Abstract :
The electrocardiogram is widely used for diagnosis of heart diseases. Several methods have been developed for ECG enhancement. This work presents a new ECG enhancement method for QRS complex detection. The moving average and cubic splines are successfully applied to detect the QRS complex through experiments on the MIT-BIH databases. The results show that the proposed method achieves good detection performances.
