Improving long QT syndrome diagnosis by a polynomial-based T-wave morphology characterization.

Heart rhythm
BACKGROUND: Diagnosing long QT syndrome (LQTS) remains challenging because of a considerable overlap in QT interval between patients with LQTS and healthy subjects. Characterizing T-wave morphology might improve LQTS diagnosis.

Development of models for predicting Torsade de Pointes cardiac arrhythmias using perceptron neural networks.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Blockage of some ion channels and in particular, the hERG (human Ether-a'-go-go-Related Gene) cardiac potassium channel delays cardiac repolarization and can induce arrhythmia. In some cases it leads to a potentially life-threatening arrh...

Non-invasive hypoglycemia monitoring system using extreme learning machine for Type 1 diabetes.

ISA transactions
Hypoglycemia is a very common in type 1 diabetic persons and can occur at any age. It is always threatening to the well-being of patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) since hypoglycemia leads to seizures or loss of consciousness and the possi...

Deep Learning-Augmented ECG Analysis for Screening and Genotype Prediction of Congenital Long QT Syndrome.

JAMA cardiology
IMPORTANCE: Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is associated with syncope, ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden death. Half of patients with LQTS have a normal or borderline-normal QT interval despite LQTS often being detected by QT prolongation on re...

QTNet: Deep Learning for Estimating QT Intervals Using a Single Lead ECG.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
QT prolongation often leads to fatal arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death. Antiarrhythmic drugs can increase the risk of QT prolongation and therefore require strict post-administration monitoring and dosage control. Measurement of the QT interval fro...

Deep learning analysis of electrocardiogram for risk prediction of drug-induced arrhythmias and diagnosis of long QT syndrome.

European heart journal
AIMS: Congenital long-QT syndromes (cLQTS) or drug-induced long-QT syndromes (diLQTS) can cause torsade de pointes (TdP), a life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia. The current strategy for the identification of drugs at the high risk of TdP relies o...

Paediatric/young versus adult patients with long QT syndrome.

Open heart
INTRODUCTION: Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a less prevalent cardiac ion channelopathy than Brugada syndrome in Asia. The present study compared the outcomes between paediatric/young and adult LQTS patients.

Use of Artificial Intelligence and Deep Neural Networks in Evaluation of Patients With Electrocardiographically Concealed Long QT Syndrome From the Surface 12-Lead Electrocardiogram.

JAMA cardiology
IMPORTANCE: Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is characterized by prolongation of the QT interval and is associated with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. However, although QT interval prolongation is the hallmark feature of LQTS, approximately 40% of...

Emerging Concepts and Applied Machine Learning Research in Patients with Drug-Induced Repolarization Disorders.

Studies in health technology and informatics
The paper presents a review of current research to develop predictive models for automated detection of drug-induced repolarization disorders and shows a feasibility study for developing machine learning tools trained on massive multimodal datasets o...
