Description

Heart rate variability signal analysis method based on extreme value energy decomposition method
Technical Field
The invention relates to electrocardiogram signal analysis, in particular to a heart rate variability signal analysis method based on an extreme value energy decomposition method.
Background
Physiological signals are generated by the interaction of multiple systems of a living body, and the time and the intensity of the action of different systems are different, so that the physiological signals have complexity in time and space. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) refers to the measurement of the temporal variation between successive cardiac cycles, and specifically, the variation in the difference between the successively occurring normal P-P intervals. However, since P-waves are less pronounced than R-waves or the P-wave tips are sometimes blunt, studies on heart rate variability signals are typically replaced with R-R Interval Signals (RRIs) equal to P-P intervals. Research shows that HRV can be used as noninvasive detection index of activity of the vegetative nervous system, and has important significance in the aspect of judging the prognosis of certain cardiovascular diseases.
Long-term modulated rhythms (<1Hz)) of the heart are studied in the prior art using the heart rate variability signal (HRV signal) as the subject of analysis. Numerous studies have shown that human HRV signals have long-term correlations and nonlinear kinetic complexity, and that age and disease lead to reduced kinetic complexity. The Heart Rate Variability (HRV) signal is usually studied by RR interval (RRI) signal, i.e. the time interval between successive R waves of RRI signal.
The most common method of studying energy changes in HRV signals is power spectral analysis (PSD). The PSD converts the power of the HRV signal into a function of frequency by fourier transform, studies the power level of different frequency domain ranges, and generally the HRV spectrum is divided into several frequency bands, such as High Frequency (HF), Low Frequency (LF), and Very Low Frequency (VLF). The LF/HF ratio has important clinical value. Heart disease causes changes in the HRV power spectrum, such as heart failure and myocardial infarction resulting in increased normalized HF, decreased LF and VLF. However, PSD is not a data-driven based method and is coarser for segmentation of the frequency domain, resulting in loss of detail and not flexible enough for segmentation.
Therefore, it is desired to solve the above problems.

The Extreme Energy Decomposition (EED) method adopted by the invention is a method based on the concept of an extreme mode function, wherein the extreme mode function is a signal with single frequency which simultaneously meets the following two conditions:
(a) the number of extreme points (including maxima and minima) and the number of zero-crossing points must be equal or differ by at most one throughout the data sequence;
(b) at any moment, the average value of an upper envelope line formed by the local maximum value points and a lower envelope line formed by the local minimum value points is zero, namely the local upper envelope line and the local lower envelope line are locally symmetrical relative to a time axis;
the above two conditions, condition (a) is similar to the requirement of the gaussian normal stationary process for the traditional narrow band, and condition (b) ensures that the instantaneous frequency calculated by the extreme value modal function has physical significance.
The standard selection of the extreme value modal function decomposition termination is moderate, and the conditions are too strict, so that the last extreme value modal function components lose significance; conditions are too loose, which can result in loss of useful components; in practical application, the number of layers of the extremum modal function components to be decomposed can be set according to requirements, and when the number of layers of decomposition is met, the calculation is terminated.

The present invention further analyzes the mean center frequencies of different level components of HRV signals of healthy and CHF patients to obtain the results of Table 1.
TABLE 1 mean center frequencies for different component levels of HRV signals in healthy and CHF patients
It can be concluded that the HRV center frequency gradually decreases as the component level increases.
A typical way of partitioning the frequency domain by a conventional Power Spectral Density (PSD) method is: HF (0.15-0.4 Hz), LF (0.04-0.15 Hz), and VLF (0.0033-0.04 Hz). The EED method of the invention has the frequency higher than HF for the component level 1; level 2 is in the frequency range of HF; levels 3, 4 are in the LF range; levels 5-7 are in the frequency range of VLF; level 8 is below VLF. In addition, it can be seen that CHF patients at the same level have a slightly higher frequency than healthy people, reflecting the effect of heart disease on the rhythm of HRV fluctuations, which are faster in the same level.
The invention separates HRV signals of two groups into extreme value modal function component Ci(t), calculating to obtain a normalized energy distribution vector, and drawing an EED graph, as shown in FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is a graph showing EED analysis results of RR interval signals of healthy and CHF patients, wherein the data length is 10000 points, the curve represents the mean value, and the error bars represent the standard deviation. The symbol above the curve represents the two groups of population energies Ttest p<0.01. In the hierarchy selection, hierarchies 1 and above 7 are removed, including margins. Level 1 is susceptible to noise, resulting in large fluctuations in energy,causes the standard deviation of the result to be too large, and the frequency can be as high as more than a few kHz, so that the clear physiological significance is not provided; levels higher than 7 reflect the long-term rhythm of the signal, are very susceptible to the external environment, and have low frequency and unknown physiological significance. In FIG. 7, the normalized energy values for CHF patients are significantly higher at the component low levels (levels 2, 3) than for healthy people, and at the component high levels (levels)>5) In contrast, the opposite occurs, healthy people have higher energy than CHF patients; the energy of healthy people is stable in levels 2-5, when the level is more than 5, the energy slowly rises, and CHF patients quickly fall in levels 2-4 and then tend to be stable; at 4 levels (2, 3, 6, 7), there is a significant difference in energy between the two (p)<0.01). For comparison, the present invention adds the result of the EED analysis of the replacement data (CHF recovery) generated by the method of randomizing the original data as shown in fig. 7, the energy distribution of the replacement data monotonically decreasing with increasing scale, being higher on the small time scale and lower on the long time scale than in CHF patients.
To evaluate the energy distribution difference of the EED curve at the low level and the high level decomposition, the energy difference value EDV of each population is calculated, and the high EDV value represents the higher component low level energy distribution and the lower component high level energy distribution of the RRI signal. EDV values were calculated for healthy people, CHF patients, and their surrogate data, as shown in table 2.
TABLE 2 EDV values for healthy and CHF patients
Represents healthy humans and CHF patients with T-test results p < 0.0001.
And represents the substitute data and the original data T test result p < 0.0001.
As can be seen from table 2, healthy and CHF patients have significant differences in EDV values, which are much higher than those of healthy people. An EDV value of a healthy person less than 0 indicates a higher energy at the high level of the component, indicating a higher intensity of modulation for the high level component. The EDV values of both populations were significantly different from their surrogate data EDV values, with the EDV of human HRV being significantly less than the random sequence.
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) refers to the measurement of the temporal variation between successive cardiac cycles, and specifically, the variation in the difference between the successively occurring normal P-P intervals. However, since P-waves are less pronounced than R-waves or the P-wave tips are sometimes blunt, studies on heart rate variability signals are typically replaced with R-R Interval Signals (RRIs) equal to P-P intervals. Research shows that HRV can be used as noninvasive detection index of activity of the vegetative nervous system, and has important significance in the aspect of judging the prognosis of certain cardiovascular diseases.
In clinical and practical applications, the present invention proposes that 512 (n-8) short-time cardiac signals with consecutive RR intervals can be used for the above described EED analysis, which is effective and has a certain data margin; the above studies show that EED decomposition has good results for 7 component levels (N-7), and the minimum required data size can be N-2n+1=27+1=256。
