Heart Rhythm Monitoring

Office-based heart rhythm monitoring tracks how your heart beats over time. It is often used after a stroke or when symptoms like palpitations, dizziness, or fainting do not happen during a short office visit. Small wearable devices, such as Holter or event monitors, record your heart rhythm while you go about your daily activities.

This service may be recommended if you have:

• Irregular or fast heartbeats
• Unexplained dizziness or fainting
• Symptoms that come and go

Heart rhythm monitoring is important because it can detect irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias) that may not show up on a standard ECG. Finding these issues early can lower the risk of serious problems like stroke or heart complications. It can also help improve quality of life by identifying the cause of symptoms and guiding the right treatment.

Office-based heart rhythm monitoring is convenient and cost-effective, with easy setup and follow-up compared to hospital care.  The office uses a variety of heart monitoring options, including mobile patch monitoring and implantable monitors, to evaluate your heart rhythm.
