...only five electrical stimuli per heartbeat, as against the standard machine's 13. These five are sufficient for basic screening. Since what is adjudged normal in an ECG varies with the subject's age, early models of the analyzer were set for use on only the age bracket of the volunteers being tested. Later models may be programmed for several age levels, which the technician can select by a simple dial...
