The present work deals with the feasibility of a system that can extract BKG through platform dynamometry and thus estimate the cardiac output through reverse modelling. 10 subjects underwent quiet stance trials with simultaneous recording of ECG signals. Cardiac activity force, and the estimation of the cardiac output were extracted through averaging and reverse modelling. Estimated values for cardiac parameters are consistent with the regression with anthropometrical factors, such as body surface area, and confirm the feasibility of a non invasive technique based on dynamometry to provide information on cardiac function.
