Two-Dimensional Warping for One-Dimensional Signals—Conceptual Framework and Application to ECG Processing
Key result
Patients with myocardial infarction showed significantly increased beat-to-beat QT interval variability compared to normal subjects (5.94 ms vs 2.36 ms) using the novel 2DSW method.
Why the study?
Does two-dimensional signal warping (2DSW) accurately extract beat-to-beat variability in QT intervals from ECG recordings in normal subjects and MI patients?
Population
Normal subjects and patients with myocardial infarction (MI)
Comparison
Two-dimensional signal warping applied to ECG… vs Normal subjects (for the clinical comparison)

Cite This Study
Schmidt et al. (2014) studied Myocardial infarction. Myocardial infarction vs. Normal subjects was evaluated on QT interval variability (QTV). Patients with myocardial infarction showed significantly increased beat-to-beat QT interval variability compared to normal subjects (5.94 ms vs 2.36 ms) using the novel 2DSW method.
