▼ There is a current trend towards the use of wearable biomedical devices for the purpose of recording various biosignals, such as electrocardiograms (ECG). Wearable devices have different issues and challenges compared to nonwearable ones, including motion artifacts and contact characteristics related to body-conforming materials. Due to this susceptibility to noise and artifacts, signals acquired from wearable devices may lead to incorrect interpretations, including false alarms and misdiagnoses. This research addresses two challenges of wearable devices. First, it investigates the effect of applied pressure on biopotential electrodes that are in contact with the skin. The pressure affects skin–electrode impedance, which impacts the quality of the acquired signal. We propose a setup for measuring skin–electrode impedance during a sequence of applied calibrated pressures. The Cole–Cole impedance model is utilized to model the skin–electrode interface. Model parameters are extracted and compared in each state of measurement with respect to the amount of pressure applied. The results indicate that there is a large change in the magnitude of skin–electrode impedance when the pressure is applied for the first time, and slight changes in impedance are observed with successive application and release of pressure. Second, this research assesses the quality of ECG signals to reduce issues related to poor-quality signals, such as false alarms. We design an algorithm based on Deep Belief Networks (DBN) to distinguish clean from contaminated ECGs and validate it by applying real clean ECG signals taken from the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database of Physionet and contaminated signals with motion artifacts at varying signal-to-noise ratios (SNR). The results demonstrate that the algorithm can recognize clean from contaminated signals with an accuracy of 99.5% for signals with an SNR of -10 dB. Once low- and high-quality signals are separated, low-quality signals can undergo additional pre-processing to mitigate the contaminants, or they can simply be discarded. This approach is applied to reduce the false alarms caused by poor-quality ECG signals in atrial fibrillation (AFib) detection algorithms. We propose a signal quality gating system based on DBN and validate it with AFib signals taken from the MIT-BIH Atrial Fibrillation database of Physionet. Without gating, the AFib detection accuracy was 87% for clean ECGs, but it markedly decreased as the SNR decreased, with an accuracy of 58.7% at an SNR of -20 dB. With signal quality gating, the accuracy remained high for clean ECGs (87%) and increased for low SNR signals (81% for an SNR of -20 dB). Furthermore, since the desired level of quality is application dependent, we design a DBN-based algorithm to quantify the quality of ECG signals. Real ECG signals with various types of arrhythmias, contaminated with motion artifacts at several SNR levels, are thereby classified based on their SNRs. The results show that our algorithm can perform a multi-class classification with an accuracy…

▼ The surface electrocardiogram (ECG) is a periodic signal portraying the electrical activity of the heart from the torso. The past fifty years have witnessed a proliferation of computer algorithms destined for ECG analysis. Signal averaging is a noise reduction technique believed to enable the surface ECG to act as a non-invasive surrogate for cardiac electrophysiology. The P wave and the QRS complex of the ECG respectively depict atrial and ventricular depolarization. QRS detection is a pre-requisite to P wave and QRS averaging. A novel algorithm for robust QRS detection in mice achieves a four-fold reduction in false detections compared to leading commercial software, while its human version boasts an error rate of just 0.29% on a public database containing ECGs with varying morphologies and degrees of noise. A fully automated P wave and QRS averaging and onset/offset detection algorithm is also proposed. This approach is shown to predict atrial fibrillation, a common cardiac arrhythmia which could cause stroke or heart failure, from normal asymptomatic ECGs, with 93% sensitivity and 100% specificity. Automated signal averaging also proves to be slightly more reproducible in consecutive recordings than manual signal averaging performed by expert users. Several studies postulated that high-frequency energy content in the signal-averaged QRS may be a marker of sudden cardiac death. Traditional frequency spectrum analysis techniques have failed to consistently validate this hypothesis. Layered Symbolic Decomposition (LSD), a novel algorithmic time-scale analysis approach requiring no basis function assumptions, is presented. LSD proves more reproducible than state-of-the-art algorithms, and capable of predicting sudden cardiac death in the general population from the surface ECG with 97% sensitivity and 96% specificity. A link between atrial refractory period and high-frequency energy content of the signal-averaged P wave is also considered, but neither LSD nor other algorithms find a meaningful correlation. LSD is not ECG-specific and may be effective in countless other signals with no known single basis function, such as other bio-potentials, geophysical signals, and socio-economic trends.

▼ Epilepsy is associated with an increased mortality rate. In 7 to 17% of epileptics, the cause of death is unknown and this has been termed sudden unexplained death in epilepsy (SUDEP). Seizure-induced cardiac changes have been implicated in the pathophysiology of SUDEP and impaired autonomic regulation is not uncommon in epilepsy. Epileptic patients generally present with a higher heart rate than healthy individuals and tachycardia is frequently reported during seizure activity. Ictal bradycardia is rare, occurring in ~2% of seizures. It is hypothesised that seizures result in a surge of sympathetic activity which leads to tachycardia and heart damage. SUDEP is more prevalent in males than females and oestrogen is associated with cardio- and neuro- protective effects. Therefore it is expected that seizure severity, arrhythmias and cardiac pathology will be higher in males. In this study, kainic acid (KA, 10 mg/kg, s.c.) was used to induce seizures in male and female Sprague-Dawley rats. Electrocardiograph (ECG), electrocorticograph (ECoG) and behavioural data were recorded simultaneously for 3 hours post KA administration. KA administration resulted in a rapid significant decrease in heart rate (>30%) which lasted for 30-60 min. Bradycardia was associated with hypoactivity and low seizure behaviours. At 100 min post KA dosing, seizure severity increased resulting in an elevated cumulative behavioural seizure score (Level 3+) in conjunction with an increase in heart rate (20%). Wet dog shakes were the most commonly observed behaviour in males while females exhibited higher seizure behaviours such as myoclonic jerks, foaming and rearing. Tonic-clonic seizures were only observed in female KA animals. ECoG traces were analysed by Fast Fourier Transformation of different frequency bands. Females showed greater increases in power across all ECoG frequency bands. The greatest increase occurred in the theta band (4.75-6.75 Hz) which is associated with hippocampal activity. The P wave showed the largest ECG change during seizure activity. In males the P wave duration significantly decreased by 30-40% while no change was observed in females. In females significant decreases in P wave amplitude of up to 50% were observed while no significant changes occurred in males following KA administration. A prolonged PR interval was also present in females during bradycardia and tachycardia. Gender specific alterations in the QTc interval were also observed, with QTc prolongation occurring in males and QTc shortening in females. Histological examination of apical and mid-plane myocardium found that KA induced seizures resulted in left ventricular pathology observed by the presentation of oedema, inflammatory cell infiltration, intra-cardiac haemorrhage and myofibril vacuolisation 48 hours post KA. The results from this study demonstrate that KA induced seizures were associated with altered cardiac activity as observed by heart rate and ECG changes. Seizure induced tachycardia may predispose the subject to fatal arrhythmias and… Advisors/Committee Members: Kerr, Steven (advisor).

▼ The research over-viewed in this dissertation concerns very accurate variational calculations of the molecular systems with more than two electrons under the assumption of the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation. The centerpiece of this research is the use of explicitly correlated Gaussian (ECG) basis functions with floating centers to generate the potential energy curve (PEC) and potential energy surface (PES) of the considered molecular systems. One challenge of such calculations is the occurrence of the linear dependency between basis functions in the process of basis set optimization. The BO PECs generated with ECG basis sets were limited to two-electron molecular systems for a few decades prior to the implementation of the author's approaches to this issue. These approaches include methods for a partial remedy to linear dependence, better guessing of initial basis functions, permanently removing the restriction of memory usage in parallel computer systems, and efficiently paralleling the calculations. The approach effectively utilizing the super computer systems yields benefits not only to the ECG calculations but could also be useful in the fields that require the significant amount of the computational resources. These procedures were implemented in computer codes that were run quite extensively on several parallel computer systems during the period of the author's Ph.D study. The calculated adiabatic PECs and the rovibrational energy levels are proven to be the most accurate ones to date. The dissertation is primarily based on the content of the papers that were published in co-authorship with my scientific advisor and other collaborators in several scientific journals. It also includes some details that were not considered in the publications but are essential for the completeness and good understanding of the presented work. In order to provide readers an insight into the development of the ECG based BO molecular calculation, the published results of many calculations are classified and presented in a comprehensive way.

▼ Nowadays stress has become a regular part of life. Stress is difficult to measure because there has been no definition of stress that everyone accepts. Furthermore, if we do not get a handle on our stress and it becomes long term, it can seriously interfere with our health. Therefore, finding the method for stress detection could be beneficial for taking control of stress. Electrocardiogram (ECG) is the measurement of the electrical activity of the heart and represents an established standard in determining the health condition of the heart. The PQRST1[55] complex of ECG conveys information about each cardiac-cycle, where the R-peak is placed in the middle of the PQRST complex and represents the maximum value of the PQRST. Since the PQRST depicts the entire cardio-cycle, the R–peak determines half of the cardio-cycle. The distance between two adjacent R-peaks is defined as a heart rate (HR). The variation of the HR in the specific time frame, defined as heart rate variability (HRV), can reflect the state of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS has two main divisions, the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). The SNS occurs in response to stress while the PNS results from the function of internal organs. The activity of ANS can cause an acceleration (SNS) or deceleration (PNS) of the HR. The SNS activity is associated with the low-frequency range while, the PNS activity is associated with the high frequency component of the HRV. Therefore, the power ratio of the low and high-frequency components of the spectrum of HRV can potentially show whether the subject is exposed to stress or not [48] [50]. In this research, we introduced three new indices, with one of them proposed as a proxy to provide equivalent results in the detection of stress or no-stress states while avoiding complex measurement devices as well as complex calculations. The goal was to find a more time efficient method for fast stress detection which could potentially be used in the applications that run on devices such as a wearable smartwatch in tandem with a smartphone or tablet. The experiment was established to measure the literature proposed index for stress measurement [48][50] as well as our introduced indices. In the experiment, we induced stress to the participants by using mental arithmetic as a stressor [51][53]. Theexperiment contained two kinds of trials. In the first one, the participant was exposed to different amounts of cognitive load induced by doing mental-arithmetic while, in the second one, the participant was placed in a relaxed environment. Each participant in the experiment gave feedback in which period of the experiment he/she felt stress. During the entire experiment, we recorded theparticipant‘s ECG. The ECG was used to calculate HRV which consequently was used for the calculation of the values of the index as proposed from the literature for calculating the level of the stress. The same data was used for the calculation of our introduced indices. The values of our proposed…

▼ Kardiologisten hoitajien EKG:n tulkintataito on merkittävässä asemassa hoidettaessa sydänsairaita potilaita. Kardiologisten hoitajien EKG:n tulkinnassa on isoja vaihteluita. Hoitajien tulee pystyä tulkitsemaan EKG:ssä tapahtuvista muutoksista ja tiedottaa niistä eteenpäin. Hoitajilla tulee olla myös tarvittavat tiedot ja taidot toteuttaa EKG-monitorointi oikein. Kansainvälisiä tutkimuksia kardiologisten hoitajien EKG:n tulkintataidoista on tehty jonkun verran. Kotimaisia tutkimuksia ei tiettävästi ole tehty. Aiheesta tarvitaan lisää tutkittua tietoa. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli kuvata yliopistosairaaloiden kardiologisilla osastoilla työskentelevien hoitajien EKG:n tulkintataitoja. Tämän tutkimuksen kohderyhmän muodostivat Suomen viiden yliopistosairaalan kardiologisilla toiminta-alueilla työskentelevät hoitajat (n=168). Tutkimuksen vastausprosentti oli 18 %. Tämän tutkimuksen aineisto kerättiin sähköisellä e-lomakkeella. Tutkimuksen aineisto analysoitiin tilastollisin menetelmin. Aineiston kuvailussa käytettiin apuna frekvenssi-, prosentti-, keski- ja hajontalukuja. Muuttujien välisten yhteyksien tarkasteluun käytettiin Mann-Whitney U –testiä, Kruskall-Wallisin H –testiä sekä Spearmanin järjestyskorrelaatiokerrointa. Kardiologisten hoitajien tulkintataito oli suhteellisen hyvää. Tulosten mukaan kardiologisilla osastoilla työskentelevien hoitajien EKG osaaminen on heidän oman arviointinsa mukaan erittäin hyvää. Hoitajien EKG:n tulkinta on hyvää. Miehet osasivat tunnistaa naisia paremmin eri EKG-rytmejä (p=0.043). Työpaikalla saadulla koulutuksella (p=0.007) EKG:n tulkintaan ja nykyisellä työpaikalla (p=0.049) oli tilastollisesti erittäin merkitsevä yhteys EKG-osaamiseen. EKG osaamisella ja nykyisellä työpaikalla oli tilastollisesti merkitsevä yhteys. Nykyisellä työpaikalla ja EKG:n tulkinnalla oli tilastollisesti merkitsevä yhteys (p-=0.046). Kardiologisten hoitajien EKG osaamisen ja EKG:n tulkinnan välillä oli tilastollisesti merkitsevä yhteys. Tämän tutkimuksen tuottamaa tietoa voidaan hyödyntää EKG:n tulkintataitojen kehittämiseen ja hoitajien EKG osaamisen sekä EKG:n tulkinnan koulutustarpeen määrittelyyn. Tärkeää olisi kohdentaa EKG-koulutus harjoitusta vaativille osa-alueille. Tärkeää olisi myös järjestää säännöllisiä EKG:n tulkinnan koulutuksia. ABSTRACT Nurses ECG interpretation skills Cardiac nurses ECG skills are in a significant role when looking after cardiac patients. There are great variations of nurses ECG interpretation .Nurses should be able to interpret changes in ECG and report them further. Nurses should also have the necessary knowledge and skills to perform ECG monitoring properly. There are few studies which have been made of cardiac nurses' ECG skills. There are no finnish studies of this topic. More research is needed from this topic. The purpose of the study was to describe the ECG interpretation skills of nurses, who worked in university hospitals cardiology wards. The data of this study consisted of nurses (n = 168), who worked in the cardic areas of five university…

A gonadotrofina coriônica equina (eCG) tem sido utilizada em programas de sincronização para inseminação artificial em tempo fixo e normalmente promove o aumento do volume do corpo lúteo e a da produção de progesterona. Além disso, esta mesma gonadotrofina pode ser utilizada para superovulação. Desse modo, hipóteses relativas aos mecanismos pelos quais gonadotrofinas exógenas alteram as funções celulares nos corpos lúteos resultantes foram formuladas. Para testar tais hipóteses, 18 vacas (Bos indicus) foram divididas em grupos: controle (n=5), estimulado (n=6) e superovulado (n=7) e a ovulação das mesmas foi sincronizada usando um protocolo já estabelecido com dispositivo de progesterona. Os animais estimulados receberam 400 UI de eCG no dia de remoção do dispositivo de progesterona e os animais superovulados 4 dias antes. No dia 7 após injeção de GnRh, os animais foram abatidos para a coleta de CLL e sangue. Análises de peso e volume de CL, concentração de progesterona (P4), bem como da expressão gênica e proteica de fatores angiogênicos e de proteínas esteroidogênicas foram realizadas. Além disso, o transcriptoma foi analisado por microarranjo. Foi observado que o volume do CL foi maior nos animais do grupo estimulado (1177,37 ± 167,07 mm3) e ainda maior nos do superovulado (1495,18 ± 137,01 mm3) quando comparados ao grupo controle (830,33 ± 234,99 mm3; p = 0,03). A concentração média de progesterona por CL nos animais do grupo estimulado foi maior que nos animais do grupo controle (5,95 ± 0,17 vs 3,69 ± 0,72 ng/ml; p = 0,03) e que nos superovulados (4,11 ± 0.73; p = 0,01). Além disso, os tratamentos com eCG aumentaram a expressão do FGFR2 e também da STAR nos animais estimulados e superovulados (p < 0,05). Quanto aos resultados do microarranjo, no total 242 transcritos foram aumentados e 111 foram diminuídos nos animais estimulados e 111 foram aumentados e 113 diminuídos nos animais superovulados em relação aos animais controle (~1,5 vezes, p 0.05). Entre os genes diferencialmente expressos, muitos estavam envolvidos na síntese de lipídios e na produção de progesterona, tais como: PPARG, HMGCR, STAR, receptores de prolactina e folistatina. Estes achados demonstraram que os tratamentos com eCG modularam a expressão gênica diferencialmente, dependendo do tratamento, e que nossos dados contribuem para entender as vias relacionadas ao aumento do volume do CL e da produção de progesterona observada após os tratamentos. Em um segundo experimento, foi realizado análises da influência do FSH na expressão de VEGF no cultivo de células da granulosa. Neste experimento foi possível observar que o FSH aumentou a expressão gênica e proteica do VEGF, colaborando com a ideia de que as gonadotrofinas têm propriedades angiogênicas.

Equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) has been widely used in synchronization protocol to artificial insemination program and usually promote corpus luteum (CL) volume increases and stimulates progesterone production. Furthermore the same gonadotropin can be used to superovulation protocols. Thus,…

A tarefa mais importante em processamento de sinais de eletrocardiograma (ECG) Ã a determinaÃÃo exata do complexo de QRS, em particular, a detecÃÃo dos picos de onda R atravÃs de sistemas e anÃlises computadorizadas. Ã essencial, especialmente, para uma medida correta da variabilidade do ritmo cardÃaco (HRV). Um grande obstÃculo a ser superado para uma detecÃÃo confiÃvel Ã a sensibilidade do eletrocardiograma a diversas fontes de distÃrbio, tais como, a interferÃncia Ã rede elÃtrica, os artefatos do movimento, flutuaÃÃo da linha base e o ruÃdo dos mÃsculos. Este trabalho utiliza as propriedades matemÃticas da transformaÃÃo de Hilbert sobre wavelets para desenvolver um novo algoritmo capaz de diferenciar as ondas R das demais (P, Q, S, T e U) e facilitar a detecÃÃo dos complexos QRS. Uma taxa de detecÃÃo do complexo QRS de 99,92% Ã alcanÃada para a base de dados de arritmias do MIT-BIH. A tolerÃncia a ruÃdo do mÃtodo proposto foi tambÃm testada usando os registros padrÃo da base de dados MIT-BIH Noise Stress Test. A taxa da detecÃÃo do detector ficou aproximadamente 99,35% mesmo para as relaÃÃes sinal-ruÃdo (SNR) tÃo baixo quanto 6dB.

The most important task in the ECG signal processing is the accurate determina-tion of QRS complex, in particular, accurate detection of the R wave peaks, is essential in computer-based ECG analysis especially for a correct measurement of Heart Rate Variability (HRV). A great hurdle to be overcome in reliable detection is the sensibility of the electrocar-diogram to several disturbance sources such as powering source interference, movement arti-facts, baseline wandering and muscle noise. This study uses the Hilbert Transform pairs of wavelet bases for QRS detection. From the properties of these mathematical tools it was pos-sible to develop an algorithm which is able to differentiate the R waves from the others (P, Q, S, T and U waves).The performance of the algorithm was verified using the records MIT-BIH arrhythmia and normal databases. A QRS detection rate of 99.92% was achieved against MIT-BIH arrhythmia database. The noise tolerance of the proposed method was also tested using standard records from the MIT-BIH Noise Stress Test Database. The detection rate of the detector remains about 99.35% even for signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) as low as 6dB.

▼ Sudden cardiac arrest is often caused by ventricular arrhythmias and these episodes can lead to death for patients with chronic heart disease. Hence, detection of such arrhythmia is crucial in mobile ECG monitoring. In this research, a systematic study is carried out to investigate the possible limitations that are preventing the realisation of a real-time ECG arrhythmia data-mining algorithm suitable for application on mobile devices. Based on the findings, a computationally lightweight algorithm is devised and tested. Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is the most common type of ventricular arrhythmias and is also the deadliest.. A ventricular tachycardia (VT) episode is due to a disorder ofthe regular contractions ofthe heart. It occurs when the human heart ventricles generate a rapid heartbeat which disrupts the regular physiology cycle. The normal sinus rhythm (NSR) of a regular human heart beat signal has its signature PQRST waveform and in regular pattern. Whereas, the characteristics of a ventricular tachycardia (VT) signal waveforms are short R-R intervals, widen QRS duration and the absence of P-waves. Each type of ECG arrhythmia previously mentioned has a unique waveform signature that can be exploited as features to be used for the realization of an automated ECG analysis application. In order to extract this known ECG waveform feature, a time-domain analysis is proposed for feature extraction. Cross-correlation allows the computation of a co-efficient that quantifies the similarity between two times-series. Hence, by cross-correlating known ECG waveform templates with an unknown ECG signal, the coefficient can indicate the similarities. In previous published work, a preliminary study was carried out. The cross-correlation coefficient wave (CCW) technique was introduced for feature extraction. The outcome ofthis work presents CCW as a promising feature to differentiate between NSR, VT and Vfib signals. Moreover, cross-correlation computation does not require high computational overhead. Next, an automated detection algorithm requires a classification mechanism to make sense of the feature extracted. A further study is conducted and published, a fuzzy set k-NN classifier was introduced for the classification of CCW feature extracted from ECG signal segments. A training set of size 180 is used. The outcome of the study indicates that the computationally light-weight fuzzy k-NN classifier can reliably classify between NSR and VT signals, the class detection rate is low for classifying Vfib signal using the fuzzy k-NN classifier. Hence, a modified algorithm known as fuzzy hybrid classifier is proposed. By implementing an expert knowledge based fuzzy inference system for classification of ECG signal; the Vfib signal detection rate was improved. The comparison outcome was that the hybrid fuzzy classifier is able to achieve 91.1% correct rate, 100% sensitivity and 100% specificity. The previously mentioned result outperforms the compared classifiers. The proposed detection and classification algorithm is able to…

As doenças cardiovasculares representam a principal causa de morte em nível mundial, sendo responsáveis por 17,3 milhões de mortes por ano. O eletrocardiograma (ECG) é uma técnica não invasiva utilizada amplamente para a detecção de algumas doenças cardiovasculares. Para aumentar a sensibilidade diagnóstica, o ECG é adquirido em ambulatório ou durante provas de esforço físico. Nessas condições de aquisição é afetado fortemente por vários tipos de ruídos, principalmente pelas flutuações de linha base (FLB). Apesar de existirem vários métodos para a eliminação das FLB, não foi identificado nenhum estudo comparativo que avalie quantitativamente estes métodos usando os mesmos sinais. Neste trabalho foi feita uma caraterização espectral das FLB onde foi comprovado que estas contem componentes espectrais em até 3,14 Hz. Tal valor, entretanto, ultrapassa os valores estabelecidos pela American Heart Association. Adicionalmente, foram implementados nove métodos para a eliminação de FLB os quais são: interpolação usando splines cúbicos, filtragem FIR, filtragem IIR, filtragem adaptativa LMS, filtragem de média móvel, análise de componentes independentes, interpolação e subtração de mediana sucessivas, decomposição em modos empíricos e filtragem wavelet. As técnicas implementadas foram avaliadas de forma qualitativa e quantitativa. Para a avaliação quantitativa foram usadas as seguintes métricas de similaridade: distância máxima absoluta, somatória do quadrado das distâncias e porcentagem da distância do erro médio quadrático. Foram realizados vários experimentos utilizando sinais de ECG sintéticos, ECG reais da QT Database, ruídos artificiais e ruídos reais da Noise Strees Test Database. Os melhores resultados foram obtidos com filtragem FIR passa-altas, com frequência de corte de 0,67 Hz.

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for 17.3 million deaths per year. The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a non-invasive technique widely used for the detection of cardiac diseases. To increase diagnostic sensitivity, ECG is acquired during exercise stress tests or in ambulatory way. Under these acquisition conditions the ECG is strongly affected by some types of noise, mainly by baseline (BL) wander. Currently in the literature, there are several methods for the elimination of BL, but no comparative study has been found that quantitatively evaluates these methods using the same signals. In this work a spectral characterization of the BL was made where it has been proven that these contain spectral components up to 3.14 Hz which exceeds the values established by the American Heart Association. We also implemented nine methods for the elimination of BL, which are interpolation using cubic splines, FIR filtering, IIR filtering, LMS adaptive filtering, moving average filter, independent component analysis, interpolation and successive median subtractions, decomposition in empirical modes and wavelet filtering. They were evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively. For the quantitative evaluation, the…

▼ Superovulation of donor cows, embryo transfer, and estrus synchronization of recipients are widely used technologies in the purebred cattle industry. Progress continues to be made to achieve efficient and economic use of these technologies. The first retrospective study was conducted to compare embryo production between a stimulation protocol using only Folltropin as the gonadotropin, and a stimulation protocol using Folltropin and Pluset. Beefmaster donor cows (n=12) were stimulated using both protocols over two stimulated cycles, one protocol each cycle. Both protocols used the same synchronization protocol with only the gonadatropin injections differing. The control protocol (Folltropin protocol) consisted of seven Folltropin injections over the course of 3.5 days. The treatment protocol (Folltropin + Pluset protocol) consisted of four Folltropin injections followed by three Pluset injections over the course of 3.5 days. The mean numbers of viable embryos did not differ between treatments (P>0.01) and were 9.33 and 6.58 for the control and treatment protocols, respectively. The proportion of viable embryos to total ova for each protocol was 0.49 and 0.48 for the control and treatment protocols, respectively (P > 0.10). No significant difference on embryo production was observed between the control and treatment protocols. The second retrospective study was performed to compare pregnancy rates after embryo transfer between Beefmaster recipients who received eCG during synchronization and recipients who did not receive eCG during synchronization. Due to the conditions of this study, statistical analysis could not be performed. Pregnancy rates are reported, but they are not statistically significant. Recipients in the control group (n=332) were synchronized with a protocol using a CIDR insert for seven days, a progesterone estradiol injection at the time of CIDR insertion, a prostaglandin (PG) injection at CIDR removal, and an estradiol injection the day after CIDR removal. Recipients in the treatment group (n=142) were synchronized using the same synchronization protocol as the control group, except eCG was administered five days after CIDR insertion. Pregnancy rates were 44.88 and 38.73 for the control and treatment groups, respectively. The addition of eCG to the synchronization protocol did not appear to be either beneficial or detrimental to pregnancy rate under the conditions of this study. In summary, the addition of Pluset to the stimulation protocol for donors was not detrimental to embryo production. The estrus synchronization protocol with eCG for recipients did not appear to be beneficial; however, a controlled studies are still warranted to further investigate the potential effects of recipient age, parity, body condition score, or breed effect on response to eCG.

▼ Approximately 75% of the health care yearly budget of public health systems around the world is spent on the treatment of patients with chronic diseases. This, along with advances on the medical and technological fields has given rise to the use of preventive medicine, resulting on a high demand of wireless medical systems (WMS) for patient monitoring and drug safety research. In this dissertation, the main design challenges and solutions for designing a WMS are addressed from system-level, using off-the-shell components, to circuit implementation. Two low-power oriented WMS aiming to monitor blood pressure of small laboratory animals (implantable) and cardiac-activity (12-lead electrocardiogram) of patients with chronic diseases (wearable) are presented. A power consumption vs. lifetime analysis to estimate the monitoring unit lifetime for each application is included. For the invasive/non-invasive WMS, in-vitro test benches are used to verify their functionality showing successful communication up to 2.1 m/35 m with the monitoring unit consuming 0.572 mA/33 mA from a 3 V/4.5 V power supply, allowing a two-year/ 88-hour lifetime in periodic/continuous operation. This results in an improvement of more than 50% compared with the lifetime commercial products. Additionally, this dissertation proposes transistor-level implementations of an ultra-low-noise/low-power biopotential amplifier and the baseband section of a wireless receiver, consisting of a channel selection filter (CSF) and a variable gain amplifier (VGA). The proposed biopotential amplifier is intended for electrocardiogram (ECG)/ electroencephalogram (EEG)/ electromyogram (EMG) monitoring applications and its architecture was designed focused on improving its noise/power efficiency. It was implemented using the ON-SEMI 0.5 ?m standard process with an effective area of 360 ?m2. Experimental results show a pass-band gain of 40.2 dB (240 mHz - 170 Hz), input referred noise of 0.47 Vrms, minimum CMRR of 84.3 dBm, NEF of 1.88 and a power dissipation of 3.5 ?W. The CSF was implemented using an active-RC 4th order inverse-chebyshev topology. The VGA provides 30 gain steps and includes a DC-cancellation loop to avoid saturation on the sub-sequent analog-to-digital converter block. Measurement results show a power consumption of 18.75 mW, IIP3 of 27.1 dBm, channel rejection better than 50 dB, gain variation of 0-60dB, cut-off frequency tuning of 1.1-2.29 MHz and noise figure of 33.25 dB. The circuit was implemented in the standard IBM 0.18 ?m CMOS process with a total area of 1.45 x 1.4 mm^(2). The presented WMS can integrate the proposed biopotential amplifier and baseband section with small modifications depending on the target signal while using the low-power-oriented algorithm to obtain further power optimization.

▼ Abstract Brugada syndrome is an inherited arrhythmia disorder that predisposes to sudden cardiac death. It is characterized by its distinct ECG pattern. The purpose of this thesis was to study the phenotype and genotype characteristics of subjects with Brugada syndrome type ECG. The first study population consisted of 2479 young male Air Force applicants and 542 healthy middle-aged subjects. The 12-lead ECG was analyzed to assess the prevalence and prognosis of Brugada pattern in Finnish population. The second population consisted of 168 patients with AF. The ECGs of the patients with family history of lone AF were analysed in order to characterize the ECG features of familial AF. The third population consisted of 200 patients with Brugada syndrome and their ECGs were analyzed for detection of distinct ECG characteristics. In a substudy, the H558R variant was genotyped and the clinical presentation of this variant was evaluated. The clinical characteristics were collected of 47 patients with induced Brugada ECG during fever or medication. The prevalence of type 2 or 3 Brugada ECG was 0.61% in the young population and 0.55% in the middle-aged Finnish population. In a retrospective analysis, none of the Brugada ECG carriers had died. In the AF study, the prevalence of type 2 or 3 Brugada ECG was significantly higher among the subjects with lone AF compared to the healthy controls (p < 0.001). Many of the Brugada ECG carriers had a family history (> 30% of first-degree relatives) of AF. In patients with Brugada syndrome, the prolonged QRS duration was associated with previous symptoms. The R allele carriers in H558R variant had a trend towards less symptoms (p = 0.067) and had less conduction disturbances in 12-lead ECG than the HH genotype carriers (p < 0.05 in all ECG analysis). Among the subjects with induced Brugada ECG, 51% exhibited arrhythmic symptoms during the medical condition that had provoked the ECG pattern. In conclusion, type 2 and 3 Brugada ECGs were found to be benign in the Finnish population since no mortality occurred during an extensive follow-up period. On the other hand, these ECG abnormalities seem to be a marker of familial AF. Among patients with the Brugada syndrome, a prolongation of QRS is associated with prior symptoms. The variant H558R R allele seems to be a protecting genetic modulator. Induced Brugada ECG is a medical emergency since the patients are at high risk of sudden cardiac death.

▼ Introduction: Approximately 12,000 new cases of spinal cord injury (SCI) are reported each year in the US. Currently, the most widely used method of assessing the recovery of voluntary capability after spinal cord injury is the American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AIS). However, this test is not objective and is not sensitive enough to detect small activities. Recent studies have been using surface electromyography (EMG) to develop objective and sensitive spinal cord injury (SCI) characterization protocols. EMG recordings from the trunk muscles are contaminated with the electrical activity of the heart (ECG, electrocardiography). Depending on the level, spinal cord injury may disrupt the control of the trunk muscles, and EMG recordings from these muscles will be very weak compared to those in non-injured individuals. The elimination of ECG artifacts play critical role in precise evaluation of the trunk muscles in these individuals. While common global digital filters may generally remove some of the ECG corruption from the signal, these filters also remove or alter valuable EMG signal, which makes the physiological importance of these signals irrelevant. Methods: Local filtering approach was developed to remove this ECG noise, without significantly altering the EMG signal. The local filtering approach uses externally recorded ECG signals, in a separate lead configuration, as a mask to locate the area of ECG spikes within the noisy EMG signal. The areas of the signal containing the ECG noise are decomposed into 128 sub-wavelets using custom-scaled Morlet Wavelet Transform. Sub-wavelets pertaining to ECG within the signal at the ECG spike location are then removed, and the signal is reconstructed to create a clean EMG signal. This process is analytically tested for robustness and accuracy, using customized validation metrics, on simulated phantom signals. It is compared with a global Morlet Wavelet filter that does not localize its filtering process on the ECG spikes. Results: It was found that the localized filtering significantly reduced the Root-Mean-Squared (RMS) of the area of the signal containing ECG spikes. The Localized Filter also significantly reduced the error produced from removal of EMG signal in the areas outside of ECG spikes compared to global filter. The proposed local filter doesn’t degrade the signal, even at low ECG amplitudes (~60% improvement), compared to the global filter, which destroys the signal at this low amplitude ECG (-100% improvement). The proposed local filter is also far more efficient at removing larger amplitude ECG (more critical) than the global filter, which has a narrow range of signals that it can efficiently remove ECG. Hence, the proposed local filter is more robust and clinical-ready than the global filter. Conclusion: Proposed approach is far superior in terms of ECG removal accuracy, and introduction of artifact error from processing, compared to comparable global filter. It provides a mean to improve analysis of EMG signals as a tool to assess recovery… Advisors/Committee Members: El-Baz, Ayman Sabry.

▼ Abstract Back ground of the study:Estimated 20 million peoples chew khat in the world. Khat chewing habit in Ethiopia and other countries is a socio-medical problem. Khatcan affect different body systems like cardiovascular system, central nervous system, and other systems.There are a few numbers of studies that concerned on the effect of khat on human physiology,because most of researchers concentrate on the pharmacokinetics of khat. These studies revealed on the acute effect of Catha edulis(khat) on electromyography, arterial blood pressure, heart rate and on electrocardiography. Materials and methods:We studied the effect of khaton electromyography, arterial blood pressure, heart rate, and electrocardiography in humans. Biopac MP 35was used to measure the above dependent variables. Physiological parameterchanges were studied before and after khat chewing. Allbaseline measurements were taken before chewing khat. Participants were provided with 100gm of pure palatable khat leaf and bottled water (soda). Post measurements were conducted 2 and half hrs. after they started chewing. They were abstained from taking any other stimulant during the study time. The EMG measurements taken were maximum force, mean force, Raw EMG, Integrated EMG and Fatigue time. These parameters were measured byusing hand dynamometer with their dominant hand. Systolic and Diastolic blood pressure,heart rate and ECG were also measured by using Biopac. Results: The maximum force generated by dominant arm skeletal muscles by study participants had shown significant increase after chewing khat.Its mean value was 30.80 ±1.3 before chewing and 34.38 ±1.30 kg after chewing(P<0.005). Mean force generated by dominant arm skeletal muscle also significantly increasedafter chewing.It was 28.35 ± 1.14 kg before and 32.21±1.11kg after chewing (P<0.005). Raw EMG also altered significantly after khat. It was 3.48 ± 0.16mv before and 3.92 ±0.19mv after khat consumption (P<0.05). In this study maximum and mean force generated by arm skeletal muscleafter consumption of khat showed a negative correlation with smoking and frequency of chewing.Heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure showed significant increment after participantswere stimulated by khat chewing. The mean Heart rate was 83.4 ±2.94 before and 98.55 ±2.31 beats min- X 1 after chewing (P <0.005).The mean systolic blood pressure was 106.45 ±2.17 before and 121.0 ± 2.90 mmHg after khat chewing (P <0.005).The meandiastolic blood pressure was 72.18 ± 1.74 before and 86.0 ± 1.92mmHg after chewing(P<0.005).TheECG recording showed significant decreased in PR and RR intervals after khat chewing.The mean PR interval was 0.176 ±0.007sbefore and 0.166 ±0.007 s after chewing (P <0.05).RR interval was 0.724±0.031s before and 0.590±0.039s afterkhat chewing (P <0.005). However, other ECG variables were not altered by acute khat consumption. Conclusion:This study showed thatkhat chewing increases maximum force and mean force generated by human arm… Advisors/Committee Members: .Tesfaye Tolessa(Dr.) (advisor).
