Popis: In this work, an automatic detection algorithm for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is presented. Of particular interest is the algorithm’s ability to differentiate HCM subjects and healthy volunteers from a single lead ECG dataset. Suspected HCM subjects are identified by the primary clinical abnormality associated with HCM, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). In total, n=43 human subjects ECG datasets are investigated: n=21 healthy volunteers and n=22 left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) patients. Significant differences of p-value 0.01 and 0.04 were found for the respective ECG parameters, S-wave amplitude and ST-segment, when differentiating between the LVH patients and healthy human volunteers.
