A detection method for detecting a QRS wave is disclosed. An electrocardiogram (ECG) signal is provided. The ECG signal is enhanced to generate a processed signal. A first crest of the processed signal is determined. Each crest following the first crest is defined as a second crest. The level of each second crest is higher than a first threshold value. The result of defining the second crest is utilized to determine whether the QRS wave has occurred and approached a first crest.
