Abstract

Stress electrocardiography is very important in myocardial ischaemia diagnosis and gives insight into therapeutic and preventive procedures. In this work the application of trend analysis is evaluated based on a digital processing of temporal series. Among other indicators, the ST vs. HR relation was studied in a database collected for this particular study. Preliminary results show the feasibility of using this information for a more precise interpretation of stress electrocardiograms
