Chinese Cardiovascular Disease Database (CCDD) and Its Management Tool

Standard Electrocardiogram (ECG) database is prepared for testing the performance of automatic detection and classification algorithms. At present, there are three mainstream standard databases used by computer-aided ECG diagnosis researchers: MIT-BIH arrhythmia database, CSE multi-lead database and AHA database. By the progress of ECG in both equipment and diagnosis theory, fatal deficiency was found in these databases and a new one is needed for further studies. So Chinese Cardiovascular Disease Database (CCDD or CCD database), which contains 12-Lead ECG data and detailed features with diagnosis result is proposed. It is distinguished not only by improving the raw ECG data’s technical parameters, but also introduces some morphology features. Investigation shows these features are utilized by experienced cardiologists effectively. CCDD is used in our group as well as aiming for other and others’ projects in the future.
