Abstract

According to various embodiments, an apparatus for assessing heart failure can include an image sensor configured to capture image data of a user, a sensor configured to capture sensor data for theuser, a memory configured to store the image data and the sensor data, and a processor coupled to the image sensor, the sensor, and the memory. The processor is configured to detect a biological condition regarding a user based on sensor data, obtain image data of the user in response to detecting the biological condition, detect a visual characteristic for heart health of the user from the image data, and in response to detecting the visual characteristic, provide heart failure information for the user.

Description

technical field [0001] This disclosure relates to heart failure. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to devices and methods for assessing heart failure. Background technique [0002] Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation has been shown to significantly reduce morbidity and mortality in cardiac patients, including those with heart failure. Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation is not always offered within a hospital setting due to various constraints. These constraints include, but are not limited to, limited availability of such programs, feasibility of patient participation, availability of secondary resources, etc. [0003] In those cardiac rehabilitation programs that do exist, exercise is generally prescribed according to universal heart rate guidelines. This is the case because many of the available cardiac rehabilitation programs do not take place in a hospital setting. In cases where a physician attempts to adjust the general heart rate guideline to ...
