ABSTRACT:
A risk management system for use in a health care facility which receives patients who may be experiencing cardiac problems, the system including a first input port for receiving inputs derived from electrocardiograph measurements of a patient; a predictive instrument for using the inputs to compute a probability of the patient having a particular heart condition; a printer for generating a risk management form reporting the computed probability for the patient as well as other clinical and ECG-related observations for the patient, the form also containing categories requiring a person who is evaluating the patient to enter additional information relating to the evaluation of the patient, the computed probability triggering the printer to generate the form only when the computed probability falls within a preselected range which is less than the total range of possible values for the computed probability.
