A 24-hour Holter monitor is a portable device that continuously records your heart’s electrical activity for a full day. It helps identify irregular heart rhythms and symptoms that may not appear during a standard ECG.
Medications: Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin, DOACs) to prevent stroke; rate or rhythm control drugs (beta-blockers, amiodarone). Procedures: Electrical cardioversion or catheter ablation for persistent AF. Lifestyle: Controlling blood pressure, avoiding excessive alcohol, managing sleep apnea
Medications: Antiarrhythmic drugs (e.g., amiodarone, sotalol). Procedures: Implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placement or catheter ablation. Lifestyle: Avoiding triggers like stimulant drugs or electrolyte imbalances
Medications: Adjusting or stopping medications that slow heart rate (e.g., beta-blockers). Procedures: Pacemaker implantation if bradycardia is symptomatic or dangerous. Monitoring: Regular follow-up with ECG/Holter to assess rhythm stability
Irregular and often rapid heart rhythm originating in the atria
Fast, potentially life-threatening rhythm originating from the ventricles.
Abnormally slow heart rhythm, which may cause dizziness, fatigue, or fainting
