Abstract
A method and apparatus for classifying heartbeats obtains ECG data from a plurality of ECG waveforms, which are in turn obtained from signals received from a plurality of ECG electrodes. QRS detection logic detects heartbeats in the ECG data. Classification logic classifies the detected heartbeats into categories based on shape and/or timing. This classification is done by comparing each heartbeat against a group of templates corresponding to one or more heartbeat classifications. The templates are updated to track changes in the morphology of the heartbeats. The heartbeat classification is displayed to the cardiologist or medical professional for diagnosis of the condition of the patient's heart.
