Abstract

Introduction/Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare a novel small event recorder device, the Carnation Ambulatory Monitor (CAM), with a standard Holter. Animals: Nineteen adult dogs. Material and methods: Comparative and explorative study. The two devices were simultaneously applied for approximately 24 h. Results: Analysis time (P=0.013) and percentage of artefacts (P<0.001) were greater for the CAM (110 min [40–264]; and 9% [0–34], respectively) compared to a standard Holter (30 min [18–270]; and 0.3% [0–9], respectively).
