Abstract
A simple numerical coding system for clinical electrocardiography has been developed. This system enables the storage in coded form of the ECG analysis. The code stored on a digital magnetic tape can be used for a computer print-out of the analysis, while the information can be retrieved at any time if needed. Experience gained in the coding of 35,000 ECGs has shown that the system meets the requirements in a large hospital, and can easily be combined with computer analysis of ECGs.
