Clinical Comparison of Electrocardiograms Collected Using an Ambulatory Holter

Completed

• Conditions: Electrocardiography
• Interventions: Device: Electrocardiogram holter

• Registration Number: NCT02383667
• Lead Sponsor: University of Toledo Health Science Campus

Brief Summary

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.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Patients with Electrocardiograms	Electrocardiogram holter	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.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Arrythmia	15 minutes	quality of data obtained between harness and holter.; Subjective evaluation: -Quality of the data will be rated on a 0 - 10 scale with 0 being unreadable and 10 being excellent
