Detecting current state of the congestive heart failure from heart sounds
A Slovenian public research organization has developed a method for detecting the current state of congestive heart failure (CHF) from heart sounds using a digital stethoscope. Patients have periods of feeling well and periods where they notice weakness, heavy breathing, which often requires hospital treatment. The system provides early detection of CHF worsening. Industrial partners are sought for licensing, technical cooperation or academia partners for research cooperation agreements.
