METHOD FOR EVALUATING TIME RELATED, IN PARTICULAR BY ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY RECOGNIZED, MEASUREMENTS OF HEART

摘要

There is provided a method for evaluating time-related measurement data of a heart described, in particular the deformation of the heart muscle, whereby cyclic changes in measured quantities during several cardiac cycles recorded will be grouped in sets of measuring data and evaluated. In order to evaluate the dispersion of the measurement datasets quantitatively is proposed that initially from the recorded respectively during a cardiac cycle measurement records an average measurement data History (3) and an associated profile (4) the standard deviation (s) are determined from the time-related metrics and then a coefficient of variation of the respectively over the cycle time accumulated gradients (4) of the standard deviations (s) and the averaged measurement data is calculated before the averaged measurement data profile (3) is based on a comparison of the variation coefficient with a predetermined upper limit value selected and evaluated.
