About

The objective of the study is to compare electrocardiograms using ambulatory holter monitor with dry electrodes in a harness versus using an ambulatory holter with standard sticky electrodes (Red Dot) on monitored patients within the hospital. Patients will be simultaneously be hooked up to two ambulatory Holter monitors for the period of time to be not less than one hour. One holter will use standard electrodes in a standard electrode distribution. The second holter will use dry electrodes in a derived.

Enrollment: 20 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Any patient within the hospital either for procedure or for admission

Exclusion criteria

• Patients who cannot wear a Holter monitor
• Patients undergoing an MRI or have other contraindications for wearing an ambulatory Holter monitor.

Patients with Electrocardiograms

Description:

Any patient within the hospital either for procedure or for admission will be screened. Patients will be simultaneously be hooked up to two ambulatory Holter monitors for the period of time to be not less than one hour. One holter will use standard electrodes in a standard electrode distribution. The second holter will use dry electrodes in a derived; data will be collected for 1-6 hours. After the data is collected the Holters will be removed and the data will be downloaded into the reading software to be scanned.
