Abstract:
1. System for analysis of ECG curvature comprising a computer system, which computer system performs a mathematical analysis, which mathematical analysis comprises at least the following steps: a: the system comprises input means connected to at least one ECG source, b: a number of different parameters are isolated and stored in the computer system, c: the computer system select a first number of parameters from at least one main group, d: the computer system combine the selected parameters in at least a first mathematical analysis, whereby the parameters are selected from groups of symmetry (S1-S72), flatness (F1-F91), duration (D1-D47) and/or complexity (C1-C468), e: extract a segment in of the ECG curvature in the mathematical analysis, f: which segment is corresponding to a interval between defined electrocardiographic points, g: which segment is used as input to a first algorithm, h: where a second fiducial point algorithm automatically calculates fiducial points at the segment, i: where concavity intervals are evaluated on subsegments of the ECG segment and form the basis of up- and downwards concavity quantification, j: where the system based on at least the first and the second algorithm detects and quantifies concavity on ECG curvatures;
