**A Benchmark for Evaluating Medical Large Language Models in ECG**

</div>

---

## 📌 Overview

**ECG-Expert-QA** is a benchmark designed to evaluate the ECG interpretation and clinical reasoning capabilities of medical large language models.

Unlike general medical QA datasets, ECG-Expert-QA focuses on expert-level electrocardiogram understanding. It covers ECG signal interpretation, clinical decision reasoning, multi-turn question answering, and risk-aware evaluation, providing a more specialized testbed for medical LLMs in cardiovascular scenarios.

## ✨ Key Features

- 🫀 **ECG-specific benchmark** — purpose-built for evaluating medical large language models on electrocardiogram tasks.
- 🧠 **Expert-level QA design** — involving ECG interpretation and clinical reasoning grounded in cardiology expertise.
- 💬 **Multi-turn question answering** — tests contextual medical understanding across extended dialogues.
- 🔍 **Cross-modal clinical reasoning** — combines ECG-related information with textual clinical descriptions.
- ⚠️ **Risk-aware evaluation** — assesses robustness, safety, and clinical reliability of model responses.
- 📊 **Reproducible evaluation setting** — based on public ECG resources and clearly documented pipelines.

---

## 🚀 Usage

### 1. Prepare Datasets

We use public ECG datasets in this benchmark. The dataset used in our experiments can be downloaded from:

- [MIMIC-IV-ECG](https://physionet.org/content/mimic-iv-ecg/1.0/)

The preprocessing pipeline—including ECG waveform extraction, signal processing, and conversion to WFDB format—follows our previous work:

- [ECG-Chat](https://github.com/YubaoZhao/ECG-Chat)

Please refer to the **ECG-Chat** repository for detailed preprocessing instructions.

### 2. Evaluate Medical LLMs

You can refer to the example implementation in:

```text
code.py
```

This file provides a basic reference for running evaluations on ECG-Expert-QA.

> **Note:** The complete evaluation code and testing scripts will be released soon.

## 🧪 Benchmark Scope

ECG-Expert-QA is designed to evaluate several key abilities of medical large language models:

| Capability | Description |
|---|---|
| **ECG Interpretation** | Understanding ECG-related findings and diagnostic clues |
| **Clinical Reasoning** | Inferring possible cardiovascular conditions from ECG evidence |
| **Multi-turn QA** | Maintaining context across multiple medical questions |
| **Cross-modal Reasoning** | Connecting ECG signal information with textual clinical descriptions |
| **Safety Awareness** | Identifying uncertainty, risk, and potentially unsafe responses |
| **Robustness** | Evaluating stability across different ECG-related question types |
