Article Synopsis
- Ambulatory electrocardiography is the go-to method for diagnosing cardiac arrhythmias, but choosing the right type and duration of monitoring is crucial for effectiveness and cost-effectiveness.
- Many healthcare institutions lack clear guidelines for test selection, which often results in repeat testing, increased costs, and poorer patient outcomes.
- To improve this, a multidisciplinary team created a user-friendly, color-coded flowchart algorithm to help clinicians select the best test option, aiming to enhance diagnostic efficiency and patient care through its implementation in the electronic medical records system.
