This study aimed to compare 24 h ECG monitoring between the two devices in patients with general arrhythmia. Twenty-nine non-AF patients with a workup of pre-diagnosed arrhythmias or suspicious arrhythmic episodes were evaluated. Each participant wore both devices simultaneously, and the cardiac rhythm was monitored for 24 h. Selective ECG parameters were compared between the two devices. Two cardiologists independently compared the diagnoses of each device. The two most frequent monitoring indications were workup of premature atrial contractions (41.4%) and suspicious arrhythmia-related symptoms (37.9%). The single-lead device had a higher noise burden than the Holter device (0.04 \u00b1 0.05% vs. 0.01 \u00b1 0.01%, p = 0.024). The number of total QRS complexes, ventricular ectopic beats, and supraventricular ectopic beats showed an excellent degree of agreement between the two devices (intraclass correlation coefficients = 0.991, 1.000, and 0.987, respectively). In addition, the minimum\/average\/maximum heart rates showed an excellent degree of agreement. The two cardiologists made coherent diagnoses for all 29 participants using both monitoring methods. In conclusion, the single-lead adhesive device could be an acceptable alternative for ambulatory ECG monitoring in patients with general arrhythmia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s21093122","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,30]],"date-time":"2021-04-30T05:10:55Z","timestamp":1619759455000},"page":"3122","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":32,"title":["Validation of Adhesive Single-Lead ECG Device Compared with Holter Monitoring among Non-Atrial Fibrillation Patients"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Soonil","family":"Kwon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul 03080, Korea"}]},{"given":"So-Ryoung","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul 03080, Korea"}]},{"given":"Eue-Keun","family":"Choi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul 03080, Korea"},{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, College of Medicine, Seoul National University, Seoul 03080, Korea"}]},{"given":"Hyo-Jeong","family":"Ahn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul 03080, Korea"}]},{"given":"Hee-Seok","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Seers Technology Co., Ltd., Seongnam-si 13558, Korea"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2381-8019","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Young-Shin","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Seers Technology Co., Ltd., Seongnam-si 13558, Korea"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2504-9615","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Seil","family":"Oh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul 03080, Korea"},{"name":"Department of Internal Medicine, College of Medicine, Seoul National University, Seoul 03080, Korea"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"9","DOI":"10.2169\/internalmedicine.5691-20","article-title":"Current use and future needs of noninvasive ambulatory electrocardiogram monitoring","volume":"60","author":"Ikeda","year":"2021","journal-title":"Intern.
