For manual rhythm strips or ECG monitoring, the lower frequency response should therefore be 0.05 Hz if artifactual ST elevation is to be avoided.įigure-2: Illustrative figure provided by David Richley. If the ECG is recorded in real-time - the filter can only be applied unidirectionally, and the ST distortion cannot be corrected. However, it can only do this when a fully automatic ECG is recorded in its memory. This is because the machine applies a high-pass filter when it acquires the signal in order to reduce the low frequency artifact - but because this distorts the ST segments, it then re-applies the filter in the opposite direction to reverse the distortion. Bandwidth: 0.05 to 40 Hz, sampling frequency: 250 Hz / 500 Hz.

Nowadays, in a digital machine, the recommended low er limit is 0.67 Hz - because this will help to suppress the low frequency artifact of baseline wander ( such as that caused by perspiration or deep breathing) whilst not distorting the ST segment. They also recommend serial ECG comparisons including the posterior heart wall.

In the old analogue days, to preserve the lower frequency components of the ECG waveform ( eg, ST segment) - the recommended lower frequency response of ECG machines was 0.05 Hz. What causes artifactual ST elevation is the use of a digital high-pass filter in a real time ECG display, as when recording a manual rhythm strip or when monitoring.
