Deep CNN-based detection of cardiac rhythm disorders using PPG signals from wearable devices.

ABSTRACT: Cardiac rhythm disorders can manifest in various ways, such as the heart rate being too fast (tachycardia) or too slow (bradycardia), irregular heartbeats (like atrial fibrillation-AF, ventricular fibrillation-VF), or the initiation of heartbeats in different areas from the norm (extrasystole). Arrhythmias can disrupt the balanced circulation, leading to serious complications like heart attacks, strokes, and sudden death. Medical devices like electrocardiography (ECG) and Holter monitors are commonly used for diagnosing and monitoring cardiac rhythm disorders. However, in recent years, the development of wearable devices has played a significant role in the detection and diagnosis of rhythm disorders through the use of photoplethysmography (PPG) signals. Wearable devices enable patients to
