Waveform Database Software Package (WFDB) for Python

Description

Physiological waveforms - such as electrocardiograms (ECG), electroencephalograms (EEG), electromyograms (EMG) - are generated during the course of routine care. These signals contain information that can be used to understand underlying conditions of health. Effective processing and analysis of physiological data requires specialized software. The waveform-database (WFDB) package for Python is a library of tools for reading, writing, and processing physiological signals and annotations, written in the Python programming language. Core components of the Python package are loosely based on the specifications of the original C-language WFDB software. We aim to implement as many of the core WFDB features as possible, with user-friendly APIs. Additional features are added over time.
