24-hour Holter ECG in Puerto Vallarta

Continuous recording of heart rate during your daily life. Ambulatory, non-invasive study, performed in a hospital environment.

What problem does it help you solve?

Holter ECG is useful when symptoms do not appear in a short consultation and you need to evaluate the heart rhythm throughout the day and night.

It is frequently requested if you present:

  • Sporadic or intermittent palpitations.

  • Episodes of tachycardia or irregular heartbeats that “come and go”.

  • Dizziness, fainting or feeling of weakness without clear cause.

  • Nocturnal or waking symptoms.

  • Arrhythmia monitoring or treatment evaluation.

What problem does it help you solve?

The Holter ECG is an ambulatory electrocardiogram that continuously records the electrical activity of the heart for 24 hours while you perform your usual activities.

Unlike a resting ECG, it allows to observe how the heart rhythm behaves during the day, at night and during sleep.

What do you get at the end?

  • Detailed clinical report of the complete record.

  • Clear explanation of the findings, without technicalities.

  • Recommendation for next step: follow-up, treatment adjustment or complementary studies, depending on your case.

The difference Dr. Castolo

The value of the Holter is not just in “wearing the equipment”, but in how the information is interpreted.

Here the record is analyzed clinically, correlating the findings with your symptoms and activities, to obtain useful and clear conclusions.
