This question lies here for a really long time and I already managed to get the material I needed.
Basically there are three issues in ECG signal analysis.
1. Noise reduction using correlation with predicted noise and adaptive filtering.
2. Detection of medical problems, this is surely done by analyzing wave shape for each heart beat and feeding the results to a decision logic systems or neural networks.
3. Compression, this is done both in the time domain and by wavelet transform
Using spectral analysis for heart rate measures is a huge overkill; all you have to do is simply detect the massive pick (QRS complex in the ECG language).
