Case Study: Efficacy of long-term monitoring on detecting critical cardiac arrhythmias

Ambulatory ECG devices help physicians monitor heart rhythm issues outside the hospital. Unlike Holter monitors, which record for 24–48 hours, Mobile Cardiac Telemetry and Event monitors can track heart activity for up to 30 days. This study compares outcomes between shorter monitoring periods (1–14 days) and longer monitoring periods (15–30 days).
