Study: Progression of Ambulatory Cardiac (AECG) Monitoring
With so many cardiac monitoring companies pushing so many variations in AECG monitoring, how can one keep track? The Journal of American College of Cardiology released a study in recent years that analyzes the progression of ambulatory cardiac (AECG) monitoring technologies. This study provides helpful insight from traditional Holter & loop event monitors to newer forms of mobile cardiac telemetry & long term continuous ECG monitoring.
Features of the AECG Monitoring Study Include:
- Interpretation of the ACC / AHA Guidelines for AECG monitoring
- Use of 24 Holter monitoring
- Use of loop cardiac event monitors
- Use of mobile cardiac telemetry monitors
- Use of long term continuous ECG monitoring (via patch)
- Application for atrial fibrillation monitoring
- Limitations & strengths of mobile telemetry monitor technology
- Indications of use for each form of ambulatory cardiac monitoring
- Billing, CPT codes & reimbursement estimates for all forms of AECG monitoring
- Recommendations for each form of ambulatory cardiac monitoring
- Useful tables & diagrams for helpful comparisons
