    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Medical Informatics
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Cardiac catheterization generates complex pressure data requiring efficient analysis.
    • Manual analysis of pressure waveforms is time-consuming and prone to variability.
    • On-line computer systems can potentially streamline data processing and improve accuracy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a flexible computer program system for the on-line analysis of pressure data obtained during cardiac catheterizations.
    • To validate the accuracy of the automated waveform analysis against manual computations.

    Main Methods:

    • Implementation of a program system on an IBM 1800 computer with remote terminals.
    • Input of measurement specifications (calibration, recording sites) via keyboard.
