Morphological Event Based Signal Quality Assessment of Electrocardiogram
Abstract:
ECG signals acquired from mobile devices by unskilled users are corrupted with several noises. Poor signal quality may result in an increased number of false alarms, degrading diagnostic performance, and increasing the burden on the doctors in decoding the information for further clinical intervention. So, it is necessary to assess the quality of the signals before doing any further processing. This paper presents a method for accessing the reliability of ECG signals obtained from wearable sensors. A morphological event-based quality assessment method is proposed where a signal will be classified as GOOD/BAD. Results show that our method can achieve an accuracy = 92 % with sensitivity = 0.98 and specificity = 0.59.

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.

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....
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...
