A New Approach to Electrocardiographic Monitoring

Bernard Lown, MD; Raymond J. Matta, MD; Henrique W. Besser, MD

JAMA. 1975;232(1):39-43.

Abstract
A new approach to monitoring of episodic but frequently recurring arrhythmias has been developed, consisting of condensation of electrocardiographic information on a special drum recorder, a programmer that permits selection of intervals and durations for monitoring, and a telemetry unit for transmission of the electrocardiographic signal. We used this system to manage three selected cases.
