The ballistocardiography (BCG) signal is a measurement of the vibrations of the center of mass of the body due to the cardiac cycle and can be used for noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring. The seismocardiography (SCG) signals measure the local vibrati...
BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder that causes abnormal blood glucose (BG) regulation that might result in short and long-term health complications and even death if not properly managed. Currently, there is no cure for diabet...
BACKGROUND: Tracking patient-generated health data (PGHD) following total joint arthroplasty (TJA) may enable data-driven early intervention to improve clinical results. We aim to demonstrate the feasibility of combining machine learning (ML) with PG...
