NAME

sumstats - derive aggregate statistics from bxb, rxr, etc., line-format output

SYNOPSIS

sumstats file

DESCRIPTION

This program derives the aggregate statistics described in sections 4.6.1 and 5.6 of Testing and Reporting Performance Results of Ventricular Arrhythmia Detection Algorithms (AAMI ECAR-1987), and additional statistics specified by the American National Standard for Ambulatory Electrocardiographs (ANSI/AAMI EC38-1994).

To use this program, first generate a line-format report file using the -l or -L options of bxb(1) , epic(1) , mxm(1) , or rxr(1) . This file must include column headings so that sumstats can recognize the file type. Output is written to the standard output; it includes a copy of the input file, with aggregate statistics appended at the end.
