Monitoring and analysis of lung sounds remotely
نویسنده
چکیده
Visual and auditory analysis of respiratory sound signals promises improved detection of certain types of lung diseases. LabVIEW software was used to design a system that monitors the respiratory activity of the patient. The program developed calculates the respiratory rate, displays the time expanded waveform of the lung sound, and computes the fast Fourier transform and short-time Fourier transform to present the power spectrum and spectrogram respectively. These parameters are transmitted synchronously to the remote station using the Internet for online monitoring of the patient.

A Wireless Electronic Esophageal Stethoscope for Continuous Monitoring of Cardiovascular and Respiratory Systems during Anaesthesia
Background: The basic requirements for monitoring anesthetized patients during surgery are assessing cardiac and respiratory function. Esophageal stethoscopes have been developed for this purpose, but these devices may not provide clear heart and lung sound due to existence of various noises in operating rooms. In addition, the stethoscope is not applicable for continues monitoring, and it is u...

The world is witnessing a dramatic shift of settlement pattern from rural to urban population, particularly in developing countries. The rapid Addis Ababa urbanization reflects this global phenomenon and the subsequent socio-economic and environmental impacts, are causing massive public uproar and political instability. The objective of this study was to use remotely sensed Landsat data to iden...
متن کاملVisual lung-sound characterization by time-expanded wave-form analysis.
To characterize lung sounds objectively, we examined, by means of time-amplitude plots, selected tape recordings of auscultatory phenomena considered by six observers to be typical of those in a standard classification. Normal lung sounds could not consistently be visually distinguished from adventitious sounds at conventional chart recorder speeds of 100 mm per second or less, but the differen...

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common autosomal recessive disorder in white skinned individuals. Chronic lung infection is the main cause of mortality in this disease. Approximately 60–75 % of adult CF patients frequently suffer from Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) infection that is strongly associated with inflammation, lung destruction, and increased mortality. Therefore, CF patients should be ...
