Cardiovascular instrumentation for spaceflight [PDF]
The observation mechanisms dealing with pressure, flow, morphology, temperature, etc. are discussed. The approach taken in the performance of this study was to (1) review ground and space-flight data on cardiovascular function, including earlier related ...

Assessing and grading congestion in acute heart failure: a scientific statement from the acute heart failure committee of the heart failure association of the European society of cardiology and endorsed by the European society of intensive care medicine [PDF]
Patients with acute heart failure (AHF) require urgent in-hospital treatment for relief of symptoms. The main reason for hospitalization is congestion, rather than low cardiac output. Although congestion is associated with a poor prognosis, many patients

User Authentication and Vital Signs Extraction from Low-Frame-Rate and Monochrome No-contact Fingerprint Captures [PDF]
We present our work on leveraging low-frame-rate monochrome (blue light) videos of fingertips, captured with an off-the-shelf fingerprint capture device, to extract vital signs and identify users. These videos utilize photoplethysmography (PPG), commonly used to measure vital signs like heart rate. While prior research predominantly utilizes high-frame-

RealTime Health Monitoring Using 5G Networks: A Deep Learning-Based Architecture for Remote Patient Care [PDF]
Remote patient monitoring is crucial in modern healthcare, but current systems struggle with real-time analysis and prediction of vital signs. This paper presents a novel architecture combining deep learning with 5G network capabilities to enable real-time vital sign monitoring and prediction.

Using Concurrent Cardiovascular Information to Augment Survival Time Data for Evaluating Orthostatic Tilt Test Performance [PDF]
Head-up tilt (HUT) tests often are used in research to measure orthostatic intolerance (OI) (inability to appropriately control blood pressure while upright) in clinical populations and otherwise healthy individuals after interventions. Post-space flight

Risk of Orthostatic Intolerance During Re-Exposure to Gravity [PDF]
Post-spaceflight orthostatic intolerance remains a significant concern to NASA. In Space Shuttle missions, astronauts wore anti-gravity suits and liquid cooling garments to protect against orthostatic intolerance during re-entry and landing, but in ...
