Claim Text:
1. An electrocardiograph device comprising: a display; a plurality of electrocardiograph signal leads configured for electrical connection to a patient; a programmable circuit operatively connected to the display and to the plurality of electrocardiograph signal leads, the programmable circuit configured to receive electrical signals via the electrocardiograph signal leads representative of a heartbeat of a patient, wherein the programmable circuit is further configured to: generate a user interface to be presented on the display, the user interface comprising a lead display including a screen layout including a plurality of waveform regions, the waveform regions being adjacent to one another and each displaying a waveform corresponding to an electrical signal from one of the plurality of electrocardiograph signal leads over a first time interval including at least one heartbeat period; upon receiving selection of a region of the user interface, display an extended waveform region associated with one or more of the electrocardiograph signal leads, the extended waveform region displaying a waveform corresponding to the electrical signal from one of the plurality of electrocardiograph leads over a second time interval that is longer than the first time interval, and which includes a plurality of heartbeat periods; wherein the lead display includes an image of a torso depicting locations of leads placed on the patient; and wherein one or more of the locations depicted on the torso provide a visual indication of whether or not a signal is being received at that location.
