    摘要: This invention concerns a data processing apparatus (12) for processing ST-segment slope information (ST1, ST2, STX) from an ECG signal from a myocardium of a heart of a human (1) or animal to generate data for one of—an assessment of a risk, a probability or a presence and—a diagnosis of a risk, a probability or a presence of a type of arrhythmia of the heart or a part of it, wherein the data processing apparatus (12) is configured to calculate at least two ST-segment slope values (STS1, STS2, STSX) wherein each of the at least two ST-segment slope values (STS1, STS2, STSX) belongs to ST-segments (ST) from different heart beats (HB1, HB2, HBX) of the same heart, and to derive a ST-segment slope deviation value (1DV, N1DV, S1DV, SN1DV) from at least two ST-segment slope values (STS1, STS2, STSX). The invention further concerns an assessment apparatus (14), and a method for providing data for an assessment and/or a diagnosis of a condition or a disease of at least a part of the myocardium.
