Validity and reliability of acoustic analysis of respiratory sounds in infants.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the validity and reliability of computerised acoustic analysis in the detection of abnormal respiratory noises in infants. METHODS Blinded, prospective comparison of acoustic analysis with stethoscope examination. Validity and reliability of acoustic analysis were assessed by calculating the degree of observer agreement using the kappa statistic with 95% confidence in...
متن کاملAcoustic Detection of Coronary Occlusions before and after Stent Placement Using an Electronic Stethoscope
More than 370,000 Americans die every year from coronary artery disease (CAD). Early detection and treatment are crucial to reducing this number. Current diagnostic and disease-monitoring methods are invasive, costly, and time-consuming. Using an electronic stethoscope and spectral and nonlinear dynamics analysis of the recorded heart sound, we investigated the acoustic signature of CAD in subj...
متن کاملDesign and Development of a Digital Stethoscope for Cardiac Murmur
The stethoscope has been used for many years, and it has been very effective to diagnose certain pulmonologic and cardiologic sounds. From many years healthcare professionals would listen quietly to patients internal organs so they could diagnose from specific sounds of such internal organs. The sound level of an acoustic stethoscope is very low, making heart diagnosis more difficult. In this p...
متن کاملDiscovering new facts and revealing existing myths about the acoustic stethoscope 200 years after its invention
Acoustic stethoscope, invented exactly 200 years ago by French physician, Rene Laennec, is the most widespread medical diagnostic device, and also the icon of the medical profession. Hence, it might seem strange, that the mechanisms and physical phenomena underlying the auscultation examination are still not well understood, and some of the commonly repeated statements – such as those regarding...
متن کاملFibre Optic Acoustic Sensing for Intrusion Detection Systems
In this study, acoustic emissions (AEs) were detected through a variety of different flooring materials using a fibre Bragg grating (FBG). The AEs were generated using a low velocity impact test, and by footstep. The acoustic vibrations cause a strain in the optical fibre, and hence alter the wavelength reflected by the FBG. This strain induced wavelength shift can then easily be detected by co...
