Filed:

Apr 5, 1994

Appl. No.:

8/223273

Inventors:

Stuart L. Gallant - Owings Mills MD
Paul R. Caron - Laurel MD
Walter E. Palmer - Catonsville MD
David J. Lubocki - Bellevue WA

Assignee:

Quinton Instrument Company - Seattle WA

International Classification:

A61B 50436

US Classification:

128711

Abstract:

A Holter-type recorder unit for use with an ambulatory ECG recording system is described. The invention features real-time beat differentiation, including ST analysis and paced beat analysis of two or three channel sampled electrocardiogram data. The invention also features real-time coding of beat morphology and summary information on cassette tape. Further, summary information for an entire analysis can be compiled and reverse recorded onto the cassette tape at the end of the analysis to allow downloading thereof into an ECG scanner while the cassette is being rewound.

International Classification:

G06F 1500

US Classification:

36441306

Abstract:

An ECG analysis system for use in conjunction with an ambulatory ECG recorder. The invention includes a playback deck which is capable of receiving and downloading information from a cassette tape to a dedicated digital analysis unit. The playback deck is capable of receiving information from the cassette tape during rewind of the tape therein as well as during playback of the tape. The dedicated digital analysis unit includes a superimposition template and a minute-by-minute ECG template which allow interaction between the dedicated digital analysis unit and the operator for simplification of analysis, manipulation, editing, and report generation. The system is capable of processing information from a cassette tape while it is being rewound in the playback deck and producing preliminary summary report information related to ECG data on the tape for use by a system operator before the tape completes its rewind operation. The playback deck also includes separate analog and digital circuit boards for isolating digital analysis operations from analog data manipulation operations and a speed control system for monitoring and correcting playback speeds of the tape in the playback deck.
