Pre-processing
- Built-in beat detection for ECG and PPG data
- Automatic noise detection algorithm with adjustable sensitivity
- Automatic beat correction algorithm for correcting missed, extra and misaligned beats from RR interval data
- Optimal trend removal (to enhance short-term HRV analysis)
HRV analysis
- Analyze specified time periods or process the whole recording using time-varying analysis
- Parasympathetic (PNS) and sympathetic nervous system (SNS) indexes for stress and recovery monitoring
- Time-domain HRV parameters: Mean RR, SDNN, RMSSD, pNN50, HRV triangular index, TINN, HR deceleration (DC) and acceleration capacity (AC) etc.
- Frequency-domain HRV parameters: VLF, LF and HF band powers, peak frequencies and LF/HF ratio
- Nonlinear HRV parameters: Poincare plot (SD1, SD2, and SD2/SD1), ApEn, SampEn, Detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA), Recurrence plot analysis (RPA), and Multiscale entropy (MSE)
- Time-varying analysis to assess time trends for time-domain, frequency-domain and nonlinear HRV parameters.
- Respiration rate (RESP) estimate for exercise physiology, accurate respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) analysis, and individual resonance frequency assessment.
ECG waveform analysis
- QRS duration, QT and QTc times, and P, Q, R, S and T wave amplitudes for specified time periods
- Parameters are extracted from an average ECG waveform (selection criteria for averaged beats can be adjusted).
Training data analysis
