LoadApneaWFDB: Loads apnea episodes for WFDB record

In RHRV: Heart Rate Variability Analysis of ECG Data

Loads apnea episodes for WFDB record

Description

Loads the information of apnea episodes and stores it into the data structure containing the beat positions and other related information

Usage

LoadApneaWFDB(HRVData, RecordName, RecordPath = ".", Tag = "APNEA", 
		verbose=NULL)

Arguments

HRVData	Data structure that stores the beats register and information related to it
RecordName	The WFDB file to be used
RecordPath	The path of the WFDB file
Tag	to include APNEA episodes
verbose	Deprecated argument maintained for compatibility, use SetVerbose() instead

Value

Returns HRVData, the structure that contains beat positions register and other related information and apnea episodes information

Note

An example including all the steps to download a record from Physionet and load its content and the Apnea annotations is included below:

dirorig <- "http://www.physionet.org/physiobank/database/apnea-ecg/"
files <- c("a01.hea", "a01.apn", "a01.qrs")
filesorig <- paste(dirorig, files, sep = "")
for (i in 1:length(files))
download.file(filesorig[i], files[i])
hrv.data <- CreateHRVData()
hrv.data <- LoadBeatWFDB(hrv.data, "a01")
hrv.data <- LoadApneaWFDB(hrv.data, "a01")
