Abstract
Electrical impulses are received from a beating heart. The electrical impulses are converted to an ECG waveform. The ECG waveform is converted to a frequency domain waveform, which, in turn, is separated into two or more different frequency domain waveforms, which, in turn, are converted into a plurality of time domain cardiac electrophysiological subwaveforms and discontinuity points between these subwaveforms. The plurality of subwaveforms and discontinuity points are compared to a database of subwaveforms and discontinuity points for normal and abnormal patients or to a set of rules developed from the database. An ST segment and one or more ST subwaveforms within the ST segment are identified from the plurality of subwaveforms and discontinuity points based on the comparison. The ECG waveform with the one or more ST subwaveforms within the ST segment is displayed.
