1. An apparatus comprising:
- a mobile device having a first computer system configured to;
detect an episode in electrical signals representative of a beating heart;
determine that the detected episode is a notable finding; and
send data corresponding to the notable finding to a second computer system external to the mobile device the second computer system accesses a storage medium having encoded thereon information representative of a database storing patterns produced from historical data on a user, the historical data including at least one of ECG strips, templates, and reference data; and
receives a pattern determined by the second computer system to reconfigure the mobile device to change analysis of data received by the mobile device, with the selected pattern being retrieved from the database and produced at least in part from the historical data on the user.

Abstract
An arrangement includes a mobile device executing a process to detect an episode in electrical signals representative of a beating heart. The mobile device determines that the detected episode is a notable finding and sends data corresponding to the notable finding to a second system. The second system analyzes the data corresponding to the notable finding using one or more additional computing resources.
