Are there any the risks?
A Holter ECG is a non-invasive test.
Special considerations:
- The Holter Monitor may not be used in the shower.
- Electrodes must be firmly attached to the chest – it is not allowed to remove the device or the electrodes so the equipment gets an accurate recording of the heart’s activity.
- Avoid magnets, metal detectors, electric blankets and high-voltage areas while wearing the digital holter.
