Abstract: A data collection system collects and stores physiological data from an ambulatory patient at a high resolution and/or a high data rate (“more detailed data”) and sends a low-resolution and/or downsampled version of the data (“less detailed data”) to a remote server via a wireless network. The server automatically analyzes the less detailed data to detect an anomaly, such as an arrhythmia. A two-tiered analysis scheme is used, where the first tier is more sensitive and less specific than the second tier. If the more sensitive analysis detects or suspects the anomaly, the server signals the data collector to send more detailed data that corresponds to a time period associated with the anomaly. The more specific second tier analyses the more detailed data to verify the anomaly. The server may also store the received data and make it available to a user, such as via a graphical or tabular display.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for determining relative signal quality between electrocardiogram (ECG) leads may include: obtaining ECG data that includes a respective signal captured from a patient by each lead of a plurality of ECG leads; identifying a heartbeat in the ECG data; for each lead: extracting a portion of the respective signal corresponding to the identified heartbeat; identifying a heartbeat template most likely to correspond to the identified heartbeat; determining respective noise data for the extracted portion of the respective signal based on the identified heartbeat template; and determining a signal-to-noise ratio for the lead based on the respective noise data; and determining a lead from amongst the plurality of ECG leads having a highest signal-to-noise ratio.

Abstract: A method for processing ECG data may include: receiving ECG data representing heartbeats; determining whether each of the heartbeats is normal or abnormal; associating each abnormal heartbeat with an existing or new template; receiving, from a user, input related to each new template that includes either: a) a confirmation that the new template represents an abnormal heartbeat, or b) a reclassification of the new template as representing a normal heartbeat or a different abnormal heartbeat; and in response to the user input, updating a label of each of the heartbeats associated with each confirmed new template and each of the heartbeats associated with each reclassified new template. The ECG data may be received from a portable monitor configured to be carried on a patient's body.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for processing ECG data may include: receiving, over an electronic network, ECG data, wherein the ECG data represents a plurality of heartbeats; analyzing the ECG data, by at least one processor, to determine whether each of the plurality of heartbeats is a normal heartbeat or an abnormal heartbeat; associating, by the at least one processor, each of the abnormal heartbeats with either only one of a plurality of existing templates or a new template; receiving, from a user, input related to each new template, wherein the input includes either: a) a confirmation that the new template represents an abnormal heartbeat, or b) a reclassification of the new template as representing a normal heartbeat or a different abnormal heartbeat; and in response to the user input, updating, by the at least one processor, a label of each of the heartbeats associated with each confirmed new template and each of the heartbeats associated with each reclassified new template.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for displaying patient ECG data. The method includes receiving ECG data including an ECG waveform; receiving analyzed ECG data including arrhythmic events; generating an indicia of the detected arrhythmic event; and displaying the indicia of the detected arrhythmic event in relation to the ECG waveform at a position associated with a time of the detected arrhythmic event. A system for displaying patient ECG data is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of measuring bioelectric signals of a patient having an axis extending from the patient's head to the patient's feet includes attaching a patch to the patient's skin. The patch may include a first electrode and a second electrode spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the patch. The patch may be attached such that the longitudinal axis of the patch is generally aligned with the axis of the patient. The method may also include attaching a third electrode to the patient's skin, and measuring bioelectric signals of the patient using the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode.

Abstract: A system collects and stores data from a source at a high resolution and/or a high data rate (“more detailed data”) and sends a low-resolution and/or downsampled version of the data (“less detailed data”) to a remote server via a wireless network. The server automatically analyzes the less detailed data to detect an anomaly, such as an arrhythmia, earthquake or failure of a structural member. A two-tiered analysis scheme is used, where the first tier is less specific than the second tier. If the first tier analysis detects or suspects the anomaly, the server signals the data collector to send more detailed data that corresponds to a time period associated with the anomaly. The more specific second tier analyses the more detailed data to verify the anomaly.
