Abstract:Holter monitoring is widely used for the detection of arrhythmia and ischemic episodes. Traditionally, analog amplitude-modulated Holter devices have been used for detecting arrhythmia, but they produce signal distortion due to contour effects and phase distortion caused by the tape recorders. A digital Holter device without these disadvantages has been developed and can reproduce clinically accurate electrocardiographic waveforms useful for assessment of arrhythmia and ST segments. However, their reliability … Show more
“…Besides, digital recording avoids the use of tape recorders that introduce a new source of error related to the regularity of the tape motor 16 , 30 . As a conclusion, we can say that the 10‐minute studies performed with an A/D converter are as useful as Holter recordings for low HRV diagnosis in diabetic patients.…”

“…This article was designed to answer the following question: Are the HRV indexes obtained from short‐term analysis as useful as those from a standard Holter monitoring for diagnosis of reduced HRV in diabetic patients? To answer that question we studied HRV in two different groups: one supposed to have impaired HRV related to autonomic neuropathy (long‐evolution insulin‐dependent diabetic patients) 4 , 15‐18 and another with presumed normal HRV (healthy subjects). The HRV measurements obtained from a commercial 24‐hour Holter tape recording system were compared with those from 10‐minute digital acquired studies.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
