Innovative instrumental analysis of heartbeat signals and its clinical application.

A new apparatus has been built that annexes a normal electrocardiograph, ECG, with the aim to enhance its capacity. It adds the normal ECG power to superpose multiple records of ECG altogether and averages out them and, further, makes sophisticated analysis, such as normalizing the peak heights, evaluating the half-line widths of the peaks, or that of the standard deviations of measurements like the inter peak distances. The results of the said calculations have not been obtainable using the former instruments, and are expected to be useful for clinicians.
