Ambulatory External Electrocardiographic Monitoring
Open accessAbstract
There has been progressive development in ambulatory external electrocardiogram (AECG) monitoring technology. AECG monitors initially consisted of 24- to 48-h Holter monitors and patient-activated event and loop recorders. More recently, several ambulatory cardiovascular telemetry monitors and a patch-type 7- to 14-day Holter monitor have been introduced. These monitoring systems are reviewed along with their utility and limitations, with particular emphasis on their role in the diagnosis and evaluation of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). AECG monitoring is necessary when asymptomatic AF is suspected (as in patients presenting with cryptogenic stroke) or when an ECG diagnosis of unexplained arrhythmic symptoms is warranted. In addition, AECG plays an important role in patients with known AF to guide ventricular rate control and anticoagulation therapy, and assess the efficacy of antiarrhythmic drug therapy and/or ablation procedures. Finally, we outline areas of uncertainty and provide recommendations for use of available AECG monitors in clinical practice.

“In addition, other arrhythmic causes of symptoms, such as atrial flutter, atrial tachycardia, atrial ectopy, and others can usually be differentiated from AF, especially with multilead recordings (Mittal et al., 2011).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
