Rapid trend detection for an ambulatory monitoring system
1Sharp Laboratories of America, USA. Yongji_Fu@bd.com
Abstract:
An algorithm for rapid trend detection of physiological parameter is introduced for ambulatory monitoring applications. Kalman prediction error of monitored parameter is used to estimate the physiological status and detect rapid change. With this algorithm, rapid trend during ambulatory monitoring can be found to predict disease exacerbation; and it is also applied to identify outliers of measurement due to poor signal quality to avoid false alarms.

Pulse rhythm
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac muscle...

Holter Monitor: 24-Hour Monitoring
Holter monitoring is a continuous electrocardiography (ECG) recording that tracks the heart's electrical activity over an extended period, generally 24 to 48 hours. This noninvasive diagnostic tool detects irregular heart rhythms that may not be captured during a standard ECG performed in a clinical setting.DeviceThe Holter monitor is a portable, small device connected to several electrodes on the patient's chest. These electrodes detect the heart's electrical signals and transmit them to the...
