and result in considerable morbidity and mortality. Although diagnosis can sometimes be made from the resting 12-lead ECG, a longer period of monitoring is often required to capture diagnostic information.

“…Ambulatory ECG. Ambulatory ECG (AECG) devices allow the cardiac rhythm to be monitored and recorded over days, weeks, or years and are used primarily in the outpatient setting [30]. Recording may take place continuously or occur intermittently in response to patient activation or autosensing of rhythm disturbances.…”

“…Currently, understanding these factors relies on diaries, which are subjective and often either not completed, lost, or of insufficient accuracy to be useful. 1 , 2 For example, without a highly accurate patient diary, it is currently not possible to know if a person’s episodes of atrial fibrillation (AF) occur only during exercise, or, alternatively, whether someone’s sinus pauses only occur during sleep, which could be daytime sleep. The ability to provide objective physiologic data could reduce or eliminate the reliance on diary information for rhythm and symptom interpretation.…”
