Brief purpose of the study: | In this project, we investigate a wearable wireless device, the designed devices can measure the electrocardiograms (ECG), seismocardiogram (SCG), and gyrocardiograms (GCG), enabling non-invasive measurement of multi-channel signals and achieve the real-time monitoring the cardiac status. The data will be collected from healthy human volunteers. The obtained wireless wearable device will be tested on the chest skin of human volunteers to evaluate its performance. |
Brief summary of what participants will be asked to do: | The wireless wearable devices will be placed on the surface of human skin to measure ECG, SCG and GCG signals that are naturally produced by human bodies. During the lab visit, we have divided the test into two stages. The first stage is sitting, including sitting still and simple speaking. The second stage involves walking, which includes two exercises, jogging at a speed of 2-4 miles/h, and running at a speed of 3-6 miles/h, with the speed determined according to the participant’s physical condition. Each exercise lasts for 15 minutes. For the older participants and those with less optimal physical conditions, they could be accelerated walking instead of jogging. Additionally, the duration of the exercise can be adjusted in real-time based on the physical condition of the participant. |
Basic eligibility criteria: | Our group team is currently seeking healthy volunteers, aged from 19 to 70 years, to participate in a wireless wearable device test for monitoring heart health. We will exclude children, pregnant women, prisoners and patients diagnosed with heart disease symptoms. This excludes participants with major illness history and experienced any cardiac-related diseases recently. |
