Dictionary-based monitoring of premature ventricular contractions: An ultra-low-cost point-of-care service

作者:

Highlights:

• Ultra-low-cost point-of-care service for monitoring premature ventricular contractions using dictionary-based classification and compression algorithms.

• Performance evaluation on MIT/BIH arrhythmia database using Monte Carlo cross validation.

• Workload of physicians is reduced by at least 85.9% for non-critical cases, by localizing PVC beats.

• 118-fold cost reduction compared to first-generation telecardiology.

• Significant performance improvement over known algorithms in telecardiological context.
