Abstract

A cardiography system and method using automated recognition of hemodynamic parameters and waveform attributes is provided. The cardiography system and method includes at least one sensor, a knowledge base and a processing device. The at least one sensor provides a waveform signal and a hemodynamic parameter input. The knowledge base includes data corresponding to various disease states. The processing device receives the waveform signal and hemodynamic parameter input from the sensor, identifies waveform attributes on the waveform signal, measures the waveform attributes, accesses the knowledge base, cross-references the waveform attributes and the hemodynamic parameters with data in the knowledge base, and outputs a suggested likelihood of a particular disease state. The knowledge base optionally includes goal-directed therapies associated with particular disease states for providing suggested goal-directed therapies based on the cross-referencing of the waveform attributes and the hemodynamic parameters with the knowledge base.
