Unobtrusive Monitoring of Heart Failure and its Effect on Ballistocardiograph

It is important that heart failure patients monitor their condition at home. We are exploring devices that can improve the self-monitoring required of patients and send this information back to their doctors. A technology that we are testing is ballistocardiography (BCG). BCG is a mechanical vibration generated by your heart and is recorded using a […]
