Abstract
A computer-based method for presenting correlated ECG and heart-associated sound information regarding a selected subject's heart including the steps of (a) collecting subject-specific, time-related ECG and heart-associated sound information, and thereafter (b), presenting, in a common-display manner, at least portions of this ECG and sound information along with (a) a stated heart-condition interpretation derived from the information, coupled with (b) the presentation of a related, authoritative clinical-interpretation guideline.
Claims16
A computer-based method for presenting correlated ECG and heart-associated sound information regarding a selected subject's heart comprising
- collecting time-base-related, associated, selected-subject ECG and sound information,
- processing such collected information and generating therefrom a reportable interpretation, and
- following said processing, producing an integrated report which commonly shows, in a focused, time-based snippet, time-related regions from each of the collected ECG information and the collected sound information, which regions played a role in said generating of the mentioned reportable interpretation.
A computer-based method for presenting correlated ECG and heart-associated sound information regarding a selected subject's heart comprising
- collecting time-base-related, associated, selected-subject ECG and sound information,
- processing such collected information and generating therefrom a reportable interpretation,
- comparing the generated interpretation with a recognized, authoritative body of ECG and heart-sound clinical interpretation guidelines to identify guideline text which is relevant to the generated interpretation, and
- producing an integrated report which commonly shows at least (a) the generated interpretation, and (b) the identified guideline text.
A computer-based method for presenting correlated ECG and heart-associated sound information regarding a selected subject's heart comprising
- collecting subject-specific, time-related ECG and heart-associated sound information,
- effectively comparing that collected information with a recognized, authoritative body of ECG and heart-sound clinical interpretation guidelines, and
- producing a report which describes the results of said comparing.
A computer-based method for presenting correlated ECG and heart-associated sound information regarding a selected subject's heart comprising
- collecting subject-specific, time-related ECG and heart-associated sound information, and
- thereafter presenting, in a common-display manner, at least portions of this ECG and sound information along with (a) a stated heart-condition interpretation derived from the information, coupled with (b) the presentation of a related, authoritative clinical-interpretation guideline.
