A portable ECG monitor worn continuously for 48 hours to investigate intermittent heart rhythm symptoms.
£300
Results in 5–7 working days
A 48-hour Holter monitor continuously records your heart's electrical activity while you carry on with your normal daily activities. Compared with a standard 24-hour recording, the longer monitoring period increases the chance of detecting intermittent rhythm abnormalities that do not occur every day. Once analysed, one of our GPs will review the report and explain the findings in plain English, including whether any further assessment may be appropriate.
