description Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used on the clinical electrocardiogram workflows. Few electrocardiograms based on artificial intelligence algorithms have focused on detecting myocardial ischemia using long-term electrocardiogram data. A main reason for this is that interference signals generated from daily activities while wearing the Holter monitor lowered the ability of artificial intelligence to detect myocardial ischemia. In this study, an automatic system combining denoising and segmentation modules was developed to detect the deviation of the ST-segment and J point. We proposed a ECG Bidirectional Transformer network that applied in both denoising and segmentation tasks. The denoising model achieved RMSEde, SNRimp, and PRD values of 0.074, 10.006, and 16.327, respectively. The segmentation model achieved precision, sensitivity (recall), and F1-score of 96.00, 93.06, and 94.51%, respectively. The system’s ability to distinguish the depression and elevation of the ST-segment and J point was also verified by cardiologists as well. From our ECG dataset, 103 patients with ST-segment depression and 10 patients with ST-segment elevation were detected with positive predictive values of 80.6 and 60% respectively. Using Holter ECG and transformer-based deep neural networks, we can detect subtle ST-segment changes in noisy ECG signals. This system has the potential to improve the efficacy of daily medicine and to provide a broader population-level screening for asymptomatic myocardial ischemia.
