Abstract
A method of obtaining an electrocardiograph (ECG) of a patient located in a turbulent electromagnetic environment. The method includes recovering an ECG signal from a patient. The signal, including added noise, is recovered near the cardiac region as the differential signal resulting from signals delivered by two electrodes forming part of a first measurement loop. The signal further consists of simultaneously recovering from the patient a second measurement signal incorporating at least the noise, as a differential signal resulting from the signals delivered by two electrodes forming part of a second measurement loop distinct from the first measurement loop. Then, the second measurement signal is added or subtracted from the first noisy ECG signal, in real time. The second measurement signal is as a function of the polarity of the noise in the second signal relative to the noise in the first noisy ECG signal. The resulting signal is processed, converted, transmitted and displayed in real time representing the ECG essentially devoid of noise.
