Zusammenfassung:This invention relates to a system and a method for continuous monitoring of the heart activities via a mobile device and algorithm to detect heart anomalies based on readings on electrocardiogram (ECG) and phonocardiogram (PCG). The system includes an integrated ECG and PCG apparatus comprising: a housing having a top part and a bottom part, the bottom part of the housing includes a tapered surface extending from a perimeter of a bottom surface to an opening at the top of the bottom part forming an acoustic chamber; a power source housed within the top part; an audio receiver arranged to seal the opening for obtaining PCG signal; a plurality of dry sensors arranged at the bottom surface for obtaining ECG signal; a processing unit powered by the power source and communicatively connectable to the audio receiver and the plurality of dry sensors, wherein the bottom part of the housing is adaptably configured to create a snug fit on a subject preventing the audio receiver from picking acoustic noise from outside the acoustic chamber.
