Abstract :
In patient care, as well as in research, data from ECGs is essential, even more so in combination with data from other diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. This paper describes the communication between the acquired MUSE 5000 ECG management system and our department information system. The exchange of information between the systems was structured according to the European standard communication protocol for computerised electrocardiography and implemented on the hospital local area network through TCP/IP and (PC-). NFS.
