Photoplethysmography Revisited: From Contact to Noncontact, From Point to Imaging [PDF]
Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a noninvasive optical technique for detecting microvascular blood volume changes in tissues. Its ease of use, low cost and convenience make it an attractive area of research in the biomedical and clinical communities. Nevertheless, its single spot monitoring and the need to apply a PPG sensor directly to the skin limit its

Portable Radar for Noncontact Heart Rate Monitoring and Estrus Detection in Dairy Cows
This study introduces a portable radar system for real‐time monitoring of respiratory and heart rates in dairy cows. It uses millimeter‐wave Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar to perform noncontact physiological sensing, reducing behavioral disturbance. The radar system's design prioritizes portability, cost‐effectiveness, and robustness,

Abstract The need for comprehensive equine welfare assessments has become particularly evident amid ongoing debates about the social licence to operate in equestrian sports. During exercise, multiple physiological systems, principally the cardiovascular, respiratory, muscular, thermoregulatory, endocrine, and locomotory systems, undergo complex ...

Peripheral arterial disease: diagnostic challenges and how photoplethysmography may help [PDF]
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects approximately 20% of patients aged ≥60 years.1 A GP with an average list size of 1800 patients can expect to have 50–60 patients with PAD.

Cerebral and Peripheral Hemodynamics Across Wakefulness and NREM Sleep
ABSTRACT Wake/sleep‐related changes in cerebral hemodynamic oscillations are well established, but similar changes in peripheral hemodynamics remain largely understudied. Moreover, how the relationship between cerebral and peripheral hemodynamics varies across sleep–wake states is not well understood, despite evidence that these oscillations in the low‐

Nurses’ and patients’ experiences and preferences of the Ankle-Brachial Pressure Index and Multi-site Photoplethysmography for the diagnosis of peripheral arterial disease: A qualitative study [PDF]
Peripheral arterial disease is a global health problem, affecting around 20% of people aged over 60 years. Whilst ankle-brachial pressure index (ABPI) is regularly used for diagnosis, it has a number of limitations, which have presented a need for ...

Cerebral haemodynamic responses to inspiratory muscle work
Abstract Fatiguing inspiratory work has been shown to evoke a sympathetically mediated reflex that has systemic cardiovascular consequences, including increases in heart rate and blood pressure and a decrease in resting limb vascular conductance. Moreover, the response to this reflex appears to be attenuated in females compared with males.

Reliable analysis of remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) signals depends on identifying physiologically plausible pulses. Traditional approaches rely on clustering self-similar pulses, which can discard valid variability.
