In a world where technology reigns supreme, one of the most profound tools in medicine remains the irreplaceable electrocardiogram (ECG). This noninvasive method provides a graphical visualization of millivolt potentials received by electrodes located on the patient’s skin. It can measure many aspects, from how fast the heart beats to how well its chambers conduct electrical energy. Resting ECG and long-term electrocardiographic monitoring are among the most commonly performed tests in cardiology. Prolonged ambulatory ECG monitoring, commonly referred to as Holter testing, increases the chanc ..read more

The quality of the ECG signal is an important factor affecting the accuracy of analysis and proper interpretation, particularly for long-term ECG monitoring such as with Holter monitors or ECG patch devices. Misinterpretation can lead to a wrong diagnosis and consequently the selection of inappropriate treatment. The purpose of this article is to discuss possible ways of improving the quality of ECG signals in order to obtain more reliable results. Why does the quality of the ECG signal matter? Electrocardiography is a diagnostic procedure that measures the electrical activity of the heart. C ..read more

The Evolution of ECG Holter Devices Being hardware agnostic has always been in the DNA of Cardiomatics. Our mission is to allow users of different ECG recorders to harness the power of our state-of-the-art AI. Since the company’s inception, we have analyzed several hundreds of thousands of ECG recordings from multiple devices available on the market.
