[The performance of ECG telemetry in the analysis of rhythm disorders].

630 outpatients and inpatients under rest as well as under conditions of physical loads and psychic stress were examined with the help of a radiobiotelemetry device of own construction, which corresponds to a combination of traditional radiotelemetry and tape storage. In 81.4% of the patients with hitherto unclarified disturbances of the cardiac rhythm telemetry obtained their qualitative clarification. In 50% of all cases with classical angina pectoris symptomatology the ischaemic heart disease was verified by determination of the usual criterias of ECG at the telemetry stripe. Of these 50% only 7 patients had no arrhythmia. In 57.5% of all examined patients with pacemakers of permanent frequency we could prove a considerable parasystoly in load by telemetry. 9 patients with R-demand-pacemakers became evident by triggering defects in load. During the psychoanalytic examination we registered extrasystoles in 25%, apart from this once developed a pancardiac asystolism. The radiobiotelemetry is a valuable completion of the well-known methods of load.
