THE PREVALENCE OF ORTHOSTATIC HYPOTENSION AMONG HOSPITALIZED OLDER ADULTS AT RISK FOR FALLING
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) may cause falls in hospitalized older adults. OH is a sustained drop of at least 20 mm Hg for systolic blood pressure or at least 10 mm Hg for diastolic blood pressure when changing position from supine to sitting, sitting to

Harmonic MUSIC Method for mmWave Radar-based Vital Sign Estimation [PDF]
This paper investigates the application of millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar for the estimation of human vital signs. Aiming to obtain more accurate frequency estimation for periodic signals of respiration and heartbeat, we propose the harmonic MUSIC (HMUSIC) algorithm to consider harmonic components for frequency estimation of vital sign signals.

Certain peculiarities of the functioning of the cardiovascular system in bedrest conditions during horizontal and antiorthostatic body positions [PDF]
The adequate modeling of physiological reactions inherent to the state of weightlessness has become a matter of particular urgency in space medicine. This modeling is necessary for studying the phenomenology and degree of disorders, prognostication of ...

Antenna Selection for Enhancing Privacy in Radar-Based Vital Sign Monitoring Systems [PDF]
Radar-based vital sign monitoring (VSM) systems have become valuable for non-contact health monitoring by detecting physiological activities, such as respiration and heartbeat, remotely. However, the conventional phased array used in VSM is vulnerable to privacy breaches, as an eavesdropper can extract sensitive vital sign information by analyzing the ...
