Nonlinear analysis of the heartbeats in public patient ECGs using an automated PD2i algorithm for risk stratification of arrhythmic death

James E Skinner, Jerry M Anchin, Daniel N WeissVicor Technologies, Inc., Bangor, PA, USAAbstract: Heart rate variability (HRV) reflects both cardiac autonomic function and risk of arrhythmic death (AD). Reduced indices of HRV based on linear stochastic models are independent risk factors for AD in p...
