1. A system comprising:
- a processor; and
a computer-readable medium comprising code capable of being executed by the processor to;
determine a technician among a plurality of technicians to receive an (electrocardiogram) ECG based on a requested review completion time for a clinical trial with which the ECG is associated and based on an amount of distributed ECGs present in each technician queue of a plurality of technician queues, the ECG being associated with protocol data;
cause the ECG to be distributed to the technician determined to receive the ECG for measuring;
receive a measurement of the ECG;
receive a modification to the protocol data;
based on the modification to the protocol data, determine the ECG is to be reprocessed; and
cause the ECG to be reprocessed.

Abstract
Managing electrocardiogram (ECG) processing is described. ECGs are distributed to a technician system and/or a cardiologist system based on protocol data and one or more factors to promote processing efficiency for the ECGs. A modification to the protocol data can be received. Processed ECGs can be analyzed in view of the modification to identify ECGs for reprocessing. The identified ECGs can be reprocessed in accordance with the modification to the protocol data and, if applicable, the factors.

8. A method comprising:
-
receiving protocol data for a clinical trial, the protocol data comprising a requested review completion time and protocol rules; receiving a plurality of electrocardiograms (ECGs) associated with the clinical trial; receiving a representation of an amount of distributed ECGs present in each cardiologist queue among a plurality of cardiologist queues; processing, by a device, the plurality of ECGs to receive reports of the plurality of ECGs, the device comprising a processor executing code stored on a computer-readable medium to cause the device to process the plurality of ECGs, the processing comprising; based on the requested review completion time for the clinical trial and based on the representation of the amount of distributed ECGs present in each cardiologist queue, determining a cardiologist among a plurality of cardiologists to receive an ECG of the plurality of ECGs; and receiving a report of the ECG of the plurality of ECGs; receiving a modification to the protocol data; identifying at least one ECG from the plurality of ECGs to be reprocessed, wherein the identifying is based on the modification to the protocol data; and reprocessing the at least one ECG identified from the plurality of ECGs, wherein reprocessing is in accordance with the modification to the protocol data. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

9. The method of 8, wherein the modification to the protocol data comprises at least one of:
-
changing the protocol data for a first clinical trial to the protocol data for a second clinical trial;
orchanging at least one of;
the requested completion time;
or a rule of the protocol rules.

15. A computer program product comprising code stored on a computer-readable medium, the code comprising:
-
code for receiving a plurality of electrocardiograms (ECGs), each ECG being associated with protocol data, the protocol data comprising a requested review completion time and protocol rules; code for receiving a representation of an amount of distributed ECGs present in each technician queue among a plurality of technician queues; code for receiving a representation of an amount of distributed ECGs present in each cardiologist queue among a plurality of cardiologist queues; code for processing the plurality of ECGs to receive measurements of the plurality of ECGs and to receive results of cardiologists reviewing the measurements, the code for processing comprising; code for determining a technician among a plurality of technicians to receive an ECG of the plurality of ECGs based on the requested review completion time for the ECG and based on the representation of the amount of distributed ECGs present in each technician queue; and code for determining a cardiologist among a plurality of cardiologists to receive for review an ECG of the plurality of ECGs and to receive a measurement associated with the ECG of the plurality of ECGs, based on the requested review completion time and based on the representation of the amount of distributed ECGs present in each cardiologist queue, to allow receipt of a report for the ECG from the cardiologist before the requested review completion time; code for receiving a modification to the protocol data; code for identifying, based on the modification to the protocol data, at least one ECG from the plurality of ECGs to be reprocessed; and code for reprocessing, in accordance with the modification to the protocol data, the at least one ECG identified from the plurality of ECGs. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
