[HOLTER TAKES CENTER STAGE INTO FINAL INDICATION OF CARDIAC STIMULATION].
The study was performed in order to obtain specific data confirming the influence in the diagnosis of many cardiac pathologies detected by Holter heart rate. Holter heart rate of 24 hours is an electronic device, of small size, which records and stores an electrocardiographic tracing two or three leads, while the patient activities of daily life. It leads us to conduct this study increased requests we've had in our hospital and the numerous reports that have helped in the diagnosis of our patients. We base the study with statistical data, therefore, produce two databases, one that reflects the total of studies conducted in 2013 and another with patients diagnosed with cardiac stimulation and need to refer to it. Crossing these two databases get third with patients referred for cardiac stimulation Holter heart rate realized. With these data we can say that, when this test is requested, it has a great influence on the final diagnosis (87%) and there is a high probability of finding significant findings, without forgetting the clinical and personal aspects of each patient.
