Sudden cardiac death SCD - Development of methods and tools for ambulatory electrocardiographic signal processing and analysis.
From 01-01-2013 to 31-12-2018
Description
The project objectives are:
- To characterize and to improve the methods, algorithms and tools for pre-processing, processing and analysis of ECG signal and its associated time series (RR and QT), especially in the presence of noise (seeking their applicability to improve the Cuban holter system).
- To characterize and to improve the indexes computed for cardiac interval variability in the presence of artefacts (false positive and negative) in RR and QT intervals time series.
- To improve the education and scientific level of the academic and scientific personnel in the areas of biomedical signal and image processing, by stimulating joint projects and collaboration between researchers of the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KUL) in Belgium and Universidad de Oriente (UO) in Cuba.
- To set up a research laboratory/classroom to improve the infrastructure the Biomedical Engineering PhD and Master programs, in the Electrical Engineering Faculty with the support of the academic staff in Biomedical Engineering from the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven.
