Pouya-Heart Diagnostic Device:

Automated digital phonocardiograph, POUYA-Heart is an auscultation device for automatically screening children’s heart diseases. The screening accuracy of the digital phonocardiograph, POUYA-Heart, is by far higher than the accuracy of a typical pediatric cardiologist who invokes conventional auscultation or even computer-assisted auscultation.
A large number of pediatric referrals for cardiac evaluation have normal hearts. Besides, pathological symptoms are sometimes neglected during conventional auscultation due to incapability exists in human auditory system, such as masking effect. To find solution to these problems, we have done an elaborated international research and development for 21 years with close contact with engineering schools and children’s university hospitals.
Discriminating Between Different Heart Sound Another interesting capabilities of the system is its discrimination power in distinguishing innocent murmurs from the pathological murmurs.
Beside automated screening, as an intelligent digital phonocardiograph, POUYA-Heart also provides different options such as, listening and payback of recorded heart sounds with adjustable intensity levels, various selectable time scales for viewing the whole or part of a sound cycle, it shows the diagnosing results, segmentations and other characteristics of the signals. POUYA-Heart also provides the possibility of recording sound signals from different locations, ULSB, URSB, LLSB, and APAX.
