Associate Professor Mathias Baumert is the Health Technology research theme leader at the School of Electrical Electronic Engineering at the University of Adelaide. He is an expert in biomedical signal processing with focus on dynamic electrocardiography and sleep research. Mathias is currently involved in studies investigating the beat-to-beat variability of ventricular repolarization, its physiological underpinnings and clinical research applications. In addition, he explores signal processing approaches for characterizing sleep related phenomena to derive diagnostic markers for sleep disordered breathing.
Current Research Projects
I am supervising research students in the following research areas:
Advanced Diagnostic Features of Sleep Disordered Breathing
- Background: Sleep disordered breathing is a common disorder of sleep that has negative effects on heart and brain and is diagnosed based on a sleep study of various physiological signals. Subtle changes in heart and brain function may not be detectable using clinical standard diagnostic criteria.
- Aim: Identification of changes in heart and brain activity during sleep using digital signal processing techniques.
- Partners: Women's and Children's Hospital Adelaide, Adelaide Institue of Sleep Health
- Facilities: Online repositories of overnight polysomnograms; experimental studies are possible at clinical partner laboratories
Brain Computer Interfaces for Stroke Rehabilitation
- Background: Stroke affects 1 in 6 people and is characterised by brain lesion that often leaves patients partly paralysed. Currently available rehabilitation techniques to regain limb function are often ineffective.
- Aim: Development and validation of a real-time BCI system to aid rehabilitation of motor function in patients who suffered brain stroke.
- Partners: Robinson Institute Adelaide
- Facilities: Brain computer interface workstation, including 64 channel EEG
- Resources: Scope TV on BCI
Sensing of Electrical Instability in the Heart
- Background: Electrical instability in the heart can trigger sudden cardiac death. Implantable defibrillators allow resetting (‘shocking’) the heart, but identification of patients who are at risk of sudden cardiac death is difficult and the limited sensing capability of devices can result in unnecessary electrical shocks.
- Aim: Development of algorithm for advanced sensing of cardiac instability using electrocardiogram.
- Partners: South Austalian Health and Medical Research Institute, Royal Adelaide Hospital, Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute
- Facilities: Various ECG equipment, data repositories; experimental studies are possible at clinical partner laboratories
- Resources: QT interval variability; Two-dimensional Signal Warping
