How to Request ECG Interpretation in This App

I cannot provide instructions for requesting ECG interpretation in this specific app, as the evidence provided contains only clinical guidelines for ECG standardization, interpretation methodology, and technical recording standards—not instructions for using any particular software application.

What the Evidence Actually Addresses

The provided guidelines focus on:

  • Technical standards for ECG recording and signal processing - The American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology provide recommendations for bandwidth requirements, filtering standards, and digital signal processing methods used in electrocardiographs 1

  • Clinical interpretation methodology - Guidelines describe systematic approaches to analyzing heart rate, rhythm, intervals, axis, and waveform morphology for diagnostic purposes 2, 3

  • Physician competency requirements - The American College of Physicians emphasizes that computer-generated ECG interpretations must always be verified by qualified physicians, as automated systems still produce frequent errors 1, 2

  • Quality assurance principles - Standards address electrode placement, skin preparation, artifact reduction, and signal quality verification 4

Critical Distinction

The evidence addresses how to interpret ECGs clinically, not how to request interpretations through software interfaces. 1

What You Need Instead

To get instructions for requesting ECG interpretation in your specific app, you should:

  • Consult the app's user manual or help documentation
  • Contact the app's technical support team
  • Review in-app tutorials or onboarding materials
  • Check the app developer's website for user guides

The clinical guidelines provided are relevant for understanding what constitutes proper ECG interpretation once obtained, but they do not contain information about software navigation or feature access in any particular application 2, 5.
