摘 要：Palpitations are one of the most common reasons for medical consultation. Theytend to worry patients and can affect their quality of life. They are often asymptom associated with cardiac rhythm disorders, although there are otheretiologies. For diagnosis, it is essential to be able to reliably correlate the symptomswith an electrocardiographic record allowing the identification or rulingout of a possible rhythm disorder. However, reaching a diagnosis is not alwayssimple, given that they tend to be transitory symptoms and the patient isfrequently asymptomatic at the time of assessment. In recent years, electrocardiographicmonitoring systems have incorporated many technical improvements thatsolve several of the 24-h Holter monitor limitations. The objective of this review isto provide an update on the different monitoring methods currently available,remarking their indications and limitations, to help healthcare professionals toappropriately select and use them in the work-up of patients with palpitations.
