A Holter Monitor is a portable device used to continuously record the heart's electrical activity, typically for 24 to 48 hours. Unlike a standard EKG, which provides a brief snapshot, this extended monitoring captures arrhythmias or irregularities that occur during daily activities or sleep. ⏱️

Tracking every heartbeat over an extended period allows Doctors to correlate symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or syncope with specific cardiac events. It's an essential diagnostic tool for identifying heart rhythm disorders that "hide" during routine clinical exams. 🩺
