Current Guidelines and Clinical Practice.

Guidelines exist for monitoring to diagnose and manage patients with several different conditions. Although there have been recent updates to the guidelines, the constantly evolving and advancing nature of the technologies creates a gap at times between the newest monitors, the indications for their use, and the reimbursement by the payers. The key element to the choice of the modality of monitoring remains matching the correct technology to the type, severity, frequency, and duration of the patient's symptoms.
