Electrocardiologic device for assisted diagnosis, preferably for the diagnosis of Brugada syndrome or Early Repolarization syndrome. This device allows characterizing the ventricular repolarization wave of an ECG signal collected from a patient. Extracting out of the ECG signal, for each heart beat, an ST segment is constituted of a successsion of samples of the ventricular repolarization wave, taken within a time window ([Q ON +80 ms, Q ON +140 ms]) of a predetermined duration spreading from a moment of window onset defined by a time offset applied to a predetermined temporal origin given by the moment (Q ON ) of appearance of the QRS complex, whose time position is determined on the ECG signal for each heart beat. Quantizing computes an elevation index compared to a predetermined reference level (BL), and analyzing over a succession of heart beats the persistence and/or variation of this elevation index. |
