Rheumatic Heart Disease Screening Based on Phonocardiogram [PDF]
Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is one of the most common causes of cardiovascular complications in developing countries. It is a heart valve disease that typically affects children. Impaired heart valves stop functioning properly, resulting in a turbulent

The utility of phonocardiograms in real-time remote cardiac auscultation using an internet-connected electronic stethoscope: Open-label randomized controlled pilot trial [PDF]
Background We have shown classical cardiac auscultation was superior to remote auscultation. We developed a phonocardiogram system to visualize sounds in remote auscultation.

Phonocardiogram Signal Based Multi-Class Cardiac Diagnostic Decision Support System
A Phonocardiogram (PCG) signal represents murmurs and sounds signals made by vibrations caused for the period of a cardiac cycle. Acoustic wave generated through the beat of the cardiac cycle propagates through the chest wall.

Robust Denoising of Phonocardiogram Signals Using Time-Frequency Analysis and U-Nets
Cardiovascular diseases are the cause of many deaths worldwide every day. Automated cardiac auscultation is a promising diagnosis method; however, one of its main disadvantages is that it is prone to receiving too much noise during sound recording, which

Rivero-Carvallo Sign in Bioprosthetic Tricuspid Valve Stenosis [PDF]
In a case with bioprosthetic tricuspid stenosis, simultaneous phonocardiogram and Doppler recordings revealed that the louder diastolic rumble in inspiration (Rivero-Carvallo sign) is related to increased tricuspid gradient caused by less prominent ...
