1. An electrocardiographic review system comprising electronic data storage means having stored therein electrocardiographic trend data for at least one patient taken over an extended time period on the order of hours and sets of time-sequential electrocardiographic waveform data for said patient taken over a plurality of short time intervals each on the order of seconds within said extended time period, said electrocardiographic waveform data being of a type different from said trend data;

  • display means for forming a display;

    first means for receiving said electrocardiographic trend data from said electronic data storage means and for controlling said display forming means to establish a graphic display of all of said electrocardiographic trend data in the form of a magnitude-time plot so that said elEctrocardiographic trend data over said extended time period can be visually ascertained;

    second means for selecting a point along the time axis of said plot and for controlling said display forming means to visually identify said selected point corresponding to a selected short time range on the order of minutes within said extended time period; and

    third means for receiving said electrocardiographic waveform data from said electronic data storage means and responsive to the operation of said second means for controlling said display forming means to establish a graphic display of one of said sets of electrocardiographic waveform data taken over one of said short time intervals which is referenced by said selected point along the time axis of said electrocardiographic trend data plot.
