  • Patent number: 10987046
    Abstract: A method for assessing the electrical function of a heart that includes: (1) for each of a plurality of leads of an ECG, determining a value derived from the output of that lead and which corresponds to an action potential duration; (2) for each of the plurality of leads of the ECG, determining a value derived from the output of that lead and which corresponds to a diastolic interval; (3) for each of the plurality of leads of the ECG, determining a relationship between the determined values for action potential duration and for diastolic interval; and (4) assessing the differences between the determined relationships for each of the plurality of leads. The invention further relates to apparatus and a computer program that may be used in the method.
    Type: Grant
