“…Although there are small systematic differences between the measurements obtained with automated electrocardiographs from different manufacturers ( 24 , 25 ), their diagnostic results are similar in differentiating between specific individuals and populations. Nowadays, most of the efficacy tests are skewed to pathologic rhythms with much emphasis on AF ( 26 ), which accords with its increasing prevalence and the topic of this study. In the absence of absolute medical definition of waveform fiducial points, the stability of the “gold standard” of human judgment is subject to uncertainty ( 25 ).…”

IntroductionAtrial fibrillation (AF) is prone to heart failure and stroke. Early management can effectively reduce the stroke rate and mortality. Current clinical guidelines screen high-risk individuals based solely on age, while this study aims to explore the possibility of other AF risk predictors.MethodsA total of 18,738 elderly people (aged over 60 years old) in Chinese communities were enrolled in this study. The baseline characteristics were mainly based on the diagnosis results of electrocardiogram (ECG) machine during follow up, accompanied by some auxiliary physical examination basic data. After the analysis of both independent and combined baseline characteristics, AF risk predictors were obtained and prioritized according to the results. Independent characteristics were studied from three aspects: Chi-square test, Mann–Whitney U test and Cox univariate regression analysis. Combined characteristics were studied from two aspects: machine learning models and Cox multivariate regression analysis, and the former was combined with recursive feature elimination method and voting decision.ResultsThe resulted optimal combination of risk predictors included age, atrial premature beats, atrial flutter, left ventricular hypertrophy, hypertension and heart disease.ConclusionPatients diagnosed by short-time ECG machines with the occurrence of the above events had a higher probability of AF episodes, who are suggested to be included in the focus of long-term ECG monitoring or increased screening density. The incidence of risk predictors in different age ranges of AF patients suggests differences in age-specific patient management. This can help improve the detection rate of AF, standardize the management of patients, and slow down the progression of AF.

“…IoT technologies play a vital role in supporting ECG acquisition and transmission tasks. Existing efforts in the literature focus on the number of ECG electrodes to acquire data, design of portable ECG patches, transmission mechanisms to deliver captured ECG data between the patch and the cloud, and computational techniques that perform preprocessing on received data before making decisions [6] [7]. The recent ECG monitoring platforms rely on ECG signal classification with high accuracy, especially since the advent of deep learning (DL) techniques.…”

ECG monitoring systems have a significant role in detecting cardiovascular diseases and reducing the rate of sudden cardiac deaths through early warnings for heart attacks. One of the critical factors in supporting real-time ECG tracking is to guarantee monitoring system availability. This thesis focuses on battery life extension for a 12 Lead ECG patch utilizing compression and classification approaches. the opportunity to explore students' activities at Queen's while applying work-life balance.I would also like to thank all TRL and IoT Lab colleagues, partners of success, for their great support and encouragement towards making a successful and enjoyable academic experience. v

“…The 'Holter monitor', one of the earlier portable commercial ECG devices to monitor the signals can cost between 199 to 355 USD even today, which is unaffordable for many patients and healthcare staff. Moreover, replicating and developing a low-cost solution domestically remains a challenge [11]. Several proposed works in the past have focused on affordable design solutions and techniques to monitor heart rate.…”

A need for constant health monitoring system is essential especially for heart diseases which may cause sudden stroke and death. We present in this paper the design and development of a low cost, efficient and user-friendly ECG monitoring device. Most of the heart rate measurement devices and tools available are quite expensive and may not be easily available in some areas. Presented device monitors the patient’s body information using three lead silver chloride ECG disposable electrodes and detects the pulse signal. The detected heart pulse signal is first filtered and then amplified. The device displays the heart signal on a MATLAB graphical user interface while simultaneously showing the digitized pulse rate on a digital LCD. The device was tested on female patients aged 20-24. The results obtained were reliable compared with electrocardiogram reports and similar available devices of much higher development cost.
