4. Interpreting an exercise ECG
Once you have viewed, measured and compared the information in the exercise ECG, you
can add, edit and confirm the interpretation.
4.1 Edit, save and confirm interpretation
After test anyone with edit rights can edit an unconfirmed interpretation in the Interpretation
editor. In this editor, you can enter your own texts. Alternatively, you can use the statement
tree to select and enter common interpretation statements. Until confirmed, the test will be
labeled as
„Unconfirmed Interpretation‟.
Once the interpretation has been confirmed by a physician, only a user with confirm
interpretation rights can further edit the interpretation. For more information on user rights see
the Administrator tool.
