Abstract

AbstractIn recent years, wearable electrocardiograms have risen in popularity as a solution for personal monitoring of heart activity. However, this technology has limitations in diagnostic capability and structural function monitoring. Meanwhile, auscultation of the heart remains a fundamental tool for physicians in diagnosis and monitoring of heart disease largely unaddressed in a convenient wearable format. The present work outlines a promising system currently under investigation, allowing user-initiated 10-second chest-sound recordings to be transmitted over Bluetooth-Low-Energy, with an innovative package design providing inherent noise reduction and a high signal-to-noise ratio. The device has been tested on healthy individuals, and system response has been validated against calibrated electrocardiogram recording equipment to analyze signal capture fidelity.Abstract Figure
