Holter ECG monitoring is a valuable diagnostic technique in both cardiac arrhythmias and ischemic heart disease, known for over 30 years. Current methods of ST segment analyses require the use of computers. Myocardial ischemia is diagnosed if ST segment deviation from isoelectric axis is at least 1 mm, duration of this change is at least 1 minute, and interval is at least 1 minute. There are four ways to measure ST segment deviation from isoelectric axis: measurement of "area of given surface", mean length of ST segment, measurement of the real time of ST segment duration, and optic technique. Use of appropriate leads system is always necessary.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D003327 Coronary Disease An imbalance between myocardial functional requirements and the capacity of the CORONARY VESSELS to supply sufficient blood flow. It is a form of MYOCARDIAL ISCHEMIA (insufficient blood supply to the heart muscle) caused by a decreased capacity of the coronary vessels.

D001145 Arrhythmias, Cardiac Any disturbances of the normal rhythmic beating of the heart or MYOCARDIAL CONTRACTION. Cardiac arrhythmias can be classified by the abnormalities in HEART RATE, disorders of electrical impulse generation, or impulse conduction.

D015716 Electrocardiography, Ambulatory Method in which prolonged electrocardiographic recordings are made on a portable tape recorder (Holter-type system) or solid-state device ("real-time" system), while the patient undergoes normal daily activities. It is useful in the diagnosis and management of intermittent cardiac arrhythmias and transient myocardial ischemia.
