Median Beats and Median Lead Zoom panels can be shown or hidden by toggling the small arrow buttons
in the
upper-right corners.
The global measurement and interpretation panels can be shown or hidden by toggling the small arrow button
in
the upper-left corner.
Measurement parameters can be changed with a double-click in the Median Lead Zoom area and by dragging the
cursors to the desired positions. Global measurements are updated upon selection of the OK button. Cancel will
undo any changes and revert back to the original locations and global values.
An undo icon
in the bottom-right corner of the measurements area can be selected to revert back to the original
measurements when selected before saving the ECG.
NOTE: If no patient age is entered prior to acquiring an ECG, the interpretation algorithm assumes a
40-year old male. The statement “INTERPRETATION BASED ON A DEFAULT AGE OF 40 YEARS” will
be added to the Interpretation text.
NOTE: If a patient age of zero (0) is used the interpretation algorithm will assume a 6-month old infant.
The statement “INTERPRETATION BASED ON A DEFAULT AGE OF 6 MONTHS” will be added to the
interpretation text.
NOTE: Where global measurement values are not available (i.e., rate, interval, axis), text such as
‘- -
‘or
‘*’
or similar will display/print for the unavailable value.
