Data Quality: what to look for
ECG:
No clipping, clean
Minimal drift in the baseline of the ECG (fairly flat)
Clear QRS complex and T- wave waveform showing characteristics of lead 1 ECG tracing
Auscultation Sounds:
Heart sounds clearly heard using noise-cancelling headphones with a consistent volume
Periodic waveform aligning with heartbeat in ECG
No sporadic spikes or flat periods in the waveform
Thoracic Impedance:
Values between 10 and 250 (Ohms)
Value is not steadily increasing (drifting) over time (indicating the device may be peeling off)
Clear oscillation caused by breathing
Figure 18 a-d. a) Good data b) Clipping, bad electrode connection, noisy acoustic signal c) No sensor connection d) Steadily
increasing thoracic impedance indicating sensors are peeling off.
