Abstract
An intelligent printer-plotter for use with a source of time-correlated digital systolic and diastolic blood pressure data and heart rate data receives, stores, analyzes, and edits the data, producing tables of data and graphs having a particular format. The charter smooths the data by a moving average technique and includes modes which permit the operator to edit the data manually or to command the charter to perform the editing automatically. In the automatic editing mode, the data are tested against pre-established criteria. Data not meeting the criteria is flagged so that it can be passed over in subsequent calculation and printing operations; however, the flagged data is not destroyed, but is retained in a memory to permit subsequent re-examination and to permit verification of the editing process.
