vitabel

vitabel is a Python framework for loading, visualizing, aligning, and annotating high-resolution physiological time series in Jupyter notebooks. It supports retrospective critical-care and perioperative research workflows involving recordings from defibrillators, anaesthesia systems, and patient monitors.

Its central Vitals container combines channels, labels, and metadata. Users can align recordings from multiple sources, add derived labels, and curate data for signal processing, statistics, and machine learning. Supported workflows include loading defibrillator recordings and VitalDB data, computing ventilation-related signals, and interactively annotating events.

The project provides documentation, worked examples, and an interactive Binder demonstration.
