US 2023/0404404 A1 · ENHANCED ECG WORKFLOWS

Abstract

A method and system for obtaining and analyzing ECG waveforms from a patient is disclosed. Initially, a recommendation for obtaining an ECG waveform from a patient is issued, typically from a cardiologist. An ECG recording device is used to obtain ECG data from the patient. The recording device generates patient identification information, time and date information and an initial analysis that are included in a log delivered along with the ECG data to an analysis server. The analysis server generates a recommended action for the patient, which is delivered to the recording device while the patient is still present at the recording device. The recording device can then carry out the recommended action and provide the results for analysis by the cardiologist. The analysis server can utilize artificial intelligence/machine learning to generate the recommended action for the patient without having to involve the cardiologist, thereby reducing the number of visits for the treatment of the patient.

Dependent claims

A system for assisting in obtaining ECG waveforms from a patient comprising:

an ECG recording device comprising:
one or more electrodes configured to detect bioelectric impedance on a patient;
a measuring device configured to receive raw data from the electrodes and generate an ECG waveform;
and
a transceiver configured to transmit and receive data;
an analysis server configured to analyze processed ECG data;
wherein the ECG recording device is programmed to:
sense an initial ECG waveform from the patient using the ECG recording device in a first lead configuration;
generate an initial analysis at the ECG recording device based on the ECG waveform obtained from the patient by the recording device;
communicate the recorded ECG waveform and the initial analysis from the recording device to the analysis server;
receive a recommended action from the analysis server;
and
operate to carry out the recommended action on the patient;
wherein the analysis server is programmed to:
analyze the recorded ECG waveform and the initial analysis;
determine the recommended action;
and
communicate the recommended action to the recording device,
wherein the recommended action comprises sensing a second ECG waveform using a different lead configuration than the first lead configuration.
