Improvements in Remote Cardiopulmonary Measurement Using a Five Band Digital Camera [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Remote measurement of the blood volume pulse via photoplethysmography (PPG) using digital cameras and ambient light has great potential for healthcare and affective computing. However, traditional RGB cameras have limited frequency resolution. We present

Spatiotemporal processing in photoplethysmography for skin microcirculatory perfusion imaging

open access: yesBiomedical Optics Express, 2022
Technological advances in the real-time visualization of cutaneous microcirculation aim to realize benefits including high-resolution imaging, suppressed noise, and robust temporal coherence. Photoplethysmography (PPG), a noninvasive technique that measures single or multiple points of relative blood volume changes in blood vessels under the skin ...

Hybrid Optical Unobtrusive Blood Pressure Measurements

open access: yesSensors, 2017
Blood pressure (BP) is critical in diagnosing certain cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension. Some previous studies have proved that BP can be estimated by pulse transit time (PTT) calculated by a pair of photoplethysmography (PPG) signals at two ...

Noncontact imaging photoplethysmography to effectively access pulse rate variability [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Optics, 2012
Noncontact imaging photoplethysmography (PPG) can provide physiological assessment at various anatomical locations with no discomfort to the patient. However, most previous imaging PPG (iPPG) systems have been limited by a low sample frequency, which restricts their use clinically, for instance, in the assessment of pulse rate variability (PRV). In the

High-Reliability Non-Contact Photoplethysmography Imaging for Newborn Care by a Generative Artificial Intelligence

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2023
Long-term wiring on a newborn patient could be a disguise scene for parents. Unobtrusive and reliable monitoring without wiring can be a euphoric alternative for newborns and parents in obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN) incubation rooms.

In systemic sclerosis skin perfusion of hands is reduced and may predict the occurrence of new digital ulcers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients are at high risk for the development of ischemic digital ulcers (DUs). The aim of this study was to assess in SSc patients a correlation between skin perfusion evaluated by LDPI and DUs and to evaluate the prognostic ...

Heart Rate Extraction from Novel Neck Photoplethysmography Signals. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This paper demonstrates for the first time how heart rate (HR) can be extracted from novel neck photoplethysmography (PPG). A novel algorithm is presented, which when tested in neck PPG signals recorded from 9 subjects at different respiratory rates ...

Heart rate monitoring in ultra-high-field MRI using frequency information obtained from video signals of the human skin compared to electrocardiography and pulse oximetry

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2015
Videos of the human skin contain subtle color variations associated with the blood volume pulse. This remote photoplethysmography signal can be used for heart rate monitoring and represents an alternative to signals obtained from contact-based hardware ...
