Abstract
A system and method for heart rhythm detection and reporting are disclosed. This cardiology system includes a biosensor system and a data analysis system. The biosensor system is worn by an individual and includes sensors that detect biosignals including infrasonic signals from the individual. The data analysis system receives the biosignals from the biosensor system, and determines heart rhythms of the individual based upon the biosignals. The system identifies at least some of biosignals as being associated with cardiovascular activity, such as pulse wave signals. Preferably, the biosensor system is an in-ear biosensor system that detects the biosignals via left and right earbuds placed within or at ear canals of the individual. The system can also identify arrhythmias including atrial fibrillation (Afib) arrhythmias from the heart rhythms, report information to health care and safety professionals and update medical records of the individuals.
