    摘要: An apparatus for measuring an electrocardiogram and storing an electrocardiogram signal merged with a user input includes: a signal detector outputting an electrocardiogram analog signal by detecting an electrical signal from the heart of an object; a signal converter receiving the electrocardiogram analog signal and converting the electrocardiogram analog signal into an electrocardiogram digital signal; an input unit receiving at least one type of user input from among a voice input, a button input, a touch input, and a motion input; a processor receiving the user input, merging the electrocardiogram digital signal with the user input, and storing the electrocardiogram digital signal in an internal memory; and a communicator communicating with an external terminal to transmit the electrocardiogram digital signal to the external terminal.

    摘要: An electrocardiography monitor (12, 430) configured for self-optimizing ECG data compression is provided. ECG waveform characteristics are rarely identical in patients with cardiac disease making this innovation crucial for the long-term data storage and analysis of complex cardiac rhythm disorders. The monitor (12, 430) includes a memory (62) and a microcontroller (61) operable to execute under a micro-programmable control and configured to: obtain a series of electrode voltage values (311); select (312) one or more of a plurality of compression algorithms for compressing the electrode voltage series; apply (313) one or more of the selected compression algorithms to the electrode voltage series; evaluate (314) a degree of compression of the electrode voltage series achieved using the application of the selected algorithms; apply (313) one or more of the compression algorithms to the compressed electrode voltage series upon the degree of compression not meeting a predefined threshold; and store (367,379,395) the compressed electrode voltage series within the memory (62).
