Abstract
A method and system of diagnosing cardiac syndromes. The method includes acquiring data from a first and second diagnostic test, and then processing the data from the first and second diagnostic test to produce a first and a second indicator. Next the indicators are combined and a risk of a cardiac syndrome based on the combination of the indicators is calculated. The system includes a first and a second physiological activity acquisition module and a fusion engine to receive the data acquired by the modules and to generate a risk of ACS based on a combination of the data.
Claims39
A method of diagnosing cardiac syndromes, the method comprising the acts of:
- acquiring data from a first diagnostic test;
- processing the data from the first diagnostic test to produce an indicator;
- acquiring data from a second diagnostic test;
- processing the data from the second diagnostic test to produce a second indicator;
- combining the indicators;
- and
- calculating a risk of a cardiac syndrome based on the combination of indicators.
A cardiac syndrome diagnostic system comprising:
- a first cardiac activity acquisition device operable to generate a first cardiac activity data;
- a second cardiac activity acquisition device operable to generate a second cardiac activity data;
- one or more processors to generate a first and second indicator based on the first and second cardiac activity data, respectively;
- and
- a fusion engine operable to receive the first and second indicators, generate a first and second set of degrees of membership based on the first and second indicators, and generate a risk of a cardiac syndrome based on a combination of the first and second sets of degrees of membership and a set of predetermined rules.
A diagnostic system comprising:
- a first physiological activity acquisition module;
- a second physiological activity acquisition module;
- and
- a fusion engine operable to receive data from the first and second modules and to generate a risk of ACS based on a combination of the data received from the first and second modules.
A method for diagnosing acute cardiac syndromes (ACS), the method comprising the acts of:
- acquiring ECG data;
- processing the ECG data to produce an ECG indicator;
- acquiring biomarker data;
- processing the biomarker data to produce a biomarker indicator;
- combining the indicators;
- and
- calculating a risk of ACS using fuzzy logic rules.
A method of diagnosing cardiac syndromes, the method comprising the acts of:
- acquiring data from a plurality of diagnostic tests;
- processing the data from the plurality of diagnostic tests to produce a plurality of indicators;
- combining the plurality of indicators;
- and
- calculating a risk of a cardiac syndrome based on the combination of the plurality of indicators.
