Labour Monitoring in Pregnant Women Using Phonocardiography, Electrocardiography and Electromyography Technique [PDF]
Continuous monitoring of fetal and maternal vital signs, particularly during labor, can be critical for the child and mother's health. We present a novel wearable electronic system that measures, in real-time, maternal heart rate using phonocardiography (PCG) and Electrocardiography (ECG). Uterine contractions using electromyography (EMG).

Cardiorespiratory system monitoring using a developed acoustic sensor
This Letter proposes a wireless acoustic sensor for monitoring heartbeat and respiration rate based on phonocardiogram (PCG). The developed sensor comprises a processor, a transceiver which operates at industrial, scientific and medical band and the ...

Fetal Gender Identification using Machine and Deep Learning Algorithms on Phonocardiogram Signals [PDF]
Phonocardiogram (PCG) signal analysis is a critical, widely-studied technology to noninvasively analyze the heart's mechanical activity. Through evaluating heart sounds, this technology has been chiefly leveraged as a preliminary solution to automatically diagnose Cardiovascular diseases among adults; however, prenatal tasks such as fetal gender ...

A Novel Approach to Simultaneous Phonocardiography and Electrocardiography During Auscultation
The combination of the phonocardiogram (PCG) and the electrocardiogram (ECG) allows the simultaneous evaluation of the heart’s mechanical and electrical conditions and could significantly improve the accuracy of an initial cardiovascular disease ...

Denoising of Fetal Phonocardiogram Signal by Wavelet Transformation [PDF]
Auscultation is still one of the most basic analytical tools used to determine the fetal heart’s functional state as well as the first fetal well-being measure. It is called fetal phonocardiography (fPCG) in its modern form.

Abstract Although an acute bout of peristaltic pulse external pneumatic compression (EPC) of the lower extremities can improve vascular function, its effect on arterial stiffness remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the acute effect of lower‐limb peristaltic pulse EPC on segmental arterial stiffness.
