Monitoring cardiac activity in canines is essential for early disease detection and continuous health assessment. However, traditional systems can stress them and are typically limited to clinical or research settings. This research project aims to design, implement, and evaluate a noninvasive, portable system for acquiring electrocardiograms (ECG) signals in canines. The proposed system includes an ECG bioamplifier tailored for canines based on literature and analysis of a PhysioZoo database, analog-to-digital conversion, Bluetooth transmission to a computer, and an app with a graphical interface to govern data acquisition, storage, and signal processing. The experimental protocol was submitted and approved by an Institutional Committee for the Care and Use of Animals, following the NOM-062-ZOO-1999 regulations. This conference paper presents preliminary results of the proposed system, including ECG data acquisition from a medium-sized dog at rest. The findings point out the system’s feasibility for noninvasive cardiac monitoring in canines. The ongoing efforts of the research group focus on increasing database size, implementing heart rate estimation algorithms in the app, and in-depth performance analysis.

摘要

Monitoring cardiac activity in canines is essential for early disease detection and continuous health assessment. However, traditional systems can stress them and are typically limited to clinical or research settings. This research project aims to design, implement, and evaluate a noninvasive, portable system for acquiring electrocardiograms (ECG) signals in canines. The proposed system includes an ECG bioamplifier tailored for canines based on literature and analysis of a PhysioZoo database, analog-to-digital conversion, Bluetooth transmission to a computer, and an app with a graphical interface to govern data acquisition, storage, and signal processing. The experimental protocol was submitted and approved by an Institutional Committee for the Care and Use of Animals, following the NOM-062-ZOO-1999 regulations. This conference paper presents preliminary results of the proposed system, including ECG data acquisition from a medium-sized dog at rest. The findings point out the system’s feasibility for noninvasive cardiac monitoring in canines. The ongoing efforts of the research group focus on increasing database size, implementing heart rate estimation algorithms in the app, and in-depth performance analysis.
