Nature paper: «Single-lead ECG based autonomic nervous system assessment for meditation monitoring»

Last Updated on January 20, 2024 by pg@petergamma.org

«We propose a single-lead ECG-based heart rate variability (HRV) analysis algorithm to quantify autonomic nervous system activity during meditation … Since the proposed approach requires only a single-lead ECG, we expect that it will be used in various fields, such as the internet of Medical Things (IoMT), digital healthcare, digital meditation, and digital therapeutics.»

We are happy to find out that a single-lead ECG device is sufficient to write a Nature paper about meditation.

We previously thought this would require at least a 3 channel gold standard ECG device:
