Recognising Cardiac Abnormalities in Wearable Device Photoplethysmography (PPG) with Deep Learning
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
ECG monitors are typically used to detect these events in electrical heart activity, however they are impractical for continuous long-term use. ...
Finally we examine how cardiac abnormalities manifest in PPG signal for in- and out-of-hospital patient populations using a wearable device during standard care. ...
For these patients, we have a once-aminute count of the zero or more PVCs detected in their ECG over that minute. ...
