TLDR
Pilot data from a blind evaluation of compressed ECG's by cardiologists suggest that the clinically useful information present in original ECG signals is preserved by 8:1 compression, and in most cases 16:1 compressed ECGs are clinically useful.Abstract:
Wavelets and wavelet packets have recently emerged as powerful tools for signal compression. Wavelet and wavelet packet-based compression algorithms based on embedded zerotree wavelet (EZW) coding are developed for electrocardiogram (ECG) signals, and eight different wavelets are evaluated for their ability to compress Holter ECG data. Pilot data from a blind evaluation of compressed ECG's by cardiologists suggest that the clinically useful information present in original ECG signals is preserved by 8:1 compression, and in most cases 16:1 compressed ECG's are clinically useful.read more

ApproxCS: Near-Sensor Approximate Compressed Sensing for IoT-Healthcare Systems
TL;DR: This paper proposes to leverage the approximate computing in digital Compressed Sensing, through low-power approximate adders (LPAA) in an accurate Bernoulli sensing-based CS acquisition (BCS), and demonstrates that approximations can indeed be safely employed in IoT healthcare without affecting the detection of critical events in the biomedical signals.

A theory for multiresolution signal decomposition: the wavelet representation
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the difference of information between the approximation of a signal at the resolutions 2/sup j+1/ and 2 /sup j/ (where j is an integer) can be extracted by decomposing this signal on a wavelet orthonormal basis of L/sup 2/(R/sup n/), the vector space of measurable, square-integrable n-dimensional functions.
