A Holter monitor is an external device you will wear for 24-48 hours. The device monitors heart activity over the designated time frame. This test allows the physician to correlate your symptoms with the actual heart rhythm noted. Your results will be available about three days after they are interpreted.

1. Check in at front desk.
2. Come to Pacemaker/Event/Holter monitoring clinic.
3. Apply EKG pads.
4. Wear monitor 24 to 48 hours.
5. Return monitor after time needed is complete to front desk.
