METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR QUANTIFYING THE RISK OF CARDIAC DEATH USING EXERCISE INDUCED HEART RATE RECOVERY METRICS

摘要

Systems and methods for assessing cardiac risks based on heart activity data obtained during a recovery stage of an exercise test of a specific patient. An embodiment of such a system comprises a cardiographic device configured to measure the heart activity data and a computer having a computer-operable medium. The computer-operable medium contains instructions that determines a prognostic period of the heart activity data after a time t
