ECG monitoring refers to the continuous or periodic measurement of a person’s heart activity using an ECG. An ECG monitor records and displays the electrical impulses generated by your heart as it beats, providing information about its rhythm, rate, and other features.
There are different types of ECG monitoring depending on the duration of recording required:
1.Resting ECG: A brief recording done while you lie still on a table or bed. Usually lasts for a few minutes.
2.Holter Monitoring: A portable device that can record your heart’s activity over 24 hours (or longer) while you go about your daily routine.

3.Event Recording/Loop Recorder: Similar to Holter Monitor but is usually worn for weeks or months at a time and only records when you activate it during specific symptoms like palpitations or fainting episodes.
ECG monitoring is used for various reasons such as diagnosing abnormal rhythms in the heartbeat, assessing risk factors for cardiovascular disease, evaluating medication effectiveness or side effects on cardiac function. It may also be recommended after certain procedures like pacemaker implantation and coronary artery bypass surgery to ensure proper functioning of these devices.
