Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Holter is to monitor your heart rate and rhythm variation in association with your normal daily activities. Do not deviate from your normal routine and do not interfere the machine recording.

Once the study is complete, the analysis of it by a cardiologist will help to identify the problems and manage accordingly.
