Abstract Background The significant features like an amplitude and intervals of electrocardiograph or P-QRS-T wave represent the functionality of the heart. Accurate extraction of these features helps in capturing characteristics of the signal helpful for the detection of cardiac abnormalities. In this paper, a novel signal folding-based algorithm is proposed to obtain detailed information about the complex morphology of signal. It explores the denoising and feature extraction of the specific ECG signals. Results The experimental study conducted using MIT-BIH Arrhythmia database ECG records with known conditions of left bundle branch block, right bundle branch block, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome beats has been considered. Heart rate values for selected ECG records from MIT-BIH dataset and synthetic signals from ECG simulator yielded the same values and thus validate our approach. Conclusion The proposed algorithm determines the heart rate, percentage leakage around the peak and is capable of folding a signal very efficiently based on detected R peaks and period-dependent gate(window).

A case of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome in an Indonesian neonate born in the Departement of Obstetrics, Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung, is reported. Tachycardia in the neonate was first noted at the age of 6 days, but the heart rate gradually decreased in 8 hours after oxygen was administered. Electrocardiographic examination revealed a Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. A second attack of tachycardia occurred at the age of 2 months and the infant was immediately hospitalized and treated with lanoxin. Serial electrocardiographic examination still revealed the same syndrome. The management and prognosis of supraventricular tachycardia in the neonate is also discussed.

This article is to design and develop a programming electrocardiogram (ECG) generator. It can be used to test the efficiency of algorithms and to calibration and maintenance of electrocardiograph equipment. We simplified and modified the three coupled ordinary differential equations of McSharry’s model to single differential equation to generate the synthetic ECG waveforms. This generator can provide the adjusted amplitude, heart rate, QRS-complex slopes, and P- and T-wave position parameters. The system can set the rage of the average gear rate from 20 to 120 beat per minute (BPM) with an adjustable variation of 1 BPM. The parameters of the adjusted synthetic ECG model can be stored in Flash memory of the system through Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 interface. The results were generated four different ECG waveforms for test which are Lead I, Lead II, hyperkalaemia and left bundle branch block. According to the experimental results, the system can not only generate the ECG waveforms of the setting heart rate but also can adjust the different types of ECG waveforms. ECG generator will generate the synthetic electrocardiograms for testing the electrocardiogram analytic algorithms. ECG generator will generate the synthetic electrocardiograms for testing the electrocardiogram analytic algorithms.
