Tips for exporting tests:
You do not necessarily have to export a test to a floppy or external disk; you can also
export it to another location on your computer.
Test names
Each test has a unique name, so that tests are always retrievable and cannot be duplicated.
The structure of a test name is:
Test type (ECG/SPIRO/XECG/ABP/Recollect)
Recording date (YYYYMMDD)
Recording time (HHMMSS)
Name of the patient
