ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an improved ballistocardiograph system, apparatus and method. Basic to the system of the present invention is a first rigid individualized mold having preferably a negative impression of the dorsal half of the body. The body mold rigidizes the body thereby facilitating the preparation of a ballistocardiogram. Additional rigidizing is provided by a second rigid mold, connected to the first mold, having preferably an exact negative impression of the ventral half of the body. The system can also include means for substantially eliminating artifacts created by movements of the body mold not caused by the subject.
