Continuous assessment of ECG signal quality

摘要

A method and system for assessing an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal quality are disclosed. In a first aspect, the method comprises determining a Kurtosis calculation of the ECG signal and determining whether the Kurtosis calculation satisfies a first threshold to continuously assess the ECG signal quality. In a second aspect, the system comprises a wireless sensor device coupled to a user via at least one electrode, wherein the wireless sensor device includes a processor and a memory device coupled to the processor, wherein the memory device stores an application which, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to determine a Kurtosis calculation of the ECG signal and to determine whether the Kurtosis calculation satisfies a first threshold to continuously assess the ECG signal quality.
