 Irvine, California-based Cardiac Monitoring
Services offers private physicians’ offices and
medical facilities with technologies designed
to monitor an individual’s heart activity.
Cardiac Monitoring Services offers two distinct
monitors, the Holter device and the event
monitor.
A Holter device can detect abnormalities
within a patient’s heart over the course of a
day or week by recording individual
heartbeats and later transmitting this data to a
medical professional so that a diagnosis can
be made
 A cardiac event recorder or monitor,
otherwise known as a transtelephonic
looping event recorder, is worn by a patient
whose symptoms do not occur frequently
enough to be detected by a Holter device.
Event monitors are often assigned to a
patient for several weeks at a time, though
an examination period of 30 days or more is
not unusual. Modern event monitors, once
they have been returned to the physician,
can undergo analysis in under 24 hours.
