This paper describes the foundational development of a portable system for continuous ambulatory electrocardiographic recording.
Supports feasibility of ambulatory ECG; extends orthodox electrocardiography to prolonged outpatient recording.
I have proposed that orthodox electrocardiography be implemented, both for research and medical purposes, by the use of long-period, continuous recording of heart potentials with a portable, self-contained instrument-the electrocardiocorder together with semiautomatic methods for the rapid analysis of the resulting voluminous data. An electronic system to make this concept practical has been developed in our laboratory and typical results are described in this article.
