a new approach to detect life threatening cardiac arrhythmias using sequential spectrum of electrocardiogram signals
نویسندگان
چکیده
this study evaluates the discriminative power of sequential spectrum analysis of the short-term electrocardiogram (ecg) time series in separating normal and subjects with life threatening arrhythmias like, ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation (vt/vf). the raw ecg time series is transformed into a series of binary symbols and the binary occupancy or relative distribution of mono-sequences (i.e. tuples containing only one type of symbol ‘0’ or ‘1’) is computed. the quantified approximate entropies (apen0 and apen1) of the binary occupancies in the sequential spectra are found to have potential in discriminating normal and vt/vf subjects and thus can significantly add to the prognostic value of traditional cardiac analysis. the receiver operating characteristic curve (roc) analysis confirms the robustness of this new approach and exhibits an average sensitivity of about 98.0% (97.1%), specificity of about 93.3% (93.3%), positive predictivity of around 94.7% (89.3%), and accuracy of about 95.9% (94.7%) with apen0 to distinguish between normal and vt (vf) subjects.

the aim of this study is to evaluate how far lempel-ziv complexity (lzc) of the binary symbolic sequences resulting from static or dynamic transformation (partitioning first-order difference) of the short-term electrocardiogram (ecg) signals (only 2 seconds duration) has the potential in discriminating normal and ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (vt/vf) subjects. the statistica...
متن کاملEntropy-Based Algorithm to Detect Life Threatening Cardiac Arrhythmias Using Raw Electrocardiogram Signals
Ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation (VT-VF) as fatal cardiac arrhythmia is the major cause leading to sudden cardiac death. It is crucial for the patient to receive immediate medical intervention when either VT or VF occurs. The aim of this study is to investigate the possibility of predicting ventricular arrhythmia from electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. We use symbolic dynamics together wit...
متن کاملA New Approach to Detect Congestive Heart Failure Using Symbolic Dynamics Analysis of Electrocardiogram Signal
The aim of this study is to show that the measures derived from Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals many a time perform better than the same measures obtained from heart rate (HR) signals. A comparison was made to investigate how far the nonlinear symbolic dynamics approach helps to characterize the nonlinear properties of ECG signals and HR signals, and thereby discriminate between normal and cong...
