Ballistocardiography Vector

Ballisto vector cardiography (BCV) is a new approach to diagnosing heart disease based on measuring heartbeats using acceleration vectors. This method uses special motion sensors that are attached to the patient's body and record the movements of various points on the patient's body. Unlike conventional ballisto cardiography, which takes into account only the amplitude of body oscillations, the vector method also takes into account the direction of the patient's movement at each measurement point.

The BKV method allows not only to detect heart rhythm disturbances, but also to determine the type of arrhythmia, which is crucial for the choice of treatment. Based on the analysis of BCV data, it is possible to establish an accurate diagnosis and prescribe the necessary treatment. Vector measurement of the heartbeat allows you to more accurately assess its quality and duration, which helps prevent dangerous complications of diseases of the cardiovascular system. The ballistocardiograph can be used both on an outpatient basis and in a hospital setting. The ease of use and accessibility of the method make it possible to diagnose a wide range of patients, from children to adults. Today, vector ballistocardiography methods are being actively implemented in many medical centers around the world, and this trend is becoming increasingly popular among doctors.
