Abstract

ECG is basically the graphical representation of the electrical activity of cardiac muscles during contraction and release stages. It helps in determination of the cardiac arrhythmias in a well manner. Due to this early detection, arrhythmias can be done properly. In other words, we can say that the bio-potentials generated by the cardiac muscles results in an electrical signal called Electro-cardiogram (ECG). Feature extraction of ECG plays a vital role in manual as well as automatic analysis of ECG for the use in specially designed instruments like ECG monitors, Holter tape recorders and scanners, ambulatory ECG recorders and analyzers. In this paper, the study of pattern recognition of ECG is done. The ECG signal generated waveform gives almost all information about activity of the heart. The feature extraction of ECG is by Wavelet transform. This paper also includes artificial neural network as a classifier for identifying the abnormalities of heart disease.
