The goal of the Computers in Cardiology / Physionet Challenge 2009 is to predict which patients will experience acute hypotensive episode within a forecast window of one hour. In our study, statistically robust features extracted from the supplied training ...
Atrial fibrillation is the most common sustained cardiac rhythm disturbance, increasing in prevalence with age. During the past 20 years, there has been a 66% increase in hospital admissions related to atrial fibrillation. Neither the natural history of at ...
Clinical standard 12-lead ECG recordings over 5 minutes on patients in atrial fibrillation or in atrial flutter were analyzed. After suppression of the signal components related to ventricular activity, the amplitude spectra of all leads were inspected. Th ...
One of the rhythm control strategies in atrial fibrillation management consists in the application of a brief single electrical shock to the atria. This electrical cardioversion does not always succeed, and the long-term success of this therapy is not suff ...
