    AbstractGuidelines recommend the use of cardiac telemetry when phenytoin is administered intravenously. Clinical areas where telemetry is available may not always be the most suitable place to monitor and treat these sick patients. We sought to clarify the evidence regarding the need for cardiac telemetry during intravenous infusion of phenytoin.© 2012 The Authors; Internal Medicine Journal © 2012 Royal Australasian College of Physicians.
