Claim One:
1. A method of detecting arrhythmic electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, the method comprising: monitoring one or more physiological parameters associated with a patient; determining whether the patient is at rest based on one or more physiological parameters; and measuring a basal/resting heart rate of the patient in response to a determination that the patient is at rest, wherein the plurality of threshold heart rates are defined based on the measured basal/resting heart rate; defining a plurality of threshold heart rates and rate-dependent sensitivity levels for detecting arrhythmic ECG episodes, wherein the plurality of threshold heart rates are defined based on the measured basal/resting heart rate, wherein more clinically relevant heart rates are assigned rate-dependent sensitivity levels with higher sensitivities; monitoring ECG signals associated with a patient using a monitoring device; and processing the monitored ECG signals using the plurality of threshold heart rates and rate-dependent sensitivity levels to detect and capture arrhythmic ECG segments.
