Our clinic is happy to introduce to you our new heart diagnostic test to give the best care to your pet ❤️
The HOLTER machine
In a nutshell, the HOLTER machine is:
A 24-hour (or more) ElectroCardioGram (more known to many as an ECG) recording that is carried out while the animal is "wearing" a recorder. This allows the cardiologist to analyze the rhythm and rate of the heart throughout the day and night of the pet, whether it's a cat, a dog or a horse, with activities documented in a diary by the owner.
It is a very important diagnostic tool especially for certain breeds like Boxers and Doberman pinschers that might have occult DCM with no clinic signs and symptoms.
In other breeds with arrhythmia finding during routine vet visits, those being treated with antiarrhythmic drugs, pets with unexplained fainting or those with heart conditions that could increase the risk of arrhythmias, HOLTER monitor could be a very important tool.
