Question
Design and implement a MATLAB program to determine the heart rate of an ECG recording of unknown properties.
Background
Today, thousands of lives will be saved thanks to a machine’s ability to monitor heart activity of critically-ill patients in hospitals around the world. The heart’s electrical activity can be monitored from the body’s surface using an electrocardiogram (ECG), one of the most ubiquitous tools in modern medicine. An example ECG is shown below in Figure 1, which by now should be familiar to you. The repeating pattern of the ECG is depicted by three repeating features which together correspond to a single contraction of the heart. These are the P-wave, the QRS-wave, and the T-wave. Each wave corresponds to specific electrical activity within the heart. The coordinated timing of these three distinct features ensures that the heart maintains healthy rhythmicity to adequately supply the body with oxygen.

Write a MATLAB program to analyze a patient’s ECG signal and provide warnings if the heart rate becomes either dangerously low or dangerously high.
To do this, your code must satisfy these requirements:
1) Upload a provided ECG recording into MATLAB
2) Condition the raw input signal by removing any DC offset
3) Determine the heart rate of the recording
4) Report a warning to the console if the heart rate becomes dangerously high or dangerously low (greater than 125 bpm or less than 40 bpm)
5) Plot the ECG with QRS markers
6) Include at least one user-defined function
Summary
This question belongs to MATLAB software and discusses about to write a MATLAB program to analyze a patient’s ECG signal and provide warnings if the heart rate becomes either dangerously low or dangerously high.

I was badly stuck with an argumentative term paper writing assignment when I started searching for help on the net. I never thought that I will get any sort of specialized help for the Australian universities and when HwA promised to deliver that, I thought why not? Then I chatted with the expert and she helped me out by writing and excellent term paper which helped me get great grades.
I thank TheReliableTutor.com for helping me to complete my biochemistry assignment on time. I was given assignment on DNA polymerases which is very interesting if you know basic concepts of it. The experts taught me right from the basics and helped me to get good grades in my assignment. Thanks for the support guys..!!!
While I took occasional help for my different assignments from TheReliableTutors, I kept on wondering whether they could actually help with my MBA dissertation paper. When I first approached them, they sounded confident and they already knew what is needed to be done. That was very relieving as even before my professor told me what to be done next, the dissertation expert knew what to do. I have got an “A†in my master’s dissertation report and now I have assigned them by PhD thesis paper also.
I had taken the help from HwA to write the assignment on consumer protection laws in the UK. I needed to include a recent case study in the assignment essay and the commercial law assignment expert at HwA knew the best example to incorporate. I got an A in the assignment and that helped boost my grade for the entire term.
I really never thought that I would get Kiwi essay writing experts online. I just searched randomly and landed on their page. There was a phone number available and I thought why not? Then I chatted with the expert and I got to know that she was also from the same university as I am in. It was kind of cool as she knew my syllabus and helped me out by writing and excellent essays which helped me get great grades.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
