The method. The step by step method for finding the points on P ao and P pa , as labelled on the right. The graphics beside each step are for illustration only and are not meant to be part of the definition of the method, rather to see the method in operation on a representative P ao waveform. Note that the methods described here for DMPG and DN are note complete as these require a more complex method, refer to Sections Finding DMPG and Finding DN for the complete method for these two points.
