Abstract
Presents the Long Term ST Database, a collection of eighty 24-hour two
and three lead ECG records from ambulatory subjects with transient ST
segment abnormalities. The database provides a comprehensive standard
research resource for quantitatively assessing the performance of
automated detectors of transient ischemia, and for supporting basic
research into the mechanisms and dynamics of transient
ischemia. Records of the database contain annotated significant
transient ischemic ST episodes, non-ischemic ST episodes caused by
heart rate related changes, non-ischemic ST events due to axis shifts
or QRS conduction changes, and individual QRS and rhythm annotations,
all made by human experts
