Claim 14:
15. A system for filtering and indexing ECG data, the system comprising:
a processor; and
computer-readable memory storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
receiving ECG data of a patient and indications of patient-recorded symptoms from a mobile cardiac telemetry device;
identifying atrial fibrillation events in the received ECG data;

for each identified atrial fibrillation event, filtering the received ECG data to determine whether the identified atrial fibrillation event coincided temporally with at least one patient-recorded symptom, and labeling each such coinciding identified atrial fibrillation events as an asymptomatic AF strip and each non-coinciding identified atrial fibrillation events as an asymptomatic AF strip;
generating an ECG report based on the filtered ECG data, the report comprising a sequence of a plurality of pages;
presenting, on a first page in the sequence of the plurality of pages:
representative arrhythmia summary information including a count of ECG strips containing each of a plurality of types of cardiac arrhythmia, and
atrial fibrillation summary information including an indication of atrial fibrillation burden during the monitoring period;

a count of symptomatic AF strips; and
a count of asymptomatic AF strips;

wherein at least one page of the plurality of pages includes an ECG strip, but the first page in the sequence does not include an ECG strip;
determining a strip address by determining an earliest page of the sequence of the plurality of pages that includes an ECG strip;
determining an AF summary address by determining an earliest page of the sequence of the plurality of pages that includes the atrial fibrillation summary information; and
presenting, on the first page in the sequence, an address index comprising:
a strip pointer comprising the strip address and, adjacent thereto, a signifier of an ECG strip; and
an AF summary pointer comprising the AF summary address and,

adjacent thereto, a signifier of atrial fibrillation.
