- Objectives: To study capabilities of the intelligent phonocardiography (IPCG) in automatic grading severity of the aortic stenosis (AS).Methods: Phonocardiogram signals were recorded from the patients with AS, as diagnosed by echocardiography. The patient group is comprised of signals, recorded from 5 patients (2 recordings from each), mostly elderly referrals (>60 years) with mild to severe AS. An advanced processing algorithm, consisted of the wavelet transform and the stepwise regression analysis, characterizes the systolic murmur caused by the AS in order to predict the 5 indicators; mean pressure gradient over the aortic valve (MPG), maximum jet velocity (MJV), aortic valve area (AVA), velocity time integral and the ejection period. The automatic assessment is performed by an artificial neural network using the predicted values of the indicators as the input data. Reliability of the IPCG is validated by applying repeated random sub-sampling (RRSS) with 70%/30% of the training/testing data, and calculating the accuracy. The RRSS is also employed to validate reproducibility of the IPCG by using 70% of the signals for training and the second recording of the same individuals for testing.Results: Accuracy of the IPCG is estimated to be and (95% confidence interval) for the reliability and the reproducibility, respectively. Linear correlation between the characterized systolic murmur and the MPG (r>0.81), the MJV (r>0.82) and the AVA (r>0.85) is observed.Conclusions: The IPCG has the potential to objectively serve as a clinical tool for grading severity of the aortic stenosis.
