Our Cardiac Services
Holter Monitor
A 24, 48, or 72-hour tape is a prolonged ECG (electrocardiogram) recording, widely used for monitoring a patient’s heart rate and rhythm over a time period. This test can pick up on heart rhythm problems which do not show themselves often or have not been detected by a standard ECG.
The test involves three or more electrodes (stickers) being applied to your chest which are connected by wires to a small recording device. This device will record your heart rate and rhythm for the entire duration of the recording.
During your fitting you will be:
- Invited into a private consultation room where you will be asked to undress to the waist and lie on a couch on your back.
- The doctor or nurse will prepare your skin for the device by gently exfoliating a small area of skin and then cleaning the same area with an alcohol wipe. This is to ensure the electrodes (patches) connected to device stay in place.
- Three electrodes will be attached to your chest and connected to a small light weight monitor.
After your appointment
Once the tape monitor is fitted you can get dressed and you are free to leave. The monitor must be always kept dry so do not swim, shower, or take a bath with the monitor attached to you.
If you are wearing the monitor for 48 or 72-hours, you will be given spare electrodes so you can take a shower or replace the stickers if they peel off. You must replace the electrodes and reconnect the wires in the same place as it will affect the recording if they are placed in the wrong area.
It is important that you return the monitor at the date and time given to you by the cardiac physiologist so they can be made available to other patients.
What is an exercise tolerance test (Stress test)?
An exercise tolerance test (ETT) involves measuring the performance of your heart whilst you undergo exercise on a treadmill (running machine).
How is an ETT done?
You will be invited into a private consultation room.
You will be asked to undress to the waist and the cardiac physiologist will prepare your skin for the procedure by gently exfoliating a small area of skin on your chest and then cleaning this same area with an alcohol wipe. This is to ensure the electrodes (stickers), which will be used to record the electrical activity of your heart (known as an electrocardiogram or ECG), stay on.
The electrodes are placed across the chest to record an ECG and a blood pressure cuff is placed around the upper arm. Readings are taken at regular intervals during the test.
You will be asked to walk on a treadmill; the speed and gradient of the treadmill will be increased every three minutes automatically. The test will be stopped if you develop symptoms such as fatigue (tiredness), breathlessness, tired legs, chest pain or other symptoms. The cardiac physiologist will be at your side throughout the test and your blood pressure and ECG will continually be monitored
.
You will be encouraged to exercise as much as possible during the test. However, please tell the cardiac physiologist if you feel unwell or are unable to continue.
Your appointment will last 30-40 minutes.
