An assessment of the dynamic interactions between cardiovascular signals can provide
valuable information to improve the understanding of cardiovascular control. In this study …

The two most common modes of death among chronic heart failure (CHF) patients are
sudden cardiac death (SCD) and pump failure death (PFD). Periodic repolarization …

A method for estimating respiratory rate from electrocardiogram (ECG) signals is presented.
It is based on QRS slopes and R-wave angle, which reflect respiration-induced beat …

Objective: We propose two electrocardiogram (ECG)-derived markers of T-wave
morphological variability in the temporal, d ω, and amplitude, d α, domains. Two additional …

We propose a novel method for evaluating the similarity between two 1d patterns. Our
method, referred to as two-dimensional signal war** (2DSW), extends the basic ideas of …

Background Patients with chronic heart failure are at high risk of sudden cardiac death
(SCD). Increased dispersion of repolarization restitution has been associated with SCD, and …

Instabilities in ventricular repolarization have been documented to be tightly linked to
arrhythmia vulnerability. Translation of the information contained in the repolarization phase …

Isolated episodes of heart rhythm disorders have been reported during 40 years of space
flight, triggering research to evaluate the risk of develo** life-threatening arrhythmias …

Background Considering the rates of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and pump failure death
(PFD) in chronic heart failure (CHF) patients and the cost-effectiveness of their preventing …

Background In the human electrocardiogram, there is a lag of adaptation of the QT interval to
heart rate changes, usually termed QT/RR hysteresis (QT‐hys). Subject‐specific quantifiers …
