What are the Challenges of Using Continuous Cardiac Monitors?
Despite their benefits, continuous cardiac monitors come with challenges:
False Alarms: These can cause unnecessary anxiety and lead to unnecessary interventions. Skin Irritation: Prolonged use of electrodes can cause skin issues in neonates. Data Overload: The vast amount of data can be overwhelming and requires skilled interpretation. Cost: These monitors can be expensive, making them less accessible in low-resource settings.
