Beat annotation files for 54 long-term ECG recordings of subjects in normal sinus rhythm.

Long-term ECG recordings of 18 subjects referred to the Arrhythmia Laboratory at Boston's Beth Israel Hospital.

Seventy ECG signals with expert-labelled apnea annotations and machine-generated QRS annotations.

Fetal cardiac arrhythmias are defined as any irregular fetal cardiac rhythm or regular rhythm at a rate outside the reference range of 100 to 200 beat per minute (bpm). Arrhythmias are discovered in about 1% of fetuses with about 10% of these being …

Functional metrics of autonomic control of heart rate, including baroreflex sensitivity, have been shown to be strongly associated with cardiovascular risk. A decrease in baroreflex sensitivity with aging is hypothesized to represent a contributing …

The 2017 PhysioNet/CinC Challenge aims to encourage the development of algorithms to classify, from a single short ECG lead recording (between 30 s and 60 s in length), whether the recording shows normal sinus rhythm, atrial fibrillation (AF), an al…

Acute Brain injury (ABI) is a devastating event requiring intensive acute treatment and post-injury rehabilitation, both delivered for indeterminate periods of time. For severe ABIs, acute treatment is aimed at stabilizing the patient to prevent sec…

The recordings in this collection were originally selected for inclusion in the MIT-BIH Normal Sinus Rhythm Database, but were excluded after study revealed low-grade arrhythmias.

In its June 2008 issue, the editors of Chaos announced a new feature, "Controversial Topics in Nonlinear Dynamics". The first controversial topic to be aired is "Is the Normal Heart Rate Chaotic?". This project provides data to explore this question.
