Holter-detected arrhythmias and associated risk factors in hospitalized elderly patients with diagnosed heart failure

AF and high-grade PVCs are common in hospitalized elderly patients with diagnosed heart failure and are associated with distinct clinical and laboratory parameters. Elevated sPAP was a shared predictor of both arrhythmias. These findings support the use of integrated echocardiographic and Holter monitoring for risk stratification and management in this population.
