Accuracy of methods for detection of atrial fibrillation in ECG signals
Veleba, Josef ; Janoušek, Oto (referee) ; Provazník, Ivo (advisor)
This thesis focuses on the issue of atrial fibrillation and the success of their detection in the ECG signal. It provides a description of electrical activity of the heart with the theoretical analysis of atrial fibrillation and methods for their detection. Additionally the work describes procedures for the implementation of three selected methods for the detection of atrial fibrillation in the MATLAB environment, presents the results of their tests on two atrial fibrillation signal databases and assesses the accuracy of each method.
Atrial fibrillation model
Ředina, Richard ; Smíšek, Radovan (referee) ; Ronzhina, Marina (advisor)
The aim of this master thesis is to create a 3D electroanatomical model of a heart atria, which would be able to perform atrial fibrillation. To control the model, the differential equations of the FitzHugh-Nagumo model were chosen. These equations describe the change of voltage on the cell membrane. The equations have established parameters. The modification of them leads to changes in the behavior of the model. The simulations were performed in the COMSOL Multiphysics environment. In the first step, the simulations were performed on 2D models. Simulations of healthy heart, atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation were created. The acquired knowledge served as a basis for the creation of a 3D model on which atrial fibrillation was simulated on the basis of ectopic activity and reentry mechanism. Convincing results were obtained in accordance with the used literature. The advantages of computational modeling are its availability, zero ethical burden and the ability to simulate even rarer arrhythmias. The disadvantage of the procedure is the need to compromise between accuracy and computational complexity of simulations.
Detection of atrial fibrillation in long-term ECG records
Imramovská, Klára ; Kozumplík, Jiří (referee) ; Maršánová, Lucie (advisor)
The thesis deals with problems of automatic detection of atrial fibrillation in long-term ECG records. The preface of the theoretical part describes the electrophysiology of the heart and the principle of atrial fibrillation. Furthermore, it introduces methods of automatic detection of atrial fibrillation. In the practical part a method which uses the symbolic dynamics and a calculation of Shannon entropy is implemented in the MATLAB software environment. The method is tested on signals from the MIT-BIH Atrial Fibrillation Database and the Long-Term AF Database. Lastly, the accuracy of the classification is compared with methods described in different papers.

Evaluation of cost effectiveness of NOAC (New Oral AntiCoagulants) in the indication of atrial fibrillation
Vothová, Petra ; Lešetický, Ondřej (advisor) ; Pažitný, Peter (referee)
In my thesis, in the theoretical part I deal with atrial fibrillation. I also deal with management of atrial fibrillation treatment. In the paper I explain the basic principles of pharmaco-economic evaluation in the Czech Republic, on the basis of which laws these pharmacological interventions are evaluated and who are in the Czech Republic. In the work I present cost breakdown and what are the most commonly used pharmaco-economic analyzes. In the practical part I will apply the theoretical knowledge. I have developed cost utility analysis based on available clinical evidence - randomized clinical trials ARISTOTLE (Granger, 2011), RE-LY (Connolly, 2009), ROCKET AF (Patel, 2011). I made an indirect comparison of the total benefits of NOACs. In the baseline scenario, I have calculated QALY to evaluate the benefits of effectiveness, safety and reduction of mortality. I have also dealt with a bleeding-related scenario. The ICER's greatest contribution to the public healthcare system has shown the active substance apixaban in both scenarios. I added the results and confirmed the clinical results of a recent, robust, retrospective study by Mayo Clinic (Yao, 2016).
