10702179 · 2020-07-07 ·

A two-dimensional visual display that allows for the user and/or another individual, such as the user's spouse, to experience self-evident, abnormally complex elevated heart rate arrhythmia. The system of the present invention uses a heart rate monitor, along with data analysis, to provide the user with a visual display, seismic feel, and/or aural feedback that allow for the user to be quickly alerted as to any arrhythmia, thereby signaling to the user to change their activity in order to avoid sudden cardiac death.

Long QT Syndrome Diagnosis and Classification
20200196898 · 2020-06-25 ·

A method for detecting long QT syndrome in a subject comprises obtaining data corresponding to an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal of the subject, identifying a set of features in the data based on selected inflection points of the ECG signal, using the set of features to categorize segments of the ECG signal, and using the categorized segments of the ECG signal and the inflection points to classify the ECG signal as normal or as long QT syndrome. Long QT syndrome is detected when the subject's ECG signal is classified as long QT syndrome. The method may include determining whether the long QT syndrome is Type 1 or Type 2.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETECTING STRESS USING BEAT-TO-BEAT ECG FEATURES

Method and device for calculating an indicator indicative of stress and device for on-line detecting stress using individual heart beat ECG features of data acquired from a subject, comprising: obtaining a data sample of each heart beat individually from the acquired data; calculating the fiducial features from each said data sample; classifying each data sample as indicative of stressed or not-stressed, using a pretrained classifier which was previously trained using the same fiducial heart beat features from previously acquired reference data samples from individual heart beats, determining an indication of stress as detected when at least one data sample is classified as stressed. Stress can be determined as detected when one data sample is classified as stressed over a time duration of: only one heart beat and the RR distance between said one heart beat and the previous heart beat.
