Abstract
Abstract A method and a system of evaluating data picked-up by means of a long term ECG device and stored in a permanent memory, is characterized in that, in a first step, a transfer is effected of the data of the permanent memory onto a data carrier independent from the long term ECG device, with a brief evaluation of the data being simultaneously carried out; and in that, in a second step, the data transferred to the independent data carrier is subjected to detail evaluation at an evaluation center.

Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
Method in accordance with claim 1, characterised in that the results of the brief evaluation are made visible via an optical display.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
Method in accordance with claim 1 characterised in that during the brief evaluation at least the number of the pathological and serious events for the judgement of the ECG are detected.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
32 words
Method in accordance with claim 1 characterised in that the transfer of the data from the permanent memory to the independent data carrier takes place in the form of an identical copy.
