Abstract
A system for facilitating a cardiac rhythm disorder diagnosis with the aid of a digital computer is provided. A download station retrieves cutaneous action potentials of a patient by an ECG monitoring and recording device as ECG data. An R-R interval plot of the ECG data includes heart rates associated with R-R intervals plotted along a y-axis of the plot with respect to time, with time represented by an x-axis. The R-R intervals are calculated as a difference between recording times of successive pairs of R-wave peaks and each heart rate is associated with each time difference. Runs of the R-R intervals in the plot are identified and each run represents a cardiac event. Cardiac rhythm measurements are automatically calculated and occurrences of different types of the cardiac events are tracked. One or more of the cardiac events and the cardiac rhythm measurements are reported.
