We use Holter monitoring to get a complete picture of your heart's behaviour over 24 to 48 hours, or longer. If you're experiencing symptoms like dizziness, palpitations, or fainting spells that don't show up during a routine ECG, our Holter test helps catch what a brief test might miss.
It's simple, painless, and doesn't interrupt your daily routine.
What Is a Holter Monitor?
A Holter monitor is a small, portable device that continuously records your heart's electrical activity (ECG) over an extended period, usually 24 to 72 hours. Unlike a standard ECG, which lasts a few seconds, Holter monitoring captures your heart rhythm while you perform normal activities, including sleeping, walking, working, or exercising.
This test helps detect irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias), silent episodes of reduced blood flow, and other abnormalities that may not appear during a standard in-clinic ECG.
When Might You Need a Holter Monitor?
Our cardiologists in Varanasi may recommend Holter monitoring if you're experiencing:
- Palpitations or a fluttering sensation in your chest
- Unexplained dizziness, fainting, or fatigue
- Skipped or irregular heartbeats
- Evaluation of pacemaker or medication effectiveness
- A previous ECG or TMT showing abnormal heart rhythms
- A need to monitor existing heart conditions more closely
It's also useful for recovering from heart attacks or managing chronic heart disease.
What to Expect During Holter Monitoring
- We place small electrodes on your chest, connected to a compact recording device worn on a strap or clip.
- You'll be asked to go about your normal day while keeping a log of symptoms or events.
- After the monitoring period, you'll return the device, and our cardiologist will review the data.
- Your results are analysed alongside your symptom diary to draw meaningful conclusions.
There are no needles, no pain, and no hospital stay required.
