US Patent 10194821 Medical device having automated ECG feature extraction

A medical device having automated electrocardiogram (ECG) feature extraction is disclosed. The medical device includes input circuitry configured to receive an ECG signal. Processing circuitry coupled to the input circuitry is configured to identify at least one fiducial point of heartbeat signature of the ECG signal. The processing circuitry is further configured to perform substantially simultaneously both a discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and a curve length transform (CLT) to identify the at least one fiducial point.
