Abstract :
The purpose of this project is the development of a new technique for the Discrimination between Ventricular Fibrillation, Ventricular Tachycardia and Non-Shockable Cardiac Rhythms based on the treatment of ECG signal as a bi-dimensional image and its comparison with two conventional detection techniques. The overall performance of this method found to be fully comparative with the conventional ones
