Efficient Real-Time Camera Based Estimation of Heart Rate and Its Variability [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Remote photo-plethysmography (rPPG) uses a remotely placed camera to estimating a person's heart rate (HR). Similar to how heart rate can provide useful information about a person's vital signs, insights about the underlying physio/psychological conditions can be obtained from heart rate variability (HRV).

Classification and Prediction of Heart Diseases using Machine Learning Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes
Heart disease is a serious worldwide health issue because it claims the lives of many people who might have been treated if the disease had been identified earlier. The leading cause of death in the world is cardiovascular disease, usually referred to as heart disease.

Amiodarone or an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator for congestive heart failure.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2005
BACKGROUND Sudden death from cardiac causes remains a leading cause of death among patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Treatment with amiodarone or an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) has been proposed to improve the prognosis in ...

Cardiac revascularization: state of the art and perspectives

open access: yesVascular Biology, 2019
Cardiac ischemia is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in a worldwide epidemic. The progressive understanding of the mechanisms driving new blood vessel formation has led to numerous attempts to revascularize the ischemic heart in animal models

Towards the Emulation of the Cardiac Conduction System for Pacemaker Testing [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
The heart is a vital organ that relies on the orchestrated propagation of electrical stimuli to coordinate each heart beat. Abnormalities in the heart's electrical behaviour can be managed with a cardiac pacemaker. Recently, the closed-loop testing of pacemakers with an emulation (real-time simulation) of the heart has been proposed.
