Computer characterization of sinus rhythm.

Abstract:

:Sinus rhythm tracings, including sinus tachycardia and bradycardia, are characterized quantitatively by means of an ECG measurement program which has been subjected to rigorous evaluation. The analysis is performed on tracings of short duration (10 sec). The features of regularity and stability are considered for the R wavetrain. Regularity is evaluated from the normalized differences between sucessive RR intervals. Stability is determined by the ratio of maximum and minimum RR interval durations. Due to the difficulities of automatic beat-to-beat detection and measurement of P waves, an estimate of the PR interval is obtained from a pseudo-PR interval determined from certain features of the P and R wavetrains. The constancy of this pseudo-PR interval is evaluated, and its absolute value is uded as a characteristic of the type of sinus rhythm.

  • Evaluation of index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance before and after hemodialysis in patients with end-stage renal disease.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac deaths are the most common cause of mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Index of cardiac-electrophysiological balance (iCEB) (QT/QRS) may predict malignant ventricular arrhythmias. In this study, we investigated whether iCEB value is increased...
