Abstract
Background: Ambulatory Holter monitor was developed to allow remote ECG monitoring of patients with suspected cardiac arrhythmias. It was first introduced by the American biophysicist Norman J. Holter in the 1940s. In recent years, there has been significant advancements in remote cardiac monitoring. The choice of the ECG-monitoring modality depends on the presenting symptom, symptom frequency, and degree of suspicion of a life-threatening arrhythmia.
