Abstract: This works proposes an electrocardiogram based approach for left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH) classification. LVH classification is based on features extracted from the ECG signal, where the main features are the ones related to the QRS wave amplitude and duration. Instead of working on only one LVH criteria, we employed a score which explores the complementarity of the best criteria through a fusion strategy. The best criteria are the ones which discriminate normal and LVH ECGs according to the t-test. We carried out experiments in a database with a group of fifty men, where a half has LVH. The gold standard to detect LVH was the left ventricle mass index measured using echocardiography. Our approach achieved a sensitivity of 69.7%, outperforming all LVH criteria.
