Long-term ECGs are a diagnostic method that constantly records an electrocardiogram during a whole day and night.

A long-term ECG is necessary:

  • for detecting cardiac arrhythmias
  • if you suffer from heart race or nausea
  • after collapsing / unconsciousness
  • for monitoring heart rhythm stabilising therapies
  • if you suffer from thoracic pain and shortness of breath
