A platform for physiological signals including an intelligent stethoscope

• We have developed a physiological signal platform where presently phonocardiographic (PCG) and electrocardiographic (ECG) signals can be acquired and on which our signal analysis techniques can be implemented. The platform can also be used to store patient data, to enable comparison over time and invoke distance consultation if necessary. Our studies so far indicate that with our signal analysis techniques of heart sounds we are able to separate normal subject from those with aortic stenosis and mitral insufficiency. Further we are able to identify the third heart sound. The platform is being tested in a primary health care setting.
