[Transponder ECG].
Apart from X-rays, the electrocardiogram (ECG) is probably the most frequently employed routine investigation. The 24-hour (Holter) ECG is a valuable diagnostic tool both for the general practitioner and the cardiologist. For the patient, the procedure can be experienced as something of a nuisance during the course of his/her normal life. Not least of the reasons for this are the leads connecting the electrodes to the device, which impair the movements of the patient's trunk. In addition, the patient feels constrained by a desire to avoid the disconnection of the electrodes by uncontrolled movements. Despite positive findings obtained by other means, this situation often leads to false negative results, making repetition of the procedure at some later date.
