In this work, we present the implementation of a platform for the pre-processing of a PCG signal from a double-winged mechanical heart valve. This platform is essential for the treatment of a patient undergoing a valve replacement operation. This application facilitates the intervention in case of emergency as well as the follow-up of the patient's health condition. Indeed, this approach will help cardiologists and scientific researchers to design a simple, secure, and intelligent digital tool, allowing them to have an additional source of information in the field of digital processing of cardiac signals. Finally, we tested and validated this platform with a cardiac signal from a patient with a blocked valve.
