Wrist ballistocardiography and invasively recorded blood pressure in healthy volunteers during reclining bike exercise

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Objective: Ballistocardiogram (BCG) features are of interest in wearable cardiovascular monitoring of cardiac performance. We assess feasibility of wrist acceleration BCG during exercise for estimating pulse transit time (PTT), enabling broader ...

Psychosocial stressors in psychosomatic cardiology: A narrative review

open access: yesHeart and Mind, 2022
The definition of a psychosocial stressor and reactions to it is discussed in relation to individual and environmental factors. The relation of this model to psychophysiological stress reactions and regeneration, as well as its significance for ...

Non-invasive cardiac kinetic energy distribution: a new marker of heart failure with impaired ejection fraction (KINO-HF)

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundHeart failure (HF) remains a major cause of mortality, morbidity, and poor quality of life. 44% of HF patients present impaired left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Kinocardiography (KCG) technology combines ballistocardiography (BCG) and

Ballistocardiography [PDF]

open access: yesAcademic Medicine, 1953
In this study, the normal ballistocardiogram is interrelated with various cardiac events in order to establish the origin of its component waves. It is apparent that the ballistic F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M and N waves bear a definite relationship to known cardiac events, although in some cases the temporal positioning of the complexes is shifted by ...

Optimization and evaluation of a mobile IMU-based ballistocardiography system

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2023
In recent decades ballistocardiography (BCG) has regained popularity as a way to measure the mechanical activ- ity of the heart. In this paper we present and evaluate a new iteration of our mobile BCG measurement system.

Monitoring of Cardiorespiratory Parameters during Sleep Using a Special Holder for the Accelerometer Sensor

open access: yesSensors, 2023
Sleep is extremely important for physical and mental health. Although polysomnography is an established approach in sleep analysis, it is quite intrusive and expensive.

Performance Evaluation of a Smart Bed Technology against Polysomnography

open access: yesSensors, 2022
The Sleep Number smart bed uses embedded ballistocardiography, together with network connectivity, signal processing, and machine learning, to detect heart rate (HR), breathing rate (BR), and sleep vs. wake states. This study evaluated the performance of

Neurotechnological solutions for post‐traumatic stress disorder: A perspective review and concept proposal

open access: yesHealthcare Technology Letters, Volume 10, Issue 6, Page 133-138, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety condition caused by exposure to severe trauma. It is characterised by nightmares, flashbacks, hyper‐vigilance and avoidance behaviour. These all lead to impaired functioning reducing quality of life. PTSD affects 2–5% of the population globally.

Vision-Based Measurement of Heart Rate from Ballistocardiographic Head Movements Using Unsupervised Clustering

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Heart rate has been measured comfortably using a camera without the skin-contact by the development of vision-based measurement. Despite the potential of the vision-based measurement, it has still presented limited ability due to the noise of ...
