Acoustic Cardiac Signal Analysis : a toolbox
Authors
Abstract
We present a Matlab framework for heart sound processing and analysis. This framework includes algorithms developed for segmentation of the main heart sound components capable of handling situations with high-grade murmur, and for measuring systolic time intervals (STI). Methods for cardiac function parameter extraction based on STI are also included. Currently, the proposed algorithms are being extended for multi-channel applications. The algorithms outlined in the paper have been extensively evaluated using data collected from patients with several types of cardiovascular diseases under real-life conditions.
