| Summary: | Wavelet transformation, with its markedly high time resolution, is an optimal technique for the analysis of non-stationary waveform signals, such as physiological signals. Therefore, wavelet transformation is widely applied to electrocardiographic (ECG) signal processing. However, an appropriate application method for automated QT-interval measurement has yet to be established. In this study, we developed an ECG recognition technique using wavelet transformation and assessed its efficacy and functionality. The results revealed that the difference between the values obtained using our algorithm and the visually measured QT interval was as low as 4.8 ms. Our technique achieves precise automated QT-interval measurement, as well as Te recognition, that is difficult to accomplish even by visual examination under the electromyography noise environment.
