RESUMO

The cardiopathies are currently, according the Ministério da Saúde, the second biggest cause of mortality among the Brazilians, behind only the brain vascular diseases. The motivation for the work here presented is the identification and classification of cardiopathies registered in Electrocardiogram exams, ECG, such as premature contractions, branches blocks, tachycardia and other rhythms disturbance. Due its easy application and low cost, the ECG is one of the resources more commonly used by researchers and health professionals in the assessment of cardiac conditions. The computational application developed in this study relies in the application of Wavelets Transforms for the digital signal processing of ECG, in extracting the morphologic characteristics, dynamics and spectral of the cycles of the signal and in the submission of these characteristics to two Support Vector Machines (SVM). The output of these two SVM s are combined as input to a Bayesian Network for the identification and classification of the cardiopathies. The characteristic of each cycle, morphologic and spectral, has it dimensionality reduced by Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The spectral characteristics are extracted by the extractions of the Wavelets Transforms coefficients of the signal, whilst the dynamics characteristics are defined by the interval between the global maxima of each cycle. For development, testings and validations of the application we utilize the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia database, made available by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). At the end of this work we demonstrate that the application is able to recognize and classify 8 types of heart beats in ECG records, with an medium accuracy above 95,0%.
