May be electrolytes.: Not sure based in information provided, such as why did you have an event monitor? That said, the reason to use sports drinks is usually to replace electrolytes that are depleted during rigorous exercise and sweating. He may have seen low electrolytes or premature beats which can.Be associated but are usually benign.
