An electrode multiplexing physiological parameter monitoring ring, comprising a built-in power supply (2), a microprocessor module (1), an electrocardiogram monitoring analog front end (3), a skin conductance monitoring module (4), a first electrode (6), and a second electrode (7). The microprocessor module (1) is connected to the electrocardiogram monitoring analog front end (3) and the skin conductance monitoring module (4). The first electrode (6) and the second electrode (7) are connected to the electrocardiogram monitoring analog front end (3), and the electrocardiogram monitoring analog front end (3) processes electrocardiogram signals collected by the first electrode (6) and the second electrode (7). The first electrode (6) and the second electrode (7) are further connected to the skin conductance monitoring module (4), and the skin conductance monitoring module (4) processes skin impedance signals collected by the first electrode (6) and the second electrode (7). A coupling manner in which the first electrode (6) and the second electrode (7) are coupled to the electrocardiogram monitoring analog front end (3) is direct current coupling or alternating current coupling, and is opposite to a coupling manner in which the first electrode (6) and the second electrode (7) are coupled to the skin conductance monitoring module (4). By means of the electrode multiplexing physiological parameter monitoring ring, electrocardiogram monitoring, heart rate monitoring, and skin conductance monitoring are implemented through only two electrodes, so that the number of electrodes is reduced, and system design is simplified.

A method includes receiving a bipolar signal sensed by a pair of electrodes at a location in a heart of a patient. One or more electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are received, sensed by body-surface electrodes attached to the patient. Two or more successive QRS complexes are identified in the bipolar signal. One or more activations are detected in the bipolar signal, which occur within a window-of-interest that begins at least a given time with respect to the identified QRS complexes. The detected activations are checked whether they are late potentials, by verifying whether (i) the activations do not coincide with a predefined event observed in the ECG signals, and (ii) the activations are repeatable in the successive QRS complexes. In response to deciding that at least one of the detected activations is a late potential, the latest of the at least one of the late potentials is visualized to a user.
