description: Heart disease impairs the quality of life and is a primary cause of death. Early detection of an episode of cardiac arrest or malfunction has a major effect on the rate of survival and level of potential recovery. Monitoring of heart function during activities of daily living may improve detection of cardiac events, compared to only monitoring cardiac function in clinical settings. This project is developing algorithms to monitor cardiac function using both electrocardiogram (EKG) and audio signals from a stethoscope (phonocardiogram). The activities of daily living during monitoring would generate noise and artifacts that interfere with the analysis of the cardiac signals. Having both EKG and audio monitoring would improve the robustness of the monitoring, possibly leading toward improved detection of cardiac events needing medical attention.
