What is Holter ECG?
The Holter ECG is a modern, non-invasive diagnostic method that continuously monitors the electrical activity of the heart over an extended period of time, most often 24 to 48 hours and, if necessary, even longer. During the examination the patient wears a small portable device that records the heart's activity under everyday conditions – during activity, rest and sleep.
Unlike a standard ECG examination, which lasts only a few minutes, the Holter ECG allows long-term monitoring of the heart rhythm and helps detect transient disturbances that may not occur during an examination in the doctor's office.
The Holter ECG is most commonly used to:
- detect heart rhythm disorders (arrhythmias),
- assess the causes of palpitations or skipped heartbeats,
- investigate symptoms such as dizziness, fainting or a feeling of weakness,
- monitor the heart's activity in patients with known heart diseases,
- check the effects of therapy for heart rhythm disorders,
- assess the functioning of a pacemaker in patients who have one.
The examination is painless and safe. After the wearing of the device is completed, the physician analyzes the recorded data and, based on the results, provides an expert opinion and recommendations for further monitoring or treatment.

Symptoms
Holter ECG is recommended when there is a need for detailed monitoring of the heart's activity and detection of changes in heart rhythm that cannot always be recorded during a standard ECG examination.
The most common symptoms and reasons for performing a Holter ECG examination include:
- a feeling of pounding, skipping or irregular heartbeat,
- a rapid or slow heartbeat,
- dizziness and a feeling of instability,
- brief loss of consciousness or a feeling that you are about to faint,
- unexplained fatigue and weakness,
- discomfort or pain in the chest,
- difficulty breathing during activity or at rest,
- suspected heart rhythm disorders,
- monitoring of patients with known heart conditions,
- monitoring the effects of therapy for arrhythmias.
Holter ECG allows the doctor to analyze the heart's activity during everyday activities and, based on the results obtained, to assess whether there are rhythm disorders and whether further treatment or additional diagnostics is needed.
