The Pan & Tompkins algorithm demonstrated the best performance for QRS complex detection, though other algorithms with lesser computational complexity showed comparable performance in some cases.
For real-time QRS detection on wearable devices, lower-complexity algorithms can provide comparable performance to the standard Pan & Tompkins algorithm.

May support lower-complexity QRS algorithms for wearables; leaves open prospective validation before clinical use.
Silvestri et al. (2018) studied ECG signals (non-pathological and pathological). Pan & Tompkins algorithm vs. Other low-complexity algorithms was evaluated on QRS complex detection performance. The Pan & Tompkins algorithm demonstrated the best performance for QRS complex detection, though other algorithms with lesser computational complexity showed comparable performance in some cases.
