To compare the technical characteristics and the results of the study of medical instruments, whose work is based on the isolation of the characteristics of various elements of a cardiac signal, and in particular R-waves, a generator producing pulses of the special form is necessary. Such generators are not manufactured by our industry at present. An attachment for the formation of special-form pulses, intended for use with the type G6-15 standard generator, is described. The attachment allows one to obtain the sequence of triangular pulses with increased pulse period/pulse duration ratio. These pulses imitate the sequence of R-waves with metrologically ensured parameters.

Background: Medical personnel carrying out electrical cardioversion (EC) procedures must remember to have the R-wave sync mode switched on, use the correct energy and maintain personal safety. The defibrillators used by medical response teams most often switch out of cardioversion mode once a shock is delivered. Therefore, this mode must be switched on again before subsequent shocks are delivered.

The heart beats are due to the synchronized contraction of cardiomyocytes triggered by a periodic sequence of electrical signals called action potentials, which originate in the sinoatrial node and spread through the heart's electrical system. A large body of work is devoted to modeling the propagation of the action potential and to reproducing reliably its shape and duration. Connection of computational modeling of cells to macroscopic phenomenological curves such as the electrocardiogram has been also intense, due to its clinical importance in analyzing cardiovascular diseases.

These technologies can provide mechanistic explanations for clinically observed pathological behaviour. Designing virtual cohorts for in silico trials requires exploiting clinical data to capture the physiological variability in the human population.

An electrocardiogram, used to not only assess the rate and rhythm of the heart but also to evaluate for injury to the heart, is performed by attaching 12 leads to the patient's body. A myocardial infarction can be mimicked by the misplacement of the leads. A 58-year-old man with long-distance running-associated bradycardia developed postoperative atrial fibrillation with a rapid ventricular response.

Background: T-wave alternans (TWA) analysis was shown in >14,000 individuals studied worldwide over the past two decades to be a useful tool to assess risk for cardiovascular mortality and sudden arrhythmic death. TWA analysis by the modified moving average (MMA) method is FDA-cleared and CMS-reimbursed (CAG-00293R2).
Objective: Because the MMA technique is inherently suitable for dynamic tracking of alternans levels, it was selected for development of artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled algorithms using convolutional neural networks (CNN) to achieve rapid, efficient, and accurate assessment of P-wave alternans (PWA), R-wave alternans (RWA), and TWA.
