Non-exercise estimation of peak oxygen uptake in patients with ischaemic heart disease and heart failure using seismocardiography. [PDF]

Eur Heart J Digit Health
Aims Knowledge of cardiorespiratory fitness (i.e. VO2peak) is important for determining prognosis and prescribing exercise for patients with heart disease undergoing cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programmes.

Forcecardiography: A Novel Technique to Measure Heart Mechanical Vibrations onto the Chest Wall [PDF]

Sensors, 2020
This paper presents forcecardiography (FCG), a novel technique to measure local, cardiac-induced vibrations onto the chest wall. Since the 19th century, several techniques have been proposed to detect the mechanical vibrations caused by cardiovascular ...

Monitoring of respiration and cardiorespiratory interactions from multichannel seismocardiography signals. [PDF]

Phys Eng Sci Med
Seismocardiography (SCG) uses accelerometers to record cardiac-induced accelerations of the chest wall. Cardiorespiratory interactions cause changes in amplitude and morphology of the SCG signals.

Identifying Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Using Rest and Exercise Seismocardiography [PDF]

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
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 (

Validity and reliability of seismocardiography for the estimation of cardiorespiratory fitness. [PDF]

Cardiovasc Digit Health J, 2023
BACKGROUND: Low cardiorespiratory fitness (ie, peak oxygen consumption [V.O2peak]) is associated with cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality and is recognized as an important clinical tool in the assessment of patients.

Cardiac monitoring of dogs via smartphone mechanocardiography: a feasibility study [PDF]

BioMedical Engineering OnLine, 2019
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 ...

Generation of Seismocardiography Heartbeats Using a Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Network With Feature Control

IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology
Goal: Seismocardiography (SCG) offers critical insights into cardiac performance, but its analysis often faces challenges due to the limited availability of data. This study aims to generate synthetic SCG heartbeats which can augment existing datasets to

ECG-Free Heartbeat Detection in Seismocardiography Signals via Template Matching

Sensors, 2023
Cardiac monitoring can be performed by means of an accelerometer attached to a subject’s chest, which produces the Seismocardiography (SCG) signal.

ECG-Free Heartbeat Detection in Seismocardiography and Gyrocardiography Signals Provides Acceptable Heart Rate Variability Indices in Healthy and Pathological Subjects

Sensors, 2023
Cardio-mechanical monitoring techniques, such as Seismocardiography (SCG) and Gyrocardiography (GCG), have received an ever-growing interest in recent years as potential alternatives to Electrocardiography (ECG) for heart rate monitoring.
