Next, the waveform search display area 1 is
A predetermined 12-lead data 18 is dragged out of the electrocardiogram waveform on the line 1 (S3) and dropped to a predetermined position on the heartbeat waveform display area 12 (S4). Steps S3 and S4 are repeatedly executed the number of times that data needs to be taken.

Thus, a list of predetermined captured data is displayed in the heartbeat waveform display area 12 (S5).

It should be noted that one of the limb guidance display and the chest guidance display is selected by default. FIG. 2 shows a case where the limb guidance display is selected. To switch to the chest guidance display, use the mouse to

This completes the basic processing.

Next, details of the editing process will be described.
FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the sorting process in the editing process. This is the processing S6 of the basic processing (FIG. 4).
It shows the details.

First, "1. Rearrange" is clicked with the mouse from the menu 20 displayed on the screen of the display 2 (S11).

Next, the mouse is moved to a position where a predetermined heartbeat waveform is displayed among the heartbeat waveforms taken into the heartbeat waveform display area 12 (S12), and the heartbeat waveform is dragged with the mouse (S13).

Next, the mouse is moved to the destination while dragging the heartbeat waveform with the mouse (S14).

Next, by dropping (releasing) the drag, the heartbeat waveform is inserted at the destination (S1).
5).

Next, the heartbeat waveform at the movement source is deleted (S1).
6). This is executed by, for example, clicking a “delete button” (not shown) on the display screen with a mouse.

Thus, the rearrangement process ends.

Next, the sensitivity change processing in the editing processing will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the sensitivity changing process. This also shows details of the processing S6 of the basic processing (FIG. 4).

First, "2. Change sensitivity" is clicked with the mouse from the menu 20 displayed on the screen of the display 2 (S21).

Next, the sensitivity to be changed is clicked on the screen of the display 2 from the "sensitivity change list" (not shown) with the mouse (S22).

As a result, the sensitivity of the heartbeat waveform displayed on the screen is changed to the clicked sensitivity (S23).

That is, the display of the heartbeat waveform in the vertical axis direction is enlarged or reduced. This ends the sensitivity change processing.

Next, the sensitivity to be changed is clicked on the screen of the display 2 from the "sweep speed change list" (not shown) with the mouse (S32).

Thus, the sweep speed of the heartbeat waveform displayed on the screen is changed to the clicked sweep speed (S3).
3).

That is, the display of the heartbeat waveform in the horizontal axis direction is enlarged or reduced. This completes the sweep speed change processing.

Next, a description will be given of a process of taking the heartbeat waveform data into the heartbeat waveform display area 12 on the display 2 at predetermined time intervals. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a procedure of a process of acquiring heartbeat waveform data at predetermined time intervals. This is a modification of the processing procedures S1 to S4 of the basic processing (FIG. 4).

First, as an initial setting, a heartbeat waveform and the time at which the heartbeat waveform was acquired are stored in the hard disk device in association with each other.

Now, it is assumed that heartbeat waveforms collected at equal time intervals are stored in the hard disk device. These are assumed to be nine heartbeat waveform data collected from time T11 to T19. The process of taking in every other heartbeat waveform data on the screen of the display 2 from the oldest time will be described as an example.

First, a range of the capture time is input (S3).
1). Therefore, T11 is input as the capture start time and T19 is input as the capture end time.

Next, the capture time interval is input (S3).
2). Therefore, the time (T12-T11) is input as the interval time.

The basic processing device 1 calculates the fetch time based on the three types of input times (S33).

The time can be input by selecting a predetermined time from a time selection button (not shown) displayed on the screen of the display 2 with a mouse, or by inputting a predetermined time from a keyboard (not shown).

First, the basic processing device 1 outputs a time T11. Since the time T11 is the first time to be captured, the capture time is valid (S34). Therefore, the basic processing device 1 reads out the heartbeat waveform data at the time T11 from the hard disk device and stores the data in the heartbeat waveform display area 12. Capture (S35).

Next, the process returns to step S33, and the basic processing device 1
Outputs the next time T13. Since the time T13 is the second time to be captured, the capture time is valid (S3
4) Therefore, the basic processing device 1 reads out the heartbeat waveform data at the time T13 from the hard disk device, and takes the data into the heartbeat waveform display area 12 (S35).

In this manner, the processing S33 to S35 are repeated, and when the acquisition by the time T19 is completed, the acquisition time becomes invalid in the next processing S34, and the processing S shown in FIG.
You will go to 5.

As a result, a list of heartbeat waveform data at times T11, T13, T15, T17, and T19 is displayed in the heartbeat waveform display area 12 (S5). The processing after step S6 is as described above.
