Electrodermal Activity (EDA)
Typically, EDA is measured as skin conductance and a small direct constant voltage (0.5 vdc) is used as excitation source across the skin electrodes.
CNAP Noninvasive Blood Pressure Technology – An Overview
The interaction of an easy-to-use finger sensor with unique control loops and algorithms as well as with NBP provides high accuracy of the BP signal – equivalent to invasive arterial line.
Signal Artifact Associated with MRI
By Alan Macy, BIOPAC Systems, Inc. When performing MRI and simultaneously recording time-series physiological data, there are two basic types of artifact associated with MRI processes. The first type of artifact is associated with the presence of the large constant...
Impedance Cardiography
By Alan Macy, BIOPAC Systems, Inc. ICG is a measurement method that is primarily used to determine aspects of Cardiac Output (CO). CO is the total amount of blood, pumped from both the left and right ventricles of the heart for each of its successive systolic...
Electrocardiogram Waveshape Pt. 2
In some situations, it can be helpful to craft a compromise between maximizing ECG signal bandwidth, preserving the essential ECG waveshape, reducing the impact of skeletal myo-electrical noise and removing mains interference.
Electrocardiogram Waveshape – Pt 1
When recording ECG, it’s important to consider the impacts of electrode placement and amplifier filters on the measured biopotential. Electrode placement is important because different orientations of biopotential surface electrodes with respect to the heart’s position will result in different signal shapes.
