Improving the Efficiency of Noninvasive Electrocardiography Screening System

Abstract

The paper considers the issues of improving the efficiency of noninvasive electrocardiodiagnostic screening system (NESS) based on the registration of multiple leads of the electrocardiographic signal (ECS). The proposed methods and means of ECS processing refer to the 4th generation electrocardiography, which allows obtaining new information about cardiac processes more reliably and revealing clinically significant cardiac pathologies under screening conditions.An approach to building NESS has been proposed that consists in "convergence" of solutions of direct and inverse electrocardiology problems with subsequent visualization of the results of the solutions for a visual presentation of the heart electrical activity (HEA) to the physician. Increased efficiency of NESS is due to the original "technological pipeline" of ECS processing: registration of multiple ECS leads, pre-processing of ECS, multivariate analysis of ECS, modeling and visualization of ECS.Physicians are provided with a tool for screening and diagnostics of HEA, providing increase of efficiency of HEA assessment on the basis of collection, processing and transfer of cardiographic information; modeling of HEA; visualization of HEA analysis results.
