Monitoring blood potassium concentration in hemodialysis patients by quantifying T-wave morphology dynamics

Abstract We investigated the ability of time-warping-based ECG-derived markers of T-wave morphology changes in time ( $$d_{w}$$ d w ) and amplitude ( $$d_a$$ d a ), as well as their non-linear components ( $${d_w^{{\mathrm{NL}}}}$$ d w NL and $${d_a^{\mathrm{NL}}}$$ d a NL ), and the heart rate corr...
