A Python library for parsing, processing, and visualizing multi-format ECG files.
pip install ecgdatakit
Parse HL7 aECG, Philips Sierra, GE MUSE, SCP-ECG, DICOM, EDF, WFDB, MFER, and more into one unified data structure.
Butterworth filters, R-peak detection (Pan-Tompkins & Shannon energy), HRV analysis, FFT, signal quality, lead derivation, ECG cleaning, and DeepFADE neural-net denoising.
Standard 12-lead grids, R-peak annotations, HRV dashboards, spectrograms, and full ECG reports. Static or interactive.

# Parse any ECG file (auto-detect format)
record = FileParser().parse("ecg_file.xml")
# Filter and detect R-peaks
lead = record.leads[1] # Lead II
filtered = diagnostic_filter(lead)
peaks = detect_r_peaks(filtered)
print(f"Heart rate: {heart_rate(filtered, peaks):.0f} bpm")
# Visualize
fig = plot_12lead(record)
fig.savefig("ecg_report.png", dpi=150)# Core (parsing only)
pip install .
# With signal processing (scipy)
