Summary

On this page we provide links to the algorithms used for pulse wave analysis in the PPG Diary Project. The algorithms have a broad range of uses. Firstly, they can be used to reproduce the work carried out in this project. Secondly, and perhaps more importantly, they can be used for further research: for further analysis of the PPG Diary data, and for other pulse wave analysis studies.

Pulse Wave Analysis Algorithms

The following Matlab ® algorithms were used for pulse wave analysis in this work:

  1. PulseAnalyse: A script for identifying fiducial points (such as systolic and diastolic peaks) on pulse waves, and taking feature measurements (such as the augmentation index).

Algorithms used to collate PPG Diary datasets

The following steps were undertaken to collate the PPG Diary datasets:

  1. TBC: ... .

The Matlab ® code used for these steps will be made available in due course here.
