Echocardiography Correlation with Seismocardiography-Systematic Review.

A methodological systematic review included literature retrieved from Scopus, PubMed, and IEEE-Explore. 61 studies on seismocardiography (SCG) and echocardiography (ECHO) were found. After screening for aortic and mitral valve timing events, 12 studies were selected. These studies focused on correlating SCG signals with ECHO using M-mode, PW-Doppler, CW-Doppler, and TDI. Variations in sensor placement and subject positioning highlighted the need for standardization. Our review stresses the importance of clear objectives, standardized protocols, and recording disease-specific impacts on heart mechanics for future research.
