Abstract

A system and method of monitoring electrocardiogram (ECG) signals and detecting ischemic conditions. In particular, high-frequency components and low-frequency components are extracted from the monitored ECG signal. The high-frequency components are analyzed to detect reduced amplitude zones (RAZs), while the low-frequency components are utilized to detect premature ventricular contraction (PVC) beats. Potentially ischemic conditions are identified based on both RAZs and PVC beats detected.
