Why the study?
Wearable and ambulatory ECG monitoring remains susceptible to noise sources that obscure diagnostically important characteristics, which classical filters frequently fail to address adequately.
A novel dual-filter adaptive denoising pipeline improves ECG signal quality by increasing SNR and reducing RMSE in simulations, potentially enhancing continuous cardiac monitoring.
May aid noisy ECG monitoring; leaves open human validation before clinical use.
For continuous cardiac assessment, electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring in wearable and ambulatory settings is becoming more and more important.However, it is still susceptible to a number of noise sources, including baseline drift, motion artifacts, electromagnetic interference (EMI), and muscle activity (EMG).P-waves, the QRS complex, and ST segments are examples of diagnostically important characteristics that may be obscured by these interferences.The non-adaptive, phasedistorting, and morphology-blurring characteristics of classical filters frequently lead to their failure.To address this, we suggest a dual-filter adaptive denoising pipeline that combines a locally adaptive Wiener filter with a modified Savitzky-Golay filter.Using statistical variance estimations and spectral flatness criteria, our method dynamically adjusts to spectral features and signal shape, preserving important cardiac fingerprints while reducing noise.In-depth MATLAB simulations show increases in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 6-8 dB and a 47.5% decrease in root mean square error (RMSE), while preserving over 90% QRS fidelity across 14 different noise circumstances.Theoretical advances in signal processing and real-time cardiac diagnostics are connected in this work.
