Minimization of Motion Artifact During Exercise in Impedance Cardiography

The origins of the motion artifact resulting from exercise in impedance cardiography wore explained and the ensemble average technique was applied to reduce the motion artifact enabling the measurement of cardiac output during exercise. Algorithm for ensemble average was developed and applied to the actual impedance signals. It was found that the minimum number of sampling was 20, and sampling frequency was 500Hz. Using the ensemble average technique it was possible to measure cardiac output continuously during the treadmill exercise. Therefore it is hoped that this study may contribute in the area of exercise physiology and sport medicine.
