In this paper, we propose an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal compression algorithm that is based on wavelet and a new modified set partitioning in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) algorithm. The proposed algorithm contains a preprocessing of the approximation subband before the coding step by mean removing. Three other modifications are also introduced to the SPIHT algorithm. The first one is a new initialization of the two lists of insignificant points (LIP) and insignificant sets (LIS), while the second is concerning the position of inserting new entries of type [Formula: see text] at the LIS, and in the last one, the redundancy in checking type [Formula: see text] entries in the original method was found and avoided. The new proposed coding algorithm is applied to ECG signal compression and the obtained numerical results on the MIT-BIH database show the efficient performances of the proposed SPIHT algorithm over the original method and other existing methods.
