Photo of R Test ECG monitor

As promised, photo attached of the neat little 7 day monitor I have until next Tuesday. You take it off to shower, they gave me lots of spare electrode stickers which have a press stud faster on which you just press the monitor and lead onto. Just have to take care not to press any of the buttons whilst repositioning.

I have to press the black button in the middle if Ifeel dizzy or have chest pain, palpitations etc & it does an enhanced 15 second recording during which you are asked to keep still and jot down time, symptom & activity at the time on a chart. Having a good week & only pressed it twice so far.

Will keep you posted with results

Looks dinky....I had one that was a little bit bigger with two leads, but was no trouble.

Not Pat for Patrick then......😉

Looks great. I know the full name thing. I was always ROBERT ! when I did anything wrong. Actually my family never called me anything less and my sister is always Elizabeth. At school and then work I was alway D--- unless something bad when I was Mr D---.

I had the same one but was allergic to the sticky pads and developed horrible blisters. Good luck with it x

Think someone on here asks for children’s pads as they react as you do. I was worried as I had the Olympic Rings on my chest for weeks after only 24 hours of a Holter monitor, but so far so good with this one.
