Fully automated template matching method for ECG-free heartbeat detection in cardiomechanical signals of healthy and pathological subjects
This study developed a new method to detect heartbeats from chest vibrations without needing ECG, showing high accuracy even for patients with heart diseases. It could enable long-term heart monitoring using wearable devices.
Monitoring of respiration and cardiorespiratory interactions from multichannel seismocardiography signals
This study shows that chest vibrations measured by accelerometers can accurately track breathing and heart-lung interactions, regardless of sensor placement. It introduces a new method to analyze these signals for better health monitoring.
A Forcecardiography dataset with simultaneous SCG, Heart Sounds, ECG, and Respiratory signals
This study provides a groundbreaking dataset combining heart and breathing signals, enabling researchers to improve non-invasive heart and lung monitoring technologies.
Accuracy of the Instantaneous Breathing and Heart Rates Estimated by Smartphone Inertial Units
This study shows that smartphones can accurately measure heart and breathing rates using built-in sensors, offering a simple and affordable way to monitor health without extra devices.
ECG-Free Heartbeat Detection in Seismocardiography Signals via Template Matching
This study shows that heartbeats can be accurately detected from chest vibrations without needing an ECG, using a simple and efficient algorithm. This could enable wearable devices to monitor heart health more easily.
A Comparison of Heart Pulsations Provided by Forcecardiography and Double Integration of Seismocardiogram
This study shows that heart vibrations measured by accelerometers can mimic a novel sensor's output, but improvements are needed for accurate heart rate tracking during breathing and apnea.
