Prediction of the effect of electrical defibrillation by using spectral feature parameters.

This paper proposes a system for predicting the effect of electrical defibrillation using spectral feature parameters. The proposed method consists of two-stage prediction. The first stage involves predicting whether electrical defibrillation is "Successful" or "Ineffective.

High accuracy distinction of shockable and non-shockable arrhythmias in abnormal classes through wavelet transform with pseudo differential like operators.

Arrhythmia is an abnormal rhythm of the heart which leads to sudden death. Among these arrhythmias, some are shockable, and some are non-shockable arrhythmias with external defibrillation. The automated external defibrillator (AED) is used as the automated arrhythmia diagnosis system and requires an accurate and rapid decision to increase the survival rate.
