1. A method for presenting electrocardiogram (ECG) data to a reader, the method comprising:
- scoring ECG data from different patients based on sorting criteria;
sorting the ECG data from the different patients based on the sorting criteria; and
a reader reviewing the ECG data from the different patients in an order determined by the sorting.

Abstract
A system allows for the prioritization of ECGs. This can be performed by the ECG management system and/or at the instruction of the cardiologist or other reader. In a current implementation, the system will allow for the sorting of the ECGs so that the more complex interpretations are presented first, when the cardiologist or other reader is not suffering from fatigue, saving the simpler readings for later in the session as fatigue might begins to become a factor.

- 20. A computer software product for ECG data presentation, the product comprising a computer-readable medium in which program instructions are stored, which instructions, when read by a computer, cause the computer to score ECG data from different patients based on sorting criteria, sort the ECG data to be over-read by a reader from the different patients based on the sorting criteria, and enable the reader to review the ECG data from the different patients in an order determined by the sorting.
