Millions of people around the world are affected by arrhythmias, which are abnormal activities of the functioning of the heart. Most arrhythmias are harmful to the heart and can suddenly become life-threatening. The electrocardiogram (ECG) is an impo...

BACKGROUND: Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) improves heart failure outcomes but has significant nonresponse rates, highlighting limitations in ECG selection criteria: QRS duration (QRSd) ≥150 ms and subjective labeling of left bundle branch b...
OBJECTIVE: To develop an automatic algorithm to detect strict left bundle branch block (LBBB) on electrocardiograms (ECG) and propose a procedure to test the consistency of neural network detections.

BACKGROUND: Abnormal ventricular depolarization, evident as a broad QRS complex on an ECG, is traditionally categorized into left bundle-branch block (LBBB) and right bundle-branch block or nonspecific intraventricular conduction delay. This categori...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) has revolutionized the treatment of severe aortic stenosis. Although its clinical efficacy is well established, the development of new-onset left bundle branch block (LBBB) following...

While pre-trained neural networks, e.g., for diagnosis from electrocardiograms (ECGs), are already available and show remarkable performance, their lack of transparency prevents translation to clinical practice. Recently, an explainable artificial in...
Premature ventricular contraction (PVC) is one of the most serious arrhythmias. Without early diagnosis and proper treatment, PVC can result in significant complications. In this paper, a novel feature extraction method based on a sparse auto-encoder...
