Abstract

Holter monitoring has been recognized as an useful noninvasive instrument for monitoring the cardiac electrical activity over 24 to 48 hours. Because the surface electrocardiogram (ECG) is recorded only for several seconds to minutes, it often misses or underestimates the underlying arrhythmia. The surface ECG is also easily influenced by depolarization potentials from skeletal muscle by the movement of patient (especially muscle tremor). However, holter monitoring is less affected by such factors. There has been no precedential report in veterinary medicine applying digital holter monitor with unipolar precordial chest lead using 4 electrodes. This article describes its clinical indications, equipment and technical application method in dogs.
