Kraaijeveld, Michael (author)Atrial Fibrillation or AF is the most common heart rhythm anomaly affecting millions of people. This work explores the possibilities of reinterpreting speech processing techniques for use in atrial fibrillation detection. An existing method of modelling single heartbeat, single lead ECG signals by means of an ARMA model's amplitude response as a...master thesis 2024

Oza, Jimeet (author)Atrial fibrillation is a cardiac arrhythmia resulting from abnormal electrical conduction and impulse formation within the atria. To address this condition, a minimally invasive procedure called cardiac ablation is performed. Real-time visual feedback during this procedure plays a critical role in determining its success.<br/><br/>Photoacoustic...master thesis 2023

Suresan, Anjali (author)Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a cardiac arrhythmia that occurs due to the initiation of electrical impulses in the heart in an uncoordinated manner, giving rise to a disorganized and rapid heartbeat. The progression of AF over time can lead to complications such as stroke and heart failure. Catheter ablation is an established treatment protocol...master thesis 2023

Licurici, Teodor (author)Estimating the transmembrane currents travelling through the epicardium and local activation times based on atrial epicardial electrograms can greatly help in the study of cardiac arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation. This work focuses on the accurate estimation of the aforementioned signals and features. To do this, two least squares-based...master thesis 2023

Rodewijk, Koen (author)Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most commonly occurring arrhythmia in clinical practice and can have a significant impact on the current and future wellbeing of the patient. By placing an unipolar sensor array directly on the epicardium during an open-heart surgery to measure the electrical activity of the atrium, more insight about this disease...master thesis 2023

Wenink, Kristel (author)Introduction: Currently, there is no method available for intra-operative evaluation of the completeness (transmurality and continuity) of surgical ablation lesions. This study aimed to investigate the changes in electrogram characteristics and activation patterns caused by different (non)transmural and (dis)continuous ablation lesions in ex...master thesis 2023

Hunter, William (author)Atrial fibrillation is a common cardiovascular disease, affecting the regular beating of the heart through chaotic contraction of the heart's upper chambers. On its own, the condition—increasingly prevalent among the elderly—is not life threatening, but it leads to an increased risk of stroke and heart failure. As of yet, there is no consensus...master thesis 2022

Kos, Cees (author)The heart is one of our vital organs. It functions by periodically contracting in a rhythmic way. Sometimes, this rhythmic behaviour is affected by abnormalities in the tissue. These conditions are referred to as cardiac arrhythmias. One kind is of specific interest, called atrial fibrillation (AF). To further study AF, methods have been...master thesis 2022

Moree, Tijs (author)The most common serious heart rhythm disease is atrial fibrillation. It is not fatal on its own but does increase the risk of heart failures and strokes. There is little understanding about the mechanisms behind the disease, so more insight is desired. Using an array of electrodes, measurements are being performed of the electrical atrial...master thesis 2022

Roest, Jeroen (author)Introduction: Potentials measured at the epicardial surface contain information regarding the conductive properties of the atrial tissue. The current lack of morphological categorization during atrial fibrillation (AF) provokes the usage of unsupervised learning methods to evaluate time series electrograms across the atrial surface. Analysis of...master thesis 2021

van Twist, Eris (author)Background: Unipolar electrograms (U-EGMs) contain additional information about interatrial activation and conduction in their morphology, which may aid towards improved diagnosis and staging of atrial fibrillation (AF).Objective: The primary objective is to investigate regional differences in electrogram area (EA) during SR and AF and to design...master thesis 2021

van Es, Tim (author), Helfferich, Florens (author)Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia occurring in around 0.5% of the world population. AF is characterized by the rapid and irregular beating of the atrial chambers of the heart, which can cause lead to strokes and other heart-failures. To prevent these consequences the early detection of AF is paramount. Using...bachelor thesis 2021

Kohabir, Amar (author), Smit, Alex (author)When symptoms of atrial fibrillation (AF), a common cardiac arrhythmia, are experienced, a Holter monitor or event recorder is used for official diagnosis. Apart from the fact that these devices are experienced as inconvenient, AF can already manifest damage in a pre-symptomatic phase. This thesis is aimed at developing a method for recording...bachelor thesis 2021

Yin, Yuchen (author)This thesis focuses on classifying AF and Normal rhythm ECG recordings. AF is a common arrhythmia occurring in millions of people every year, which could lead to blood clots, stroke or even heart failure. When AF is occurring, the P waves are often absent and RR intervals are often irregular. <br/><br/>This thesis proposes a new Poincaré plot...master thesis 2020

Wesselius, Fons (author)Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common age-related, progressive tachyarrhythmia in the USA and in European countries. AF is associated with an increased risk of stroke, heart failure, impaired cognitive function, and increased mortality. An obstacle for optimal diagnosis and treatment is the relatively unknown (electro-...master thesis 2020

Kölling, Bart (author)A common cardiac arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation, which is becoming more widespread worldwide. Currently there is some understanding about the mechanisms behind atrial fibrillation, however more insight into the conduction of the atrial tissue is desired. Therefore, invasive mapping studies have been performed where an array of electrodes is...master thesis 2019

Wang, Yuxiang (author)This is a 5-month master graduation project in collaboration with Praxa Sense to design the next generation Atrial Fibrillation diagnosis device. A long-term (more than one month) continuous, off-hospital diagnosis device is designed with the focus on user experience and diagnosis accuracy. There are several phases in this project including...master thesis 2019

Das, Aurojyoti (author)Biosignals such as electoencephalogram (EEG), electrocorticogram (ECoG), atrial electrogram (AEG) etc. are being recorded from multiple channels simultaneously to improve the spatial resolution of the signals. Conventional multichannel synchronous Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) are used to convert the analog continuous time signals into...master thesis 2019

Grandia, Leander (author)Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a common type of arrhythmia, characterized by rapid and irregular contraction of the atria. Irregular contraction of the atria is caused by erroneous electrical activation, originating from the tissue around the Pulmonary Veins (PV) in the Left Atrium (LA). Catheter-based treatment of AF includes ablation of the...master thesis 2019
