Chronotropic Competence Indices Extracted from Wearable Sensors for Cardiovascular Diseases Management
نویسندگان
چکیده
Chronotropic incompetence (CI) has been proven to be an important factor in the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular diseases. In this paper, we extend the existing CI parameters and propose chronotropic competence indices (CCI) to describe the exercise response of the cardiopulmonary system. A cardiac chronotropic competence Test (3CT), dedicated to CCI measurement using a wearable device, is also presented. Preliminary clinical trials are presented for the validation of 3CT measurement accuracy, and to show the potential of CCI in the prevention and rehabilitation of cardiovascular diseases.

A clear association between chronotropic incompetence and increased mortality has been established by a variety of studies in patients with coronary artery disease as well as in healthy individuals. These results gave rise to speculation that rate responsive stimulation might improve prognosis in pacemaker (PM) patients with concomitant chronotropic incompetence. To date, however, no study was ...

Digitization of lengthy personal experiences would be made possible by constant recording using wearable video cameras. It is conceivable that the resulting amount of video content would be extraordinarily large. In order to retrieve and browse the desired scenes, a vast amount of video would need to be organized with structural information. In this paper, we attempt to develop a “Wearable Imag...
