<p>An automatic high speed Holter scanning system (10) operates in a nonautomatic mode or in an automatic mode to receive electrocardiogram signals which have been prerecorded in dissimilar formats having different known parameters, and to process same in accordance with an operator input. The automatic arrhythmia processor of the present invention detects ectopic cardiac information, stores the detected information in time sequence, and selectively reads out and displays the stored ectopic information in response to operator command. In addition, the automatic arrhythmia processor compares QRS complexes in received ECG signals to a desired normal QRS complex, and continuously updates the R-R interval and area of the normal QRS complex following each comparison of the normal QRS complex with the subsequent QRS complexes. The system of the present invention basically comprises a front panel for operator control, an input interface unit (132), converter unit (124), freeze memories (32K), with freeze memory control (156), CRT (26) with CRT control (182), a chart recorder (14), and arrhythmia detection and scanning system (200), a central processing unit (126), and various front panel lamps and indicators. </p> |
