On the classification of ballistocardiograms.

Bibl Cardiol

Published: December 1976

An improvement of Brown's classification is described... The new classification reflects the amplitude and time-relation changes of the Bcg. A method for estimating the mean values of Bcg elements, based on the principle of calculation of all corresponding values during the complete 2-3 respiratory cycles is described

Purpose: Wearable or non-contact, non-intrusive devices present a practical alternative to traditional polysomnography (PSG) for daily assessment of sleep quality. Physiological signals have been known to be nonlinear and nonstationary as the body adapts to states of rest or activity. By integrating more sophisticated nonlinear methodologies, the accuracy of sleep stage identification using such devices can be improved.

This paper describes a signal quality classification method for arm ballistocardiogram (BCG), which has the potential for non-invasive and continuous blood pressure measurement. An advantage of the BCG signal for wearable devices is that it can easily be measured using accelerometers. However, the BCG signal is also susceptible to noise caused by motion artifacts.

The growing global prevalence of heart failure (HF) necessitates innovative methods for early diagnosis and classification of myocardial dysfunction. In recent decades, non-invasive sensor-based technologies have significantly advanced cardiac care. These technologies ease research, aid in early detection, confirm hemodynamic parameters, and support clinical decision-making for assessing myocardial performance.

Background And Objectives: Prediction of patient deterioration is essential in medical care, and its automation may reduce the risk of patient death. The precise monitoring of a patient's medical state requires devices placed on the body, which may cause discomfort. Our approach is based on the processing of long-term ballistocardiography data, which were measured using a sensory pad placed under the patient's mattress.

Sleep state classification is essential for managing and comprehending sleep patterns, and it is usually the first step in identifying sleep disorders. Polysomnography (PSG), the gold standard, is intrusive and inconvenient for regular/long-term sleep monitoring. Many sleep-monitoring techniques have recently seen a resurgence as a result of the rise of neural networks and advanced computing.
