[Clinical testing of the Sicard system for automatic evaluation of electrocardiograms].

Appraisal of the Sicard (Siemens) system for the automated evaluation of ECG's is reported. 528 ECG's were simultaneously recorded on paper and magnetic tape and examined by a group of specialists and the 404/3 computer forming part of the system, followed by a check on an IBM computer. A very high percentage of fits was noted and a favourable judgment is passed on the system.
