20240350095 · 2024-10-24 ·

Disclosed herein, in some aspects, are systems and methods for detecting, monitoring, and managing a cardiac health status for a subject using ECG data. In some embodiments, the system receives health parameter measurements from one or more devices that are then used by a cardiac health tool (CHT) to determine a cardiac health status. Exemplary health parameter measurements include electrocardiogram (ECG) data from an ECG device and/or weight (from a weight scale for example). As described herein, in some embodiments, determining the cardiac health status includes a) detecting a cardiac condition in the subject, b) predicting a risk of a subject developing a cardiac condition (cardiac condition risk), and/or c) temporal monitoring of a cardiac health status for a subject. In some embodiments, the cardiac health tool is configured to determine the efficacy of a treatment or therapy applied to reduce the severity and/or risk of a cardiac condition.

An ECG system identifies and annotates cardiac electrophysiological signals in an ECG waveform from harmonic waveforms. Electrical impulses are received from a beating heart. The electrical impulses are converted to an ECG waveform. The ECG waveform is converted to a frequency domain waveform, which, in turn, is separated into two or more different frequency domain waveforms, which, in turn, are converted into a plurality of time domain cardiac electrophysiological subwaveforms and discontinuity points between these subwaveforms. The plurality of subwaveforms and discontinuity points are compared to a database of subwaveforms and discontinuity points for normal and abnormal patients. At least one subwaveform or one or more discontinuity points are identified as a normal or abnormal electrophysiological signal of the ECG waveform from the comparison. The ECG waveform is displayed along with one or more markers at a location of the at least one subwaveform or one or more discontinuity points.

Systems and methods for assessing electrocardiogram reliability

The present technology is an automated method for determining whether a patient-specific electrocardiogram (ECG) is either (a) Normal and can be excluded from manual review or (b) Abnormal and included for manual review. In one embodiment, the method comprises comparing a plurality of characteristics of the ECG with predetermined subthreshold levels that are set less than clinically significant levels of abnormality of the characteristics, wherein the characteristics of the ECG are selected from the group including T-Wave inversion, ST-Depression, QT segment duration, delta wave character, anterior S-wave character and ectopic or pre-mature beats. The method continues by selecting the ECG for manual review if the plurality of selected characteristics exceed the predetermined subthreshold levels yet are below the corresponding clinically significant threshold levels of abnormality of the characteristics.

Heart electrophysiological signal analysis system

A system automatically detects and measures ST deviation of a heart wave ECG signal in the presence of noise and accommodates baseline variation of the signal and other artifacts. A system identifies a particular point in an electrophysiological signal representing heart electrical activity using an interface for receiving an electrical signal waveform comprising an R-wave and including an ST segment portion associated with heart electrical activity of a patient over a heart beat cycle. A signal processor processes data representing the electrical signal waveform by identifying an S point and T point in the electrical signal waveform and determining a first candidate J point in the electrical signal waveform having substantially a maximum distance from a line between the identified S and T points, the distance being measured perpendicularly to the line.
