JPH0464337A - Automatic electrocardiogram analyzer - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide detailed information pertaining to an electrocardiogram diagnosis even for a physician other than specialists of circulatory organs by arranging a text memory section where information is stored as ground for diagnosis based on electrocardiogram analysis information and an output means which selects and displays the results of diagnosis and the electrocardiogram analysis information used as ground for obtaining the results. CONSTITUTION:Reference 12 induction electrocardiogram signal induced from an organism is first inputted into an electrocardiogram amplifier 1 to be amplified and then, converted into digital from analog at an analysis section 2, where electrocardiogram analysis information is obtained. A liquid crystal display panel 5 shows a text to described the results of diagnosis obtained at the analysis section 2 in details being selected from a text memory section 3. Information involved in information diagnosis by an electrocardiogram is stored previously into the text memory section as derived from books specialized in electrocardiograms and thus, for example, ground used for obtaining the results of diagnosis, a typical waveform and features thereof corresponding to the results of diagnosis, electrophysiological background, possible clinical diagnosis, directions for posttreatment and future and the like can be displayed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an electrocardiogram automatic analysis device, and more particularly to an electrocardiogram automatic analysis device that can display and record text for explaining diagnostic results in detail.

1. Prior Art] In conventional electrocardiogram automatic analyzers, comments regarding diagnosis results are recorded in two to three lines.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned conventional device has the disadvantage that only an insufficient explanation can be provided because the comment content is summarized in two or three lines.

[Means to solve the problem]

The electrocardiogram automatic analysis device of the present invention includes an electrocardiogram amplifier that amplifies electrocardiogram signals for each lead, electrocardiogram analysis information obtained by A/D converting the output of the electrocardiogram amplifier and signal processing, and diagnostic results based on the information. a text storage section storing information that is the basis for making a diagnosis based on the electrocardiogram analysis information, and selecting and displaying the diagnosis result and the electrocardiogram analysis information that is the basis for obtaining the result. and output means.

〔Example〕

Next, four aspects of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment includes an electrocardiogram amplifier 1, an analysis section 2, a text storage section 3, an operation panel 4, a liquid crystal display panel 5, It is composed of a recording section 6.

Here, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

The standard 12-lead electrocardiogram signal derived from the living body is first input to the electrocardiogram amplifier 1 and amplified, and then the A
/D converted. The analysis section 2 also obtains electrocardiogram analysis information. That is, after signal processing such as filtering is applied to the digitized electrocardiogram signal and the segmentation points of each grain wave of the electrocardiogram are recognized, the time width and amplitude are measured. Further, in the analysis section 2, an algorithm is operated to classify each measurement value into a diagnosis name, and a diagnosis result of the 12-lead electrocardiogram is obtained. A recording unit 6, which is one of the output means, records test information such as the patient's ID number, age, and gender, 12-lead electrocardiogram waveform, and diagnostic results.

Further, the liquid crystal display panel 5 is provided with an analysis section 2.

A text for explaining the diagnostic results in detail is selected from the text storage section 3 and displayed. The text storage section contains information related to electrocardiogram information diagnosis, such as electrocardiogram specialized books, such as diagnosis results and the basis for obtaining them, typical waveforms and their characteristics corresponding to diagnosis results, electrophysiology, etc. It is possible to display the background, possible bedside diagnosis, prognosis, future guidelines, etc.

Furthermore, the text content displayed on the liquid crystal display panel 5, which is one of the output means, can be made into a hard copy in the recording section 6 by giving an instruction from the operation panel 4.

FIG. 2 shows an external view of this embodiment. For example, it is a trunk-shaped laptop with a liquid crystal display panel 5, and the operation part is performed by the operation panel 4, and the electrocardiogram and information in the text storage part are output from the recording part 6. The third one is stored inside the trunk-shaped interior. Although not shown in FIG. 2, electrodes and cables for electrocardiogram measurement may also be stored in the trunk-shaped interior space, depending on the design.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention stores information related to diagnosis based on electrocardiogram technical books inside the device, and selects and displays or records text that can explain the outputted diagnostic results in detail. This has the effect of providing detailed information regarding electrocardiogram diagnosis even to doctors other than cardiologists.
