Embodiments describe a method of determining etiology of undiagnosed events comprising monitoring electrocardiogram signals and blood pressure of a patient via a medical device, capturing one or more of an ECG segment and a BP reading in response to a triggering event, classifying one or more of the ECG segment and BP reading as normal or abnormal, and determining etiology of undiagnosed symptomatic events based on the classification. Embodiments further describe a medical device comprising sensors for monitoring ECG signals and BP of a patient, circuitry for capturing one or more of ECG segments and BP readings of a patient in response to a triggering event, and a processor for communicating one of more of captured ECG segments and captured BP readings to a remote monitoring center directly or indirectly where the captured ECG segments and captured BP readings are classified as normal or abnormal.

System and methods of determining etiology of undiagnosed symptomatic events

A system and method of monitoring electrocardiogram (ECG) signals and detecting ischemic conditions. In particular, high-frequency components and low-frequency components are extracted from the monitored ECG signal. The high-frequency components are analyzed to detect reduced amplitude zones (RAZs), while the low-frequency components are utilized to detect premature ventricular contraction (PVC) beats. Potentially ischemic conditions are identified based on both RAZs and PVC beats detected.
