BIOSPIN - Biomedical Signal Processing and Interpretation
La investigació s’emmarca en l’àmbit de l’Enginyeria Biomèdica. S’adreça al disseny i desenvolupament de tècniques avançades de processament de senyals biomèdics multimodals per a la monitorització no invasiva, diagnòstic, prevenció i tractament de malalties. Explorem nous mètodes per a la interpretació d’informació clínicament rellevant dels senyals biomèdics. L’objectiu és millorar el diagnòstic a través de la caracterització dels fenòmens fisiològics, aplicat a les principals malalties cardíacs, respiratories, neurològiques i trastorns del son. També desenvolupem bases de dades de biosenyals, realitzades conjuntament amb els hospitals per avaluar el rendiment dels algoritmes desenvolupats. I estudiem els algorismes proposats en models animals. El grup compta amb múltiples col·laboracions internacionals, incloent empreses i hospitals, d’Europa, Canadà i Estats Units. Actualment, els nostres prototipus s'utilitzen als hospitals per recerca i per a un futur desenvolupament industrial.

Engineered macroscale cardiac constructs elicit human myocardial tissue-like functionality
(2019-07-09)
Article
Open AccessIn vitro surrogate models of human cardiac tissue hold great promise in disease modeling, cardiotoxicity testing, and future applications in regenerative medicine. However, the generation of engineered human cardiac ... -
Characterization and classification of patients with different levels of cardiac death risk by using Poincaré plot analysis
(2017)
Conference lecture
Open AccessCardiac death risk is still a big problem by an important part of the population, especially in elderly patients. In this study, we propose to characterize and analyze the cardiovascular and cardiorespiratory systems using ... -

Assessment of respiratory muscle activity with surface electromyographic signals acquired by concentric ring electrodes
(2018)
Conference lecture
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe assessment of respiratory muscle activity by surface electromyography (sEMG) is a promising noninvasive technique for the diagnosis and monitoring of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The diaphragm is the ... -
Assessment of inspiratory muscle activation using surface diaphragm mechanomyography and crural diaphragm electromyography
(2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe relationship between surface diaphragm mechanomyography (sMMGdi), as a noninvasive measure of inspiratory muscle mechanical activation, and crural diaphragm electromyography (oesEMGdi), as the invasive gold standard ... -

Cardiorespiratory phase synchronization increases during certain mental stimuli in healthy subjects
(2018)
Conference report
Open AccessSeveral neurological and mechanical non-linear mechanisms relate the respiratory and cardiovascular systems to one another. Besides the well-known modulation of heart rate by respiration, another form of non-linear interaction ... -
Temporal categorization of upper limb muscle’s EMG activity during reaching and grasping
(Springer, 2018-10-16)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe describe the data processing employed to match EMG signals with the categorized behavioral movements obtained from video recordings in awake rats while reaching and grasping pellets. We want to determine whether or ... -
Assessment of respiratory flow cycle morphology in patients with chronic heart failure
(2017-02-01)
Article
Open AccessBreathing pattern as periodic breathing (PB) in chronic heart failure (CHF) is associated with poor prognosis and high mortality risk. This work investigates the significance of a number of time domain parameters for ... -
Surface mechanomyography and electromyography provide non-invasive indices of inspiratory muscle force and activation in healthy subjects
(Nature, 2018-11-16)
Article
Open AccessThe current gold standard assessment of human inspiratory muscle function involves using invasive measures of transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) or crural diaphragm electromyography (oesEMGdi). Mechanomyography is a ...
