Abstract:
In this paper a new version, more immune to noise, of the nonlinear projective filtering is presented. The method employs an algorithm of robust principal component analysis to signal subspaces construction and as a result it achieves high performance in real electromyographic noise environment. Two aspects of the method's action are investigated: its ability to suppress noise and its influence on the precision of the QT interval measurement. Then the method influence on evaluation of the beat-to-beat variability of the repolarization duration is presented. A comparison to the previous versions of the nonlinear projective filtering and to the classical linear one is carried out.

Correlation between ECG and Cardiac Cycle
A cardiac action potential originates in the SA node and spreads throughout the atria and the AV node in approximately 0.03 seconds. This results in the P wave in an ECG and triggers atrial contraction. The action potential is then briefly slowed at the AV node, allowing the atria to contract and fill the ventricles with blood before...

Components of the Electrocardiogram
The primary components of a normal ECG waveform in Normal sinus rhythm(NSR) include the P wave, PR interval, QRS complex, ST segment, T wave, and occasionally a U wave.
ECG waveforms are divided by vertical and horizontal lines at standard intervals.
The horizontal axis measures time and rate, and the vertical axis measures amplitude or voltage. When...
Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.
