title: Holter monitoring and cardiac event recording.
abstract: The detection and characterization of transient arrhythmias is possible with continuous ambulatory electrocardiography (Holter monitoring) or cardiac event recording. These techniques have significantly increased our appreciation of transient arrhythmias, often undetected with routine echocardiography and have provided highly sensitive means to assess need and efficacy of antiarrhythmic therapy. Correlation of heart rate and arrhythmia with the patient's activity or clinical signs is also possible.
