Holter monitoring in PMG Hospital
About the clinic
Holter monitoring at PMG Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand, provides a 24-hour continuous recording of the heart's electrical activity. This diagnostic tool is used to detect hidden abnormal heart rhythms and evaluate the cause of palpitations or fainting episodes. The examination is performed at the PMG Heart Center, which holds the Global Healthcare Accreditation (GHA) Conformance seal for international patient standards.
Diagnostic Features and Equipment
The clinic uses a portable ECG Holter monitor that patients wear during their normal daily activities. This device attaches to the chest via small electrodes to track the heart rate response to various movements and rest. The specific monitor used at the hospital includes a dedicated symptom-tracking button. Patients press this button whenever they feel dizziness or palpitations to correlate their symptoms directly with the recorded heart data.
Procedure Details and Preparation
The examination follows a specific outpatient protocol. A medical professional places the electrodes on the chest, and the patient carries the device in a pocket or on a provided belt. Men with chest hair may need to have small areas shaved to ensure the electrodes adhere properly. To protect the recording and the equipment, patients must follow these guidelines during the 24-hour period:
- Daily restrictions. Avoid bathing, showering, or swimming while wearing the device.
- Activity limits. Refrain from vigorous arm exercises that could loosen the electrodes.
- Environmental safety. Stay away from X-ray rooms, high-voltage areas, and strong electromagnetic fields.
- Device care. Keep the monitor secure and do not drop it.
Results and Setting
The diagnostic process is entirely outpatient, meaning no hospital stay is necessary. After 24 hours of continuous recording, the patient returns to the clinic for device removal. A specialist then analyzes the collected data to assess heart rate patterns and post-treatment efficacy. You can request a consultation for this diagnostic through Bookimed to confirm availability at the PMG Heart Center.
