| Core Tip |
Inpatient telemetry monitoring can be a costly resource in hospitals. Inappropriate use of this clinical tool only increases burgeoning healthcare costs both to the patient and the hospital. Atrial fibrillation is a risk factor for stroke which is why telemetry is indicated for 24-48 h after a cerebrovascular accident. However, telemetry for all patients for this short period of time can be non-diagnostic. Our study shows telemetry can be better utilized in patients with higher risk factors for atrial fibrillation as seen with higher CHA2DS2-VASc scores, and this stratification of telemetry monitoring may allow appropriate allocation and use for patients in whom benefit will be derived. |
