The next time your doctor tells you that you need to have your heart monitored, you need to ask for a wireless heart monitor. In many instances, you don't have to be hooked up to a bunch of wires and kept overnight at the hospital. There are four good reasons why you want to ask for this monitor - and be sure that your doctor gives in to your request. You Want to Save Money Thanks to modern technology, heart monitors are more affordable. This has allowed more doctors to implement them. Private practices and hospitals alike are using these monitors to provide you with convenience and a more effective diagnosis. When you don't have to stay in a hospital for the monitoring, you save money. There are no hospital beds, meals, or overnight stays to pay for. Even if you have insurance, you will find this to be a savings. You Want to Be at Home Why should you have to lie in a hospital bed when you can be at home? A wireless heart monitor can be used at home so you can say goodbye to the hospital. If there is no reason for you to be there other than for monitoring, your doctor can provide you with a state of the art monitor that can be taken home. You may have to plug it into the wall, but you won't be hooked up to thousands of cords. Many of the monitors have strong enough batteries that it doesn't even have to be plugged in. You Want Constant Monitoring When you are having cardiac issues, you want 24/7 monitoring. A wireless heart monitor can transmit activity to your doctor in real-time. In the event that you have an irregular heartbeat or rhythm, the monitor will alert your doctor. This will give the doctor the opportunity to review the results and determine whether you need to go into the hospital. If you were to use a traditional home monitor, it may take 12 or 24 hours for the doctor to find out about the cardiac activity. You Want to Walk Around One of the most uncomfortable things in the world is to feel confined to a bed. Even if it is your own bed, you don't want to lie there simply because your heart is being monitored. Traditional monitors would require you to lie still for hours on end - and this just isn't realistic. You shouldn't have to do that and it isn't a realistic reading because it isn't a normal day. With the use of a wireless heart monitor, you can walk around. A battery-operated monitor prevents you from being plugged in. A wireless chip also allows data to be transmitted to the doctor, which means you don't have to plug the monitor into the computer to send data to him or her. A doctor can usually provide you with a wireless monitor if you ask, so it's worth asking the question.
