The IBM 5880 Electrocardiograph System was announced in 1978, a computerized interoperative system which aids in the physicians diagnostic decisions.[1]

In the early 1970s an IBM scientist, Ray Bonner, worked somewhat outside the normal scope of his DP research to develop one of the first artificial intelligence programs, designed to analyse ECGs (electrocardiographs)to the same standards as a consultant cardiologist. These programs originally ran of IBM mainframe computers. However, in 1978 they were ported to mobile ECG carts, for use around hospitals.
