1. An ECG processing management system for processing electrocardiograms (ECGs), comprising:
- means for receiving protocol data for a first clinical trial;
means for receiving and storing ECG data for a plurality of ECGs associated with the first clinical trial;
means for processing said ECGs to receive interval measurements for said ECGs;
means for processing said ECGs after measurement to receive a cardiological evaluation for each of said ECGs;
means for receiving protocol data for a second clinical trial for use with said ECGs associated with the first clinical trial, and for receiving modified protocol data for said first clinical trial; and
means for identifying ECGs from said plurality of ECGs associated with the first clinical trial that require re-measurement and reevaluation based on said protocol data for the second clinical trial and modified protocol data for said first clinical trial,wherein ECGs identified by the identifying means to require re-measurement and reevaluation are automatically reprocessed by said means for processing said ECGs to receive interval measurements and said means for processing said ECGs after measurement to receive a cardiological evaluation as needed to comply with the protocol data for the second clinical trial or modified protocol data for the first clinical trial.

Abstract
In a method and system for processing an electrocardiogram (ECG), digital ECG data are received. The digital ECG data evinces a plurality of a patient'"'"'s heartbeats detected during an ECG. Digital annotation data are generated representing marking to be shown on an ECG tracing of the plurality of heartbeats. An annotated ECG tracing image is produced using the digital ECG data and the digital annotation data.

7. A computer-implemented method of processing electrocardiograms (ECGs), comprising the steps of:
-
receiving into an ECG processing management system protocol data for a first clinical trial; receiving and storing into the ECG processing management system ECG data for a plurality of ECGs associated with the first clinical trial; processing the ECGs with the ECG processing management system to receive interval measurements for the ECGs; after receiving interval measurements of the ECGs, processing the ECGs with the ECG processing management system to receive a cardiological evaluation for each of the ECGs; receiving into the ECG processing management system protocol data for a second clinical trial for use with the ECGs associated with the first clinical trial; receiving into the ECG processing management system modified protocol data for the first clinical trial; and identifying with the ECG processing management system ECGs from the plurality of ECGs associated with the first clinical trial that require re-measurement and reevaluation based on the protocol data for the second clinical trial and modified protocol data for the first clinical trial, wherein ECGs identified by the identifying step to require re-measurement and reevaluation are automatically reprocessed with the ECG processing management system to receive interval measurements and to receive a cardiological evaluation as needed to comply with the protocol data for the second clinical trial or modified protocol data for the first clinical trial. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
