Recent Advances in Seismocardiography [PDF]
Vibration, 2019 Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of death worldwide. New diagnostic tools are needed to provide early detection and intervention to reduce mortality and increase both the duration and quality of life for patients with heart disease. Seismocardiography (SCG) is a technique for noninvasive evaluation of cardiac activity. However, the complexity of

Detecting Preload Changes Using Seismocardiography
Computing in Cardiology Conference (CinC), 2023 Seismocardiography (SCG) is a non-invasive tool that utilizes the chest wall vibrations from the beating heart to measure cardiac movements through a highly sensitive accelerometer. SCG offers continuous measurement of cardiac function that could be utilized for monitoring, diagnostic assessments, and prognostic health checks. The aim of this study was
