Abstract
This paper describes biosignal interpretation methods in
an application to support a CAD (Coronary Artery Disease)
patient during rehabilitation. The methods use
physiological signals from a wearable device (embedded in
a shirt) to guide the patient through safe and beneficial
exercise. The paper describes the different design
considerations of the processing chain: signal quality
verification; on-line analysis and feedback; recovery
analysis and exercise summary analysis. The system
components have been validated: differences in heart rate
between the device and the reference were small, ECG
signal quality estimation algorithm had high sensitivity
and specificity, and the on-line feedback algorithms
perform well enough for use during exercise in practice.
A study regarding the clinical usefulness of the overall
system is carried in 2012 in the context of the EU
project Heartcycle
