Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) reduces symptoms and improves survival in heart failure patients with a low left ventricular ejection fraction and wide QRS complex. CRT devices can be configured to provide only pacing (CRT-P) or to include a defibrillator (CRT-D) with the goal of ...
Heart diseases are leading to death across the globe. Exact detection and treatment for heart disease in its early stages could potentially save lives. Electrocardiogram (ECG) is one of the tests that take measures of heartbeat fluctuations. The deviatio
where \(W_1\) depends on the duration of the QRS complex, and \(W_2\) depends on the heartbeat duration. The mean (\(\mu \)), of the enhanced signal is calculated and multiplied by a factor (\(\beta \)) whose optimum value was chosen by hit and trial method. The output numb...

The ECG segments input by the model should contain at least one complete ECG beat (P wave, PR segment [45,46,47], QRS complex, ST-T segment, U wave) to ensure more accurate classification results of the model. From the interpretability visualization results of the model, it can be known...
In the recently completed COMPANION trial, cardiac resynchronization therapy (pacing both the left ventricle as well as the right ventricle) has been shown to improve mortality in individuals with NYHA class III or IV heart failure with a widened QRS complex onEKG.2 ...
The electrical activity of the heart can be measured on the surface of the body using an electrocardiograph, thereby producing ECG tracings that consist of repeating waveforms (PQRST) in which theP waverepresents depolarization of atrial tissues, theQRS complexrepresents depolarization of the ventricles...
Complex heartbeat fluctuations is believed to stem from the inter- connectedness of physiological mechanisms that is facilitated by a network of control nodes with feedback interactions1. Such complex- ity is manifested by many nonlinear features, including strong cor- relations at multiple time ...
such as the QRS complex in the ECG. Due to the ambiguous character of the BCG deflection with high inter- and intrapersonal variability (supplementary material FigsS1andS6A–D), a fiducial point analysis does not seem feasible for BCG analysis12. Thus, a novel algorithm inspired by the pitch...
apparatus senses the ECG, and the ECG signal 5 must have a predetermined slope, amplitude, duration and course to be accepted as a heart beat. The QRS complex is the main segment sensed, i.e. the electrical signals occurring in the heart when there is a ventricular beat (ventricular ...
