[Automated electrocardiographic diagnosis of ventricular hypertrophy in the system of the cardiologic telemetric consultation-diagnostic center].
A method and algorithm of automated diagnosis of ventricular hypertrophy is described for electrocardiograms, transmitted by telephone to the remote-control consultative diagnostic centre. The validity of computerized ECG diagnosis was assessed in comparison to roentgenologic, echocardiographic and angiographic diagnosis, on the one hand, and a collective ECG diagnosis made by physicians, on the other. Automated electrocardiographic diagnosis is shown to be only slightly less accurate, as compared to physicians' diagnosis. Left ventricular hypertrophy was diagnosed correctly on the basis of ECG findings in 73.01% by a physicians' counsel, and in 69.8% of cases by the computer; in case of right ventricular hypertrophy, the rates were 55.2% and 44.7%, respectively.
