Summary |
A non-invasive, wearable cardiac early warning system using mechanocardiography (MCG) spectrum for real-time detection of cardiovascular diseases. Physio-markers were identifiedalgorithms were developed to estimate LVEFrisk potential for cardiac arrest. The proposed system could be one of the break-through smart mobile devices for early detectionwarning of cardiac attacks at home. |
Scientific Breakthrough |
By combining mechanocardiogram (MCG)electrocardiogram (ECG) readings, the overall cardiac mechano-electrical behaviorscardiac timing events can be identified over time without electrocardiograph. Five physio-markers were proposed for estimation of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). This system is also paired with a smartphone APPs to provide risk potential warning signals. |
Industrial Applicability |
This wearable system can detect MCG/ECG simultaneously which overcomes all commercial ECG monitoringfunctional clothes in the market. Myo-cardiac physio-markers were proposed for left ventricular ejection fraction estimationrisk potential for heart failure problems. This system has enormous potentialcan be used as an innovative fast screening tool for heart failure symptoms. |
