The Neurokit and University of New South Wales QRS detectors performed best in this study. These performed sufficiently well on high-quality telehealth ECGs, but not on low-quality ECGs. This demonstrates the need to handle low-quality ECGs appropriately to ensure only ECGs which can be accurately analysed are used for clinical decision making.
