This is a 24-hour electrocardiogram used to evaluate the heart rhythm and Electrocardiogram appearance during an entire day. Several electrodes are applied to the chest and/or a vest may also be provided to keep them in place. The monitor, which resembles a portable CD player, is stored in a comfortable belt and worn at the waist virtually undetectable under regular clothing. The patient performs relatively normal day-to-day activities and is asked to keep a diary to note activities and symptomsthat may be noticed during the recording.
