Assessing the accuracy of Seismofit® as an estimate of preoperative maximal oxygen consumption in patients with hepato-pancreato-biliary, colorectal, and gastro-oesophageal cancer [PDF]
Background: Peak oxygen uptake (VO2 peak) measured during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is commonly used to objectively assess fitness and inform risk stratification. Preoperative CPET is not always universally available.

Cardiac monitoring of dogs via smartphone mechanocardiography: a feasibility study [PDF]
Background In the context of monitoring dogs, usually, accelerometers have been used to measure the dog’s movement activity. Here, we study another application of the accelerometers (and gyroscopes)—seismocardiography (SCG) and gyrocardiography (GCG)—to ...

Identifying Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Using Rest and Exercise Seismocardiography [PDF]
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause of death globally. Patients with suspected CAD are usually assessed by exercise electrocardiography (ECG). Subsequent tests, such as coronary angiography and coronary computed tomography angiography (

Non-contact heart vibration measurement using computer vision-based seismocardiography [PDF]
Seismocardiography (SCG) is the noninvasive measurement of local vibrations of the chest wall produced by the mechanical activity of the heart and has shown promise in providing clinical information for certain cardiovascular diseases including heart ...

Challenges in using seismocardiography for blood pressure monitoring [PDF]
The capability of continuously and non-invasive blood pressure (BP) monitoring is valuable in the clinical setting. Pulse transit time (PTT) has shown the promise to track changes in the arterial BP. This study examines the efficacy of seismocardiogram (SCG) and photoplethysmogram (PPG) combination for timing the proximal and distal pulse respectively ...

Cardiac Multi-Frequency Vibration Signal Sensor Module and Feature Extraction Method Based on Vibration Modeling [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases pose a long-term risk to human health. This study focuses on the rich-spectrum mechanical vibrations generated during cardiac activity. By combining Fourier series theory, we propose a multi-frequency vibration model for the heart,

Seismocardiography Pig Hypovolemia Dataset for Signal Quality Indexing and Validated Cardiac Timings [PDF]
Seismocardiography (SCG), a non-invasive method for capturing cardio-mechanical signals, is often susceptible to noise and motion artifacts. Current approaches primarily use automated algorithms and machine learning techniques for signal quality indexing
