Cardiomemo and event recorder *

Cardiomemo and event recorders are more sophisticated versions of the basic Holter monitor. Whenever you have an attack of symptoms, you can activate the device to record your heart’s rhythm. (You can also do this with the digital Holter.)

The advantage of the cardiomemo is that it doesn’t have any leads, so you can just place it on your chest when you get symptoms, without having to put any leads in position.
