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 ...

Analysis of left ventricular behaviour in diastole by means of finite element method [PDF]
The human left ventricle in diastole can be modelled as a passive structure with incremental internal pressure change being considered as the load. Recent developments in engineering stress analysis provide techniques for predicting the behaviour of ...

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.

Systolic ejection murmurs and the left ventricular outflow tract in boxer dogs [PDF]
Turbulence of various genesis in the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) causes systolic ejection murmurs. The prevalence of murmurs in adult boxer dogs is 50-80%, the majority of which are of low intensity.

ABSTRACT The integration of wavelet transformation and artificial intelligence techniques has demonstrated significant potential in healthcare applications. Wavelet analysis enables multi‐scale signal decomposition and feature extraction that, when combined with machine and deep learning approaches, enhance the accuracy and efficiency of medical data ...

Clinical Severity Score System in Dogs with Degenerative Mitral Valve Disease [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Several risk factors already have been determined for dogs with degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD). Risk factors often have been considered in isolation and have not always taken into account additional information provided by the ...

Automatic Identification of the Best Auscultation Area for the Estimation of the Time of Closure of Heart Valves through Multi-Source Phonocardiography [PDF]
In the latest years, multi-source phonocardiography (PCG) is gaining interest in relation to the home monitoring of cardiovascular diseases. An application of interest regards the monitoring of the time of closure of the four cardiac valves, which would ...
