Abstract:
A kind of remote monitoring system on heart sound is constructed, which can tele-monitor ECG and PCG. The system integrates embedded internet technology and wireless technology. As it can send ECG and PCG by internet, it realizes real-time recording and monitoring of physiology parameter of patients at low cost and both at home and in hospital, and it also can be used for analysis for computer or reference for doctor. This study demonstrated that such kind of tele-monitoring system provides a low-cost, reliable and convenient solution for data acquisition and analysis of the PCG.

Heart Sounds
Auscultation is the process of listening to these internal body sounds using a stethoscope. The heart produces four types of sounds, but only two—S1 and S2—can usually be heard with a stethoscope.
S1, also known as the "lub" sound, is caused by the closure of atrioventricular (A-V) valves at the...
Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure
This invasive approach involves cannulating a peripheral artery. During each cardiac contraction, pressure generates mechanical motion within the catheter, transmitted through rigid, fluid-filled tubing to a transducer. This transducer converts mechanical motion into electrical signals displayed as waveforms on a monitor. An automatic flushing system prevents blood backflow. Due to the potential risk of unexpected arterial blood loss, this method is primarily used in intensive...

Normal Heart Sounds
S1 (First Heart Sound)-
S1 is made by the closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves (atrioventricular valves), marking the beginning of systole.
S2 (Second Heart Sound)-
S2 is made by the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves (semilunar valves), marking the end of the systole.
