Hemopneumothorax detection through the process of artificial evolution - a feasibility study.

Military Medical Research
BACKGROUND: Tension pneumothorax is one of the leading causes of preventable death on the battlefield. Current prehospital diagnosis relies on a subjective clinical impression complemented by a manual thoracic and respiratory examination. These techn...

Deep learning diagnostic and risk-stratification pattern detection for COVID-19 in digital lung auscultations: clinical protocol for a case-control and prospective cohort study.

BMC pulmonary medicine
BACKGROUND: Lung auscultation is fundamental to the clinical diagnosis of respiratory disease. However, auscultation is a subjective practice and interpretations vary widely between users. The digitization of auscultation acquisition and interpretati...

Artificial intelligence accuracy in detecting pathological breath sounds in children using digital stethoscopes.

Respiratory research
BACKGROUND: Manual auscultation to detect abnormal breath sounds has poor inter-observer reliability. Digital stethoscopes with artificial intelligence (AI) could improve reliable detection of these sounds. We aimed to independently test the abilitie...

Evaluation of Hemodialysis Arteriovenous Bruit by Deep Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Physical findings of auscultation cannot be quantified at the arteriovenous fistula examination site during daily dialysis treatment. Consequently, minute changes over time cannot be recorded based only on subjective observations. In this study, we s...

Non-invasive identification of swallows via deep learning in high resolution cervical auscultation recordings.

Scientific reports
High resolution cervical auscultation is a very promising noninvasive method for dysphagia screening and aspiration detection, as it does not involve the use of harmful ionizing radiation approaches. Automatic extraction of swallowing events in cervi...

Practical implementation of artificial intelligence algorithms in pulmonary auscultation examination.

European journal of pediatrics
Lung auscultation is an important part of a physical examination. However, its biggest drawback is its subjectivity. The results depend on the experience and ability of the doctor to perceive and distinguish pathologies in sounds heard via a stethosc...

Lung sounds classification using convolutional neural networks.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Lung sounds convey relevant information related to pulmonary disorders, and to evaluate patients with pulmonary conditions, the physician or the doctor uses the traditional auscultation technique. However, this technique suffers from limitations. For...

A novel feature extraction technique for pulmonary sound analysis based on EMD.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The stethoscope based auscultation technique is a primary diagnostic tool for chest sound analysis. However, the performance of this method is limited due to its dependency on physicians experience, knowledge and also clarit...

Multichannel lung sound analysis for asthma detection.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Lung sound signals convey valuable information of the lung status. Auscultation is an effective technique to appreciate the condition of the respiratory system using lung sound signals. The prior works on asthma detection fr...

Deep Neural Networks for Identifying Cough Sounds.

IEEE transactions on biomedical circuits and systems
In this paper, we consider two different approaches of using deep neural networks for cough detection. The cough detection task is cast as a visual recognition problem and as a sequence-to-sequence labeling problem. A convolutional neural network and...
