ms = Milliseconds, λpos , λpre = the weighting coefficient in Equations 1 and 2, Δ0 = the desired time interval between an ICP peak and its lower limit to the R wave of ECG, Δ1 = the desired time interval between an ICP peak and its upper limit to the R wave of ECG, α0 = initial value of the upper limit for the time interval between ICP peak and the corresponding ECG R wave, β0 = initial value of the lower limit for the time interval between ICP peak and the corresponding ECG R wave.
