Abstract
BACKGROUND: Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis computed on R-R interval series of ECG records with heavy burden of ectopic beats or non-sinus rhythm can significantly distort HRV parameters and hence clinically ineligible for HRV analysis. Yet, existing algorithmic methods of HRV analysis do not check such eligibility and require manual identification of eligible window (portion of ECG record) to ensure reliability.
