Description
This work describes a Matlab1 tool originally developed in the HeartCycle2 European project and updated during the cardioRisk3 project. It addresses the analysis of the electrocardiogram (ECG) signal in the context of the management of heart failure (HF) patients. The toolbox is composed of six modules, focusing on the major clinical aspects relevant to HF diagnosis: signal delineation, detection of auricular and ventricular arrhythmias, ST segment deviation, and heart rate variability analysis. The effectiveness of the algorithms was validated using private and public datasets.
