The ST-segment depression/heart rate (ST HR) analysis has been found to improve the
diagnostic accuracy of the exercise ECG test in detecting myocardial ischemia. Recently,
three different continuous diagnostic variables based on the ST HR analysis have been
introduced; the ST HR slope, the ST HR index and the ST HR hysteresis. The latter utilises
both the exercise and recovery phases of the exercise ECG test, whereas the two former are
based on the exercise phase only. This present article presents a computer program which …
