Abstract
A system for simultaneously monitoring one or a plurality of patients samples each electrocardiac waveform of each patient to generate a model waveform for each patient. The image is resolved into contour intervals, e.g. PR, QR, ST and T intervals, and the system establishes a set of interval limits for each patient to which samples of subsequently monitored waveforms are compared. Errors associated with each patient are separately stored and reported by the system in an order which may correspond to a priority ranking of the seriousness of the conditions with which the errors are associated.
