Chapter 1A Clinical Perspective on Atrial Fibrillation

Platonov, Pyotr G.; Corino, Valentina D. A.

Pages: 1 –24

[Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia encountered in clinical practice which requires therapeutic interventions. It severely affects the quality of life and is also one of the most common risk factors of ischemic stroke, which may lead to irreversible handicap and death. This chapter...

Chapter 2Lead Systems and Recording Devices

Petrėnas, Andrius; Marozas, Vaidotas; Sörnmo, Leif

Pages: 25 –48

[This chapter provides an overview of ECG lead systems and commercial devices for atrial fibrillation monitoring, with special emphasis on devices using few leads. The rapid development of electronics has given rise to various approaches, ranging from invasive devices to short-term screening...

Chapter 3Databases and Simulation

Sörnmo, Leif; Petrėnas, Andrius; Marozas, Vaidotas

Pages: 49 –71

[The most popular public databases employed in engineering-oriented research are described in this chapter. Various aspects on the simulation of ECG signals in atrial fibrillation are considered, and a simulator of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is described in detail. The chapter ends with a...

Chapter 4Detection of Atrial Fibrillation

Sörnmo, Leif; Petrėnas, Andrius; Marozas, Vaidotas

Pages: 73 –135

[In this chapter, the main design principles used in detection of atrial fibrillation are reviewed, either exploring rhythm information only or information on both rhythm and atrial wave morphology. Aspects on detector implementation are briefly considered, and the pros and cons of different...

Chapter 5Extraction of f Waves

Sörnmo, Leif; Petrėnas, Andrius; Laguna, Pablo; Marozas, Vaidotas

Pages: 137 –220

[This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of methods for f wave extraction, divided into the following categories: average beat subtraction and variants, interpolation, extended Kalman filtering, adaptive filtering, principal component analysis, singular spectral analysis, autoregressive...

Chapter 6Characterization of f Waves

Sörnmo, Leif; Alcaraz, Raúl; Laguna, Pablo; Rieta, José Joaquín

Pages: 221 –279

[This chapter reviews different approaches to f wave characterization. The two fundamental characteristics f wave amplitude and atrial fibrillatory rate are first considered, followed by a description of linear and nonlinear techniques for characterizing wave morphology and regularity. The...

Chapter 7Modeling and Analysis of Ventricular Response in Atrial Fibrillation

Corino, Valentina D. A.; Sandberg, Frida; Mainardi, Luca T.; Sörnmo, Leif

Pages: 281 –311

[This chapter begins with an overview of results reported in clinical studies on RR interval analysis during atrial fibrillation, followed by a brief overview of methods for heuristic assessment of the atrioventricular node. The main part of the chapter reviews several AV node models proposed for...
