Feature-based editing for electrocardiography
First Claim
1. A method for generating an electrocardiogram (ECG) report, the method comprising:
- receiving ECG data at a physician workstation;
enabling a user to specify values for features of the ECG data;
generating an interpretation of the ECG data based on the values of the features specified by the user; and
storing the interpretation after possible editing in a patient database.

Abstract
A method and system for generating electrocardiogram reports allows for the editing of features in the electrocardiogram interpretation process. This improves the accuracy of machine interpretation of the ECG data thereby facilitating the analysis and generation of the final report by the physician. The present method and system are most useful in host-based ECG interpretation systems where the physician accesses the ECG data at a workstation including a machine interpretation that is generated typically at the ECG cart. The physician is then provided with the ability to modify the features in the ECG data and generate a new host-based interpretation based on the original ECG data and the features specified by the physician.

- 13. A computer software product for generating an electrocardiogram (ECG) report, the product comprising a computer-readable medium in which program instructions are stored, which instructions, when read by a computer, cause the computer to receive ECG data at a physician workstation, enable a user to specify values for features of the ECG data, generate an interpretation of the ECG data based on the values of the features specified by the user, and store the interpretation after possible editing in a patient database.
