At Heart Experts of Florida, the “Event Monitor” refers to a non‑continuous but extended cardiac rhythm monitoring service. It is designed for patients who experience intermittent symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, fainting (syncope), or unexplained shortness of breath — symptoms that may not occur during the few minutes of a standard ECG in the clinic but may happen sporadically.
Their webpage describes this under their “Holter/Event Monitors: Comprehensive Cardiac Monitoring for Accurate Diagnosis” offering. In practical terms, the Event Monitor is a device that the patient wears (typically as an external patch, belt, or chest‑strap) for hours or days. It continuously records the heart’s electrical activity (or triggers when an event happens) so that cardiologists can capture episodes when they occur—not just during a scheduled exam.
