Method and system for acquiring data for assessment of cardiovascular disease
A method and system for acquiring data for assessment of cardiovascular disease, the method comprising one or more of: manipulating one or more hardware aspects of the photoplethysmography data acquisition system(s) implementing the method; manipulating or providing user experience/user interface (UX/UI) aspects of the system(s) implementing the method; acquiring, processing, and deriving insights population specific data; accounting for or controlling sampling site variability; and using other suitable sources of data in order to generate high quality data for characterization, assessment, and management of cardiovascular disease.
1. A method comprising:
a) determining a time series of data of a body region of the individual at a device coupled to an individual;
b) determining a mapping of the body region of the individual at the device for each of a set of frames of the time series of data;
c) determining an active pixel set for each of the set of frames of the time series of data;
d) aggregating at least one of the mappings or the active pixel sets of the set of frames of the time series of data into an aggregated time series of data; and
e) determining a health biomarker value of the individual based upon the aggregated time series.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting the health biomarker value to the device.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
iteratively repeating steps a)-e) to determine a second health biomarker value; and
comparing the first health biomarker value to the second health biomarker value.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising extracting a subset of the aggregated time series of data, wherein the health biomarker value is determined based on the subset.
