Abstract:
The development of non-contact techniques for monitoring human vital signs has significant potential to improve patient care in diverse settings. By facilitating easier and more convenient monitoring, these techniques can prevent serious health issues and improve patient outcomes, especially for those unable or unwilling to travel to traditional healthcare environments. This systematic review examines recent advancements in non-contact vital sign monitoring techniques, evaluating publicly available datasets and signal preprocessing methods. Additionally, we identified potential future research directions in this rapidly evolving field.

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...
