Automatic detection of P wave during the second-degree AV block is the main condition for automatic detection of this pathology. This work deals with developing of the algorithm for P wave detection. The algorithm is appropriate for ECG signals with AV block as well as signals with other rhythm types (it does not produce false positive P wave detections). For P wave detection, the phasor transform is applied and several innovative rules are created. These rules are based on knowledge of heart manifestation during both physiological and pathological heart function. The proposed algorithm consists of four parts – filtration, QRS complex detection, application of rules, and P wave detection. The accuracy of the P wave detection algorithm is 99.74 % for signals with AV block, and 99.82 % for signals without any pathologies.
