Singularity spectra analysis of the ST segments of 12-lead electrocardiogram / 生物医学工程学杂志

ABSTRACT

By analysing the f(a) singularity spectra of the ST segments of the synchronous 12-lead ECG, we have found that the singularity spectrum is close to monofractality and its area is only half the area of the synchronous 12-lead ECG f(alpha) singularity spectrum. The ST segments of the synchronous 12-lead ECG signal also has f(alpha) singularity spectra distribution and it also has a reasonable varying scope. We have also found that the lead number of the ST segment f (alpha) singularity spectra for adults having coronary heart disease overstep the reasonable scope tends to increase over that of the ECG f(alpha) singularity spectra. These findings show that using the ST segments f(alpha) singularity spectra distribution of the synchronous 12-lead ECG is more effective than using the synchronous 12-lead ECG on the clinical analysis.
