Abstract
Cardiac events recorders have been developed in order to record the heart rhythm during symptoms such as palpitations or presyncope, to first make a diagnosis, and subsequently drive the treatment strategy. In other circumstances, they can be also used in asymptomatic patients (to record silent atrial fibrillation for instance). Because they are non-invasive, potentially cost-saving and relatively easy to use, the external rhythm recording devices have shown some great advances in the last years, spreading from photoplethysmographic technique to real ECG reconstruction. Technological advances in the field of microelectronics, as well as in the field of data transmission have contributed to their widespread use in cardiology. The trend for miniaturization was also expanded to the implantable recorders. This paper will review will review advantages and limitations of the different existing available well-established recording devices, as well as the last technological developments in terms of ECG recordings.
