Analysis between ECG and respiratory signal

Abstract

Nowadays, with the advanced technological development and the higher attention on health issue, many wearable devices are designed to value health care. When you wear the devices which combine with medical equipment, you do not need to go to hospitals to take physical examination in particular if you just want to check your physical conditions initially. Instead, you can take the physical examination as long as you wear devices with medical equipment. Heart is the most important organ in the human body. Life ends when heart stops beating. Thus, nowadays, the wearable devices is often build in heartbeat measurement. This study, through analyzing ECG, aims to figure out the relation between ECG and respiration. With ECG-Derived Respiration (EDR) signals, we calculated times of breathing and compared them with breathing signal from self-made breathing flow meter AT01. It is proved that the accuracy rate is up to 90% when the ECG signals are received well.
