Effect of averaging of high-resolution cardiac signals in medical diagnostics using Simson's method

Simson's method employed in cardiological diagnostics detects the presence or absence of late ventricular potentials to indicate cardiac pathologies. It has been a long time since the development of Simson's method, but it is still used in clinics and is often mentioned in studies related to high-resolution ECGs and averaging of ECG signals. An optimal algorithm of high-resolution ECG averaging was chosen and implemented in this study. Efficiency of Simson's method was assessed on the cardiac signal recorded using a modern hardware and software complex. The result of the study showed no relationship between late ventricular potentials and localized micropotentials on the ST interval in individual cardiac pulses
