Pulse rhythm

Pulse rhythm

Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure

Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure

Direct Method
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...

Discrete Fourier Transform

Discrete Fourier Transform

The Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) is a fundamental tool in signal processing, extending the discrete-time Fourier transform by evaluating discrete signals at uniformly spaced frequency intervals. This transformation converts a finite sequence of time-domain samples into frequency components, each representing complex sinusoids ordered by frequency. The DFT translates these sequences into the frequency domain, effectively indicating the magnitude and phase of each frequency component present...

Downsampling

Downsampling

When considering a sampled sequence with zero values between sampling instants, one can replace it by taking every N-th value of the sequence. At these integer multiples of N, the original and sampled sequences coincide. This process, known as decimation, involves extracting every N-th sample from a sequence, thereby creating a more efficient sequence.
The Fourier transform of the decimated sequence reveals a combination of scaled and shifted versions of the original spectrum. This...

Assessing Blood pressure using a doppler ultrasound

Assessing Blood pressure using a doppler ultrasound

To obtain accurate blood pressure measurements in clinical settings, especially when traditional methods are insufficient, healthcare professionals utilize the Doppler ultrasound technique. This method uses high-frequency sound waves to detect blood flow within the arteries, which is crucial for patients with conditions that complicate circulatory system assessment.

Background:

Non-invasive heartbeat monitoring faces challenges from noise interference, impacting signal accuracy.
Existing denoising techniques struggle with complex noise types common in real-world physiological signals.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop an enhanced Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) method for accurate and real-time heartbeat signal denoising.
To improve signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in electrocardiogram (ECG) signals corrupted by various noise sources.
To enhance the diagnostic accuracy of cardiovascular diseases through improved non-invasive sensing.

Main Methods:

Implemented an enhanced DWT incorporating objective denoising quality assessment metrics.
Utilized adaptive thresholding and adaptive threshold functions for noise reduction.
Tested denoising on ECG signals with simulated and real-world noise (AWG, baseline wander, motion artifacts, muscle artifacts).

Main Results:

Enhanced DWT achieved 1-5 dB SNR improvement for Gaussian white noise compared to traditional DWT.
For real-world noise, the proposed method yielded SNR improvements tens to hundreds of times greater than state-of-the-art techniques.
Validated effectiveness using fiber-optic micro-vibration sensor data, showing superior denoising quality.

Conclusions:

The enhanced DWT method effectively denoises heartbeat signals from non-invasive sensors.
This approach significantly improves signal quality, paving the way for more accurate cardiovascular disease diagnosis.
The proposed technique offers a robust solution for real-time physiological signal processing in clinical settings.
