  • Title: A 60x computer-based Holter tape processing system.
    Author: Hubelbank M, Feldman CL.
    Journal: Med Instrum; 1978; 12(6):324-6. PubMed ID: 85243.
    Abstract:
    Since its introduction in 1968, the basic algorithm for automatic recognition of ventricular ectopic depolarizations, developed at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, has been implemented and modified by a number of investigators. The modified multi-template algorithm is conceptually similar to the original algorithm except that there are eight templates stored for each patient. A new template is stored whenever the match with each of the old templates yields a correlation coefficient less than 0.79. The system reads a Holter tape at 60 x real time for heart rates of 80 beats per minute, with relatively few false positives.
