CardioSTAT Home ECG Monitoring
Advice Articles

Some heart rhythm problems come and go, so a short test can easily miss them. CardioSTAT home ECG monitoring records your heart continuously for up to 14 days, at home. LivingCare's cardiology service provides this across our Leeds and Sheffield clinics - no GP referral needed, self-pay or insurance.
CardioSTAT is a lightweight, single-use cardiac monitoring patch that continuously records your heart rhythm for up to 14 days. You wear it at home during normal daily life, so intermittent heart rhythm problems that a brief clinic test can miss have a much longer window to show up. Extended monitoring over several days is more likely to capture intermittent arrhythmias than a single 24-hour recording [1].
Worn on your upper chest, the patch is showerproof, so you can shower and stay active while it records - capturing a longer stretch of your everyday heartbeat than a standard ECG for a fuller clinical picture.
Home ECG monitoring may be helpful if you are experiencing:
If you'd prefer your monitor fitted at the clinic, or need 72 hours or less, our 24-72 hour or 7-day ECG monitoring service may suit you better.
The service suits adults who need investigation of possible heart rhythm abnormalities and would benefit from a longer recording than a standard ECG or short monitor. Your clinician decides whether CardioSTAT monitoring is right for you.
CardioSTAT is also suitable for professional and amateur athletes who need cardiac rhythm assessment - for example, to investigate symptoms during training or competition, to check palpitations or an irregular heartbeat, or as part of a return-to-play review after illness or a cardiac concern.
Athletes can be referred directly by their Club Physician, Team Doctor, Sports Medicine Consultant, or another appropriately qualified healthcare professional. This works alongside LivingCare's sports medicine service, so findings can inform further investigations, treatment and return-to-sport decisions where appropriate.
CardioSTAT is a home-based service, so most people never need a hospital visit. There are six simple steps:
CardioSTAT is a non-invasive, low-risk test - the patch simply adheres to your skin and records your heart rhythm, with no injections or procedures involved. The main consideration is possible mild skin irritation where the patch is worn during prolonged use, which usually settles once the patch is removed.
