  1. Nonlinear Analysis of Surface ECG Atrial Flutter and Atrial Fibrillation in Man Tsair Kao Institute of Biomedical Engineering National Yang-Ming University

  2. Atrial Arrhythmias Typical atrial flutter (T-AFL) • Single macro-reentrant wave in atrium • Regular conduction to ventricle (2:1, 3:1,6:1) • 240-350 bpm Atypical atrial flutter (A-AFL) • Irregular conduction to ventricle • Often degenerate into atrial fibrillation • 340-430 bpm Atrial fibrillation (Af) • Multiple wavelets in atrium • 300-600 bpm

  3. Atrial Signals  Intra-atrial electrogram  Epi-cardial electrogram  Surface ECG atrial activity Atrial flutter– single reentrant circuit (clockwise and counterclockwise) Atrial fibrillation–simultaneously multi- reentrant circuits

  4. Linear Analysis Time domain • Af/AFL: Ratio between variance and mean of f-wave duration • Normal/ Af: regularity of RR interval • Normal/ arrhythmias: ‘P-wave existing’ and ‘ventricular regularity test’ • Frequency domain • Af/ Sinus and AFL: Magnitude squared coherence • Normal/AFL/Af: ‘dominant frequency’ and spectral

  6. Noncontact and Contact Unipolar Electrograms Electrophysiological Characteristics and Catheter Ablation in Patients with Paroxysmal Right Atrial Fibrillation. Circulation, 112: 1692-1700, 2005.

  7. Frequency Domain Analysis  The frequency spectra were plotted and analyzed from 2 to 30 Hz to include only the physiological range of practical interest.  The spectra were normalized by the maximum power of the 64 spectra. For each spectrum, the normalized largest peak, which exceeded 0.2, was identified as the dominant frequency (DF).  Harmonic index (HI), representing the organization of the AF during the 6.82-second time segment.  HI = ( the power of the DF and its harmonic peaks over a 2-Hz window) / (the total power) (from 2 to 30 Hz )

  10. Animal Experiments • Nine canines weighted between 10 and 15 kg. • The 120 electrodes are arranged into 15×8 matrixes. • The recorded signals included:* sinus rhythm* during AF* AF after injection antiarrhythmic drug * before restoration of normal sinus rhythm Open chest sinus rhythm induce AF by electrical stimulation inject Antiarrhythmic drugs restore sinus rhythm

  12. Isochronal Map in Sinus Rhythm The earliest depolarization area around SA node (dotted square) is denoted as dominant area (DA). Twenty-four electrodes (about 9×15 cm2) are enclosed by the dotted square.

  16. Independent Component Analysis (ICA) • ICA is a technique for revealing hidden factors that underlie sets of random signals. • Blind Source Separation (BSS): • Solving the “cocktail party problem”

  17. Mutual Information unknown x s A W Independent Component Analysis • s Unknown • Mixing matrix A Unknown • To estimate A and s using only the observed random vector x • Compute W = A-1 • Obtain ICs from s’ = Wx
