The Multi-Sense CardioPatch prototype successfully measured electro-mechanical cardiac activity in healthy subjects, providing useful cardiac indexes for potential remote monitoring.
Can the Multi-Sense CardioPatch successfully measure electro-mechanical cardiac activity in healthy subjects?
The Multi-Sense CardioPatch prototype successfully measures electro-mechanical cardiac activity, demonstrating potential for remote monitoring in cardiac rehabilitation.
This study describes the conceptual design and the first prototype implementation of the Multi-Sense CardioPatch, a wearable multi-sensor patch for remote heart monitoring aimed at providing a more detailed and comprehensive heart status diagnostics. The system integrates multiple sensors in a single patch for detection of both electrical (electrocardiogram, ECG) and mechanical (heart sounds, HS) cardiac activity, in addition to physical activity (PA). The prototypal system also comprises a microcontroller board with a radio communication unit and it is powered by a Li-Ion rechargeable battery. Results from preliminary evaluations on healthy subjects have shown that the prototype can successfully measure electro-mechanical cardiac activity, providing useful cardiac indexes. The system has potential to improve remote monitoring of cardiac function in chronically diseased patients undergoing home-based cardiac rehabilitation programs.
