title: Twenty-four hours ambulatory monitoring: a new electrocardiographic tool.
abstract: In summary, this author has been able to assist in alerting the physician to the critical findings of his patients' cardiac analyses so that immediate medical intervention could be initiated. The implications for such a tool are far-reaching. Heart disease is still America's number one killer, but with devices such as this one, advances are being made to undermine its life-threatening effects.
