Abstract

An installation for the processing of EKG signals, including a threshold element for the detection of the R-waves or displays in the EKG; and with a signal suppressor element which suppresses the EKG signal in the signal channel for a predetermined time period subsequent to each R-display being detected by the threshold element, wherein this time period is determined by the time span within which a condenser of an RC timing circuit, which has been charged to a predetermined initial voltage value prior to the incidence of the particular R-display, discharges to a lower cutoff voltage for the suppressor element.
