| Summary: | Human heart sounds are very natural signals, which have been applied in the
doctor's auscultation for health monitoring and diagnosis for many years ago.
Auscultation techniques can be applied for diagnosing many heart disorders, which is
the most reliable and successful tools for early diagnosis. For heart failure or any
heart disease which can bring someone to death, heart sound acquisition is the most
trustworthy tools. With no software to easily hear and record the patient's heart
sound; this might be not helpful for doctors to observe the condition of their patient's
heart especially for the patients with chronic cardiovascular decease. This project
will be a helpful system to the doctors because the patient's heart sound can be
recorded or heard from the personal computer sound system or their laptop speaker.
The purpose of this project is to design a system using Visual Basic 6.0 software
application which user can hear the similar sound heard at the stethoscope at the
speaker, record the sound and can see the waveform of the sound for comparison or
analysis. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) for this system have been designed for
user friendly operation and making the software easy to use. The heart sound will be
captured by electronic stethoscope and will be connected to the sound card in
personal computer or laptop by using the phone jack. The sound that has been
recorded can be saved for further analysis. This Heart Sound Acquisition System can
be a useful tool for the doctors, health practice, educational purpose or and can be
used by those who doing any cardiovascular health analysis or experiments. |
