Novel phonocardiography system for heartbeat detection from various locations
The paper presents evaluation of the proposed phonocardiography (PCG) measurement system designed primarily for heartbeat detection to estimate heart rate (HR). Typically, HR estimation is performed using electrocardiography (ECG) or pulse wave as one of

Construction and Validation of an Automatic Segmentation Method for Respiratory Sound Time Labels
A digital visualization method segments respiratory sounds into inhale/exhale phases, enabling robust analysis and comparison across diseases. It provides objective auscultation evidence and visual breath sound displays. ABSTRACT Background In the field of respiratory system diseases, the utilization of respiratory sounds in auscultation plays a ...

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.
