24-hour Holter ECG Monitoring: Accurate Heart Diagnostics
24-hour Holter ECG monitoring is a non-invasive method of long-term electrocardiogram recording (usually 24–48 hours, sometimes up to 7 days) that captures heart function in real-life daily conditions of the patient. At the "Ala Atlantis" medical center, Holter monitoring is performed using modern equipment, followed by detailed analysis by a cardiologist. The method allows detecting hidden rhythm disturbances, myocardial ischemia, and other problems that cannot be “captured” during a standard ECG in a doctor's office.

What is 24-hour Holter ECG monitoring and how does it work?
Holter monitoring is a portable recorder that the patient wears on the body for 24 hours (or longer). The device records every heartbeat, rhythm changes, episodes of ischemia, pauses, extrasystoles, and other abnormalities during normal activities: work, walking, sleep, stress, and physical exertion. At "Ala Atlantis", the procedure is simple and comfortable:
- A small recorder is attached to the waist or chest.
- Electrodes are applied to the skin (in most models they do not interfere with showering).
- The patient keeps a diary: records sleep time, physical activity, pain episodes, and medication intake.
- After 24–48 hours, the device is removed, data is uploaded into the system, and a cardiologist performs analysis (usually within 1–2 days).
The method eliminates inaccuracies of a standard ECG: “white coat syndrome”, anxiety during the appointment, and influence of random factors. Holter provides an objective picture of heart function in real life. Want to know what happens to your heart at night, during stress, or physical activity? Book a Holter monitoring today!
