A-11
Mortara algorithm
Only the differences from the Basic algorithm are listed.
HR
HR averaging method
In compliance with the requirements in Clause 4.1.2.1 d) of
ANSI/AAMI EC13, the following method is used:
Heart rate is computed by averaging the most recent 16 RR
intervals, unless the HR by averaging the most recent 4 heart
beats is less than or equals to 48 bpm.
The HR value displayed on the monitor screen is updated every
second.
