Abstract

In order to achieve auxiliary timing of ventricular assisting device to automatically track the ECG signals, we designed a set of ECG acquisition circuit in our study for the first time. Then we carried out ECG acquisition, smoothing filter and QRS detection on the LabVIEW. With the QRS signal as a benchmark, the control system immediately triggered ventricular assisting device to trigger the heart to contract for ejection for about 300 ms, and then to assist to make it relax. The practical effects of the experiment proved that ECG acquisition circuit had the feature of strong anti-interference, and control system had no false QRS detection and no false triggering of assist device. This achieves the auxiliary timing which could automatically track the ECG signal.
