1. A system for monitoring a patient'"'"'s heart, comprising:

  • a registering unit comprising a first controller in electrical communication with the patient'"'"'s heart, said first controller being configured to register an electrical signal emitted by the patient'"'"'s heart; and

    a second controller in operable communication with said first controller, said second controller being configured to receive data from said first controller corresponding to the registered electrical signal;

    to generate a registered template comprising a digital graphical representation of an intracardiac electrogram for the registered electrical signal; and

    to compare the registered template to a baseline template comprising a digital graphical representation of an intracardiac electrogram for a baseline electrical signal emitted by the patient'"'"'s heart to determine whether the patient'"'"'s heart is functioning properly, wherein the second controller is adapted to compare the baseline template and the registered template through a wavelet transformation in which the templates are transformed to create one or more wavelets in the form of corresponding fragments of the templates, the second controller being adapted to compare one or more registered wavelets to one or more corresponding baseline wavelets to determine whether the patient'"'"'s heart is functioning properly.
