specific Embodiment approach 1

[0026] Embodiment 1: This embodiment describes an atrial fibrillation detection method based on the time-frequency characteristics of a single-lead ECG signal, which divides the original ECG signal into normal sinus rhythm, atrial fibrillation, other arrhythmias or excessive noise. Four categories, the method includes the following steps:

[0027] Step 1: For the single-lead surface ECG signal (the signal length is in the range of 10-60 seconds), first perform a preprocessing operation to remove the baseline drift and some noise interference in the ECG signal;

[0028] Step 2: Calculate the change of signal energy in the time domain based on the sliding window method, and find the first window whose energy is not higher than the median value of the energy of each subsequent window. The corresponding part is removed from the signal, and the third step is performed; if the window does not exist, the signal is considered to be too noisy, and the detection process ends;

[0045] (1) Define the lower limit of the similarity within the group, that is, the minimum Pearson correlation coefficient of the heartbeat waveform within the group, and the value is about 0.8 (adjusted according to the signal noise intensity);

[0046] (2) Calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient between the heartbeat waveforms in the same signal, the formula is as follows

Abstract

The invention provides an arterial fibrillation detecting method based on the single lead electrocardiosignal time-frequency characteristic, and belongs to the crossing field of information processingtechnologies and medical treatment and health. A distinctive characteristic of the arterial fibrillation detecting method is that for a high-noise singe lead electrocardiosignal, the Pearson correlation coefficient is utilized to carry out simple clustering on all heartbeat waveforms in the same signal, and then noise disturbance of the heartbeat waveforms is eliminated by utilizing the average method; and the representative heartbeat waveform of the signal is found out, and then the time-frequency characteristic of the representative heartbeat waveform is extracted based on the Matching Pursuits algorithm and then is used for classifying the whole electrocardiosignal. In addition, the characteristic of the RR interval is further integrated (the heart rate variability characteristic and the time-frequency characteristic of the heartbeat waveform are combined), and thus the features of a method based on atrial activities and a method based on ventricular response are both achieved, andthe detecting method has high accuracy and good robustness.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the cross field of information processing technology and medical health, and relates to a method for classifying single-lead electrocardiographic signals, in particular to a method for detecting atrial fibrillation based on time-frequency characteristics of single-lead electrocardiographic signals. Background technique [0002] Atrial fibrillation (abbreviated as atrial fibrillation) is the most common persistent arrhythmia, with an incidence of 1 to 2% in the general population. The incidence of atrial fibrillation also increases with age, reaching 10% of people over the age of 75. Atrial fibrillation increases the risk of various diseases including sudden death, stroke, heart failure and coronary heart disease, and poses a serious threat to people's life and health. [0003] Because some atrial fibrillation is paroxysmal and may not have any obvious symptoms in the early stage, it is easy to be overlooked in the early stage,...
