LBBB is a cardiovascular disease that affects the heart’s electrical conduction system and may indicate the presence of underlying diseases. Early detection of LBBB is crucial for assessing the patient’s prognosis and taking preventive measures. To this end, we acquired datasets of ECGs from patients with LBBB, healthy patients, and patients with atrial fibrillation; we also acquired ECG signals from a volunteer suffering from LBBB through BITalino (r)evolution Plugged kit platform. We performed signal preprocessing, feature extraction, and classification using Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Random Forest (RF) algorithms. Accuracy of classification of 82.54% and 89.14% are obtained for SVM and RF, respectively. F1 score of 97.99% and 97.12%\r\nare obtain for prediction of LBBB with SVM and RF, respectively. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of these algorithms in\r\naccurately detecting LBBB from ECG signals. This approach could improve the detection and treatment of cardiovascular diseases related to LBBB.","url_abs":"https://www.overleaf.com/2994281724vrshsxbkjrzq","url_pdf":"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fwCLKUfw7h-r3AYXezo5vJPW4QpL9ASF/view?usp=sharing","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"addressing-detection-of-left-bundle-branch","repo_url":"https://github.com/MateoPortal/IntroSenales","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"prognosis","task_name":"Prognosis"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"svm","method_name":"SVM"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
