[Technical characteristics of a new computerized system for quantitative evaluation of cardiac arrhythmias (author's transl)]. 1979

J F Leclercq, and P Attuel, and P Coumel

The ATREC system is designed to carry out at sixty times real time the quantitative evaluation of arrhythmias in 24 hour magnetic tape recordings. A preprocessing unit eliminates the low frequency waves (P and T) and artefacts, and furnishes the computer (Mitra 15/35, 16 K words of core) with information on R-R interval, QRS duration, regular or irregular rhythm, bradycardia or pauses, transient to sustained tachycardia, and ventricular fibrillation. Extrasystoles are analyzed in terms of enlargement, number, coupling interval, bi or trigeminy, doublets or salvos. Trends of mean and extreme cardiac rate, and R-R interval histograms, are also available. The system is also available for ECG real time monitoring of patients in coronary care units. The computer can analyze 8 ECG tracings simultaneously. The ATREC system provides an important aid in the quantification of arrhythmias and improves the evaluation of antiarrhythmic drugs efficacy.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead

D000889 Anti-Arrhythmia Agents Agents used for the treatment or prevention of cardiac arrhythmias. They may affect the polarization-repolarization phase of the action potential, its excitability or refractoriness, or impulse conduction or membrane responsiveness within cardiac fibers. Anti-arrhythmia agents are often classed into four main groups according to their mechanism of action: sodium channel blockade, beta-adrenergic blockade, repolarization prolongation, or calcium channel blockade.
