The main point of HM (Holter monitoring) method is a long time ECG registration, in condition of free human living activity, with following record analysis from special devices (decoders). Main technical components of this methodic – recorder, making long time electrocardiogram record and decoder, performing record analysis.
In a standard commercial systems HM record making in 2-3 leads, lately appear 1-12 channel record recorders, where you can put information on simple audio cassette, micro cassette or hard disk. In 1995 recorders with digital electrocardiographic signal recording start enter the market.
At the last years event recorders are very popular, they allow record only defined parts of ECG, especially in time of arising symptoms and complaints.
Recorder “ELSCAN” intended for detection heart activity disturbance by long time outpatient monitoring and cardiogram recording in two leads for following analysis.
This device used in cardiological departments, practices with diagnostics and treatment heart rhythm disturbance patients, in functional diagnostics departments, for population research in mobile laboratories conditions.
This device is only for individual usage; provide full hygienic patient’s protection by using disposable components – patient’s cable, protecting cover and lace.
Recorder “ELSCAN” work under control of compatible PC software with special program package. This software work out for database support (patients, devices, observation data), loading of visualization examination data, report delivery according results of examination.
In time of clinical using in Research Institute, device has an advantage over generally accepted ECG monitoring systems.
At first place, we should mark out “ELSCAN”’s safety – small weight, full patient protecting, easy installation and device fixation on body, which don’t disturb patient’s routine life, noiselessness running.
At the second place, most physiological patient’s health condition in time of examination. Especially its concern children, whose condition are emotionally unstable.
When they are in a polyclinic, it’s hard to detect right heart rhythm disturbance, because pulse rate are raised.
“ELSCAN” has big opportunities in a sphere of variation stenocardia diagnostic, simple types of research give not enough information.
At the third place, exploitation simplicity – there is no need in professional help. You can use it in any circumstances, right up to field conditions. Device mobility (recorder, minicomputer) allow widely use it in a population research (such as prophylactic examination, mass health examination) for detection latent ischemic changes, different heart rhythm disturbance and conduction. It will allow us considerably reduce cardiovascular death rate, also – sudden death.
Thereby, system of outpatient monitoring “ELSCAN” show its high exploitation quality, sufficient safety, effective diagnostic of heart rhythm disturbance and ischemic changes, especially at the mass health examination.
