Summary

COI synopsis: When a patient has a suspected heart disease it’s often very difficult to diagnose precisely what’s wrong without the patient undergoing several days of hospital tests. A new miniature tape-recorder, designed to record scientific information, monitors the patient’s heart continuously over a 72 hour period of his normal life, to provide data from which a doctor can make his diagnosis.
