A life-threatening arrhythmia detection method based on pulse rate variability analysis and decision tree.

ABSTRACT: Extreme bradycardia (EB), extreme tachycardia (ET), ventricular tachycardia (VT), and ventricular flutter (VF) are the four types of life-threatening arrhythmias, which are symptoms of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, in this study, a method of life-threatening arrhythmia recognition is proposed based on pulse rate variability (PRV). First, noise and interference are wiped out from the arterial blood pressure (ABP), and the PRV signal is extracted. Then, 19 features are extracted from the PRV signal, and 15 features with highly important and significant variation were selected by random forest (RF). Finally, the back-propagation neural network (BPNN), extreme learning machine (ELM), and decision tree (DT) are used to build, train, and test classifiers to detect life-threatening arrhythm
