All were monitored by patient\u2010triggered CER with continuous automatic arrhythmia detection.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>: After a mean monitoring period of 103 \u00b1 38 h, 83 patients registered symptoms and 57 patients had diagnostic or therapeutic relevant arrhythmias (relA). A total of 196 episodes of relA were recorded; 31 (16%) episodes were patient\u2010triggered and 165 (84%) automatically recorded. Diagnostic relevant episodes (relA and\/or typical symptoms) occurred in 94 patients, in 54% after the first 24 h of monitoring. According to the results of the CER, 80 patients needed no further diagnostic evaluation; 20 had additional diagnostic tests.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:italic>Conclusions<\/jats:italic>: Cardiac event recorders with a continuous automatic arrhythmia detection function are a well\u2010tolerated device for sporadic, potentially arrhythmia\u2010related symptoms. The patient\u2010triggered mode alone is not sufficiently reliable; the automatic continuous arrhythmia detection function has additional diagnostic and therapeutic consequences. In 54% of all patients, the first diagnostic event would not have been recorded with a single conventional 24\u2010h\u2010Holter ECG.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/clc.4960260405","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,6,27]],"date-time":"2007-06-27T16:50:35Z","timestamp":1182963035000},"page":"173-176","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":31,"title":["Diagnostic yield of automatic and patient\u2010triggered ambulatory cardiac event recording in the evaluation of patients with palpitations, dizziness, or syncope"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"26","author":[{"given":"Nicola","family":"Balmelli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Barbara","family":"Naegeli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Osmund","family":"Bertel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.1990.00040031685016"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9343(82)90913-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9149(96)00766-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-128-11-199806010-00002"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9149(90)90591-N"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9149(96)00717-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-124-1_Part_1-199601010-00003"},{"issue":"97","key":"e_1_2_1_9_2","first-page":"29S","article-title":"Prospektive Vergleichsuntersuchung eines Aktivierungs\u2010Holters mit einem konventionellen Holter\u2010EKG bei Patienten mit Synkopen, Pr\u00e4synkopen and Palpitationen","volume":"128","author":"Simonetti G","year":"1998","journal-title":"Schweiz Med Wochenschr"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9149(97)00614-0"}],"container-title":["Clinical Cardiology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1002%2Fclc.4960260405","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/clc.4960260405","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,17]],"date-time":"2023-11-17T06:10:14Z","timestamp":1700201414000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/clc.4960260405"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2003,4]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2003,4]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/clc.4960260405"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/clc.4960260405","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0160-9289","1932-8737"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0160-9289","type":"print"},{"value":"1932-8737","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2003,4]]}}}
