`
`A Holter monitor is a machine that continuously records the heart's rhythms. The
`monitor is worn for 24 to 48 hours during normal activity.
`
`During a heart Holter monitor study, the patient wears a monitor that records electrical activity of their
`heart (similarly to the recording of an electrocardiogram). This usually occurs for 24 hours, while at the
`same time the patient also records a diary of their activity. Health care providers then analyze the
`recording, tabulate a report of the heart's activity, and correlate irregular heart activity with the entries of
`the patient's diary.

`pocket or pouch worn around your neck or waist. The monitor runs on batteries.
`(https://www.mountsinai.org/about/covid19).
`
`x
`
`While you wear the monitor, it records your heart's electrical activity.
`
`Keep a diary of what activities you do while wearing the monitor, and how
`you feel.
`After 24 to 48 hours, you will return the monitor to your health care
`provider's office.
`The provider will look at the records and see if there have been any
`abnormal heart rhythms.
`
`It is very important that you accurately record your symptoms and activities so
`the provider can match them with your Holter monitor findings.
`
`Electrodes must be firmly attached to the chest so the machine gets an accurate
`recording of the heart's activity.
`
`While wearing the device, avoid:
`
`Electric blankets
`High-voltage areas
`Magnets
`Metal detectors
`
`Continue your normal activities while wearing the monitor. You may be asked to
`exercise while being monitored if your symptoms have occurred in the past while
`you were exercising.
`
`How to Prepare for the Test
`
`You do not need to prepare for the test.
`
`Your provider will start the monitor. You'll be told how to replace the electrodes if
`they fall off or get loose.
`
`Tell your provider if you are allergic to any tape or other adhesives. Make sure you
`shower or bathe before you start the test. You will not be able to do so while you
`are wearing a Holter monitor.

`shaved so the electrodes can stick.
`
`Holter monitor (24h) Information | Mount Sinai - New York
`
`x
`
`You must keep the monitor close to your body. This may make it hard for you to
`sleep.
`
`Occasionally there may be an uncomfortable skin reaction to the sticky
`electrodes. You should call the provider's office where it was placed to tell them
`about it.
`
`Why the Test is Performed
`
`Holter monitoring is used to determine how the heart responds to normal activity.
`The monitor may also be used:
`
`After a heart attack (/health-library/diseases-conditions/heart-attack)
`To diagnose heart rhythm problems that may be causing symptoms such as
`palpitations (/health-library/symptoms/heart-palpitations) or syncope
`(passing out/fainting (/health-library/symptoms/fainting))
`When starting a new heart medicine
`
`Heart rhythms which may be recorded include:
`
`Atrial fibrillation or flutter (/health-library/diseases-conditions/atrial-
`fibrillation-or-flutter)
`Multifocal atrial tachycardia (/health-library/diseases-conditions/multifocal-
`atrial-tachycardia)
`Paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (/health-library/diseases-
`conditions/paroxysmal-supraventricular-tachycardia-psvt)
`Slow heart rate (bradycardia)
`Ventricular tachycardia (/health-library/diseases-conditions/ventricular-
`tachycardia)
`
`Normal Results
`
`Normal variations in heart rate occur with activities. A normal result is no
`significant changes in heart rhythms or pattern.

`
`Risks
`
`Other than the uncommon skin reaction, there are no risks associated with the
`test. However, you should be sure not to let the monitor get wet.
