Abstract
Various methods and systems are provided for monitoring a pulmonary artery pressure and cardiac synchronization of a subject. In one example, a method includes acquiring at least one of electrocardiogram (ECG) data, phonocardiogram (PCG) data, and seismocardiogram (SCG) data from a subject via a digital stethoscope, inputting one or more of the ECG data, the PCG data, and the SCG data into a machine learning algorithm, and estimating at least one of a pulmonary artery pressure and a cardiac synchronization of the subject using the machine learning algorithm. In this way, the pulmonary artery pressure and the cardiac synchronization may be estimated using artificial intelligence and inputs that are non-invasively measured by the digital stethoscope, allowing conditions like heart failure and pulmonary hypertension to be more simply and reliably detected and monitored.
