Abstract

See full text

A method for performing ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring on an adult female is provided. An ambulatory ECG monitor, that includes a plurality of sensing electrodes coupled to self-powered sensing circuitry, is provisioned. A monitoring site is located on the surface of a patient's chest at midline and above the body of the sternum adjacent to the fourth and fifth intercostal spaces between the breasts in the upper portion of the intermammary cleft. The electrodes are aligned and placed along the midline. Interference from breast tissue with placement of the ambulatory monitor at the monitoring site is evaluated. The ambulatory ECG monitor is removably adhered to the monitoring site clear of any breast tissue interference for the duration of monitoring. ECG data is sensed through the sensing electrodes at the monitoring site and the sensed ECG data is recorded into the sensing circuitry.
