Removal of ECG Artifacts from Myoelectric Prosthesis Control Signals

چکیده
Abstract We investigated removal of electrocardiogram (ECG) artifacts from the myoelectric prosthesis control signals, taken from the reinnervated pectoralis muscles of a patient with bilateral amputations at shoulder disarticulation level. The performance of various ECG artifact removal methods including high pass filtering, spike clipping, template subtracting, wavelet thresholding and adaptive filtering was presented. In particular, considering the clinical requirements and memory limitation of commercial prosthesis controllers, we further explored suitable means of ECG artifact removal for clinical application.

Complexity Analysis of Surface EMG for Overcoming ECG Interference toward Proportional Myoelectric Control
Electromyographic (EMG) signals from muscles in the body torso are often contaminated by electrocardiography (ECG) interferences, which consequently compromise EMG intensity estimation. The ECG interference has become a barrier to proportional control of myoelectric prosthesis using a neural machine interface called targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR), which involves transferring the residual a...

The electrocardiogram (ECG) is used for diagnosis of heart diseases. In a few circumstances the recorded ECG signals are corrupted by various noise signals caused by power line interference, base line wander, electrode movement, muscular movement (EMG) etc. These noise signals are known as artifacts. These artifacts mislead the diagnosis of heart which is not desired. To avoid this problem caus...

ECG signals have been proven a very versatile tool for detection of cardiovascular diseases. But during recording of these signals, the ECG data gets contaminated by various noise signals caused by power line interference, base line wander, electrode movement, muscle movement (EMG) etc. These noise signals are known as artifacts. These artifacts mislead the diagnosis of heart which is not desir...
