Does anyone know the approximate cost for a 24 Hour Holter Heart Monitor test at a Thai hospital?

It will depend on whether public or private hospital.

 

In both cases, has to be ordered/requested by a cardiologist.

Sorry no idea about price in Thailand but these days it is unlikely to be a 24hr monitor.

Instead they now use these mini monitors that you leave on even to shower & they like to gather 14 days of data

 

Which is really much better as often a 24 hour may not even show a problem. Not to mention the old holters were big bulky affairs

This new type is nice as it monitors the whole time & also has a button on it so if you detect an event yourself you can press it & it marks that time frame for those who later review the whole recording

 

In the USA when I had the long 14 day monitoring version (I have had both types 😉 ) the report is generated by Boston Scientific & is quite interesting to pour over. Of course they send it to your cardiologist first 😉 

 

I'm sure Thailand has something similar.....Good Luck
