Using a wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) patch adapted for 7‐day monitoring in the horse

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Arrhythmias can cause poor performance and sudden death in horses. Long‐term (>24 h) electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring has been used to identify arrhythmias in humans and is superior to short‐term monitoring for transient arrhythmia detection. Televet is the current equine gold‐standard ECG device. The Cardea SOLO™ (CS) is a single‐
