Differences in oral airway dimensions of a male subject, at 3 flow levels, were analyzed. The physiological data, then, was applied to a mathematical model of airway collapse, and the coefficient of collapse (C/sub c/) was calculated. The collapsible segment was approximately 10 cm in length, and was located between the oro-pharyngeal junction (OPJ), and the glottis; the entire segment was susceptible to area decrease at a flow rate of 500 ml/s. C/sub c/ calculation indicated that full collapse would not occur during our experimental conditions, which was validated by pharyngometry.","PeriodicalId":393788,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 23rd Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"175 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125938426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper describes efforts to develop a methodology for rapid, portable, cost effective measurement of pulse wave velocity utilizing only an electrocardiogram (EGG), continuous wave (CW) Doppler, and a computer based data acquisition board. Preliminary results showed that the pulse wave velocity from the aortic root to the radial artery could be deduced with access only to distal portions of the upper extremities, thus minimizing the subject's inconvenience, and making the measurement very suitable for screening applications. In the pilot study reported here, aortic-radial pulse wave transit time was found to be 294.2 ms averaged over 9 pulses with the standard error of the sample mean=9.22 ms. The pulse wave velocity was 217.5 cm/s with standard error of the sample mean=7.07 cm/s.","PeriodicalId":393788,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 23rd Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125343665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ischemia causes changes in tissue impedance that can be detected by impedance spectroscopic measurements. This technique has numerous advantages over existing ischemia monitoring methods: it is non-invasive and suitable for long term and continuous use. To fully develop this method, we experimentally investigated the relationships between ischemia and tissue impedance. For this purpose, in-vivo animal experiments were conducted, Results show complex, nonlinear relationships between tissue impedance and ischemia. Previous studies identified R/sub 0/ (DC impedance) as the parameter most sensitive to ischemia. However, R/sub 0/ variations are quite non-specific, therefore R/sub 0/ cannot be quantitatively correlated to ischemia. In this paper, we present an analysis which indicates that ischemia induced variations of the tissue time constant /spl tau/ are well correlated to R/sub 0/ and pH variations. /spl tau/ has a better sensitivity and a higher level of specificity to ischemia variations, compared to R/sub 0/. This is evidence that /spl tau/ is a powerful indicator of tissue ischemia.","PeriodicalId":393788,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 23rd Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124062624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, a collective network property, the robust entrainment of activity between neurons, leads to several interesting network level phenomena not seen in attractor networks with conventional neuron models. These include phase-locked bursting patterns of neural activity, the temporal segmentation of mixed pattern input cues, and the functionality to serve as a subunit for the storage of temporal sequences. Given the previously established accuracy of the utilized single neuron model as a reduced order approximation of the Hodgkin-Huxley equations, these findings are well suited for comparison with their biological correlates.","PeriodicalId":393788,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 23rd Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133866550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These dynamic analyses were compared to the mean values of respiratory parameters commonly used by clinicians.

A leading symptom of CFS is that patients report critical reductions in their levels of physical activity due to fatigue related symptoms. We have developed a rodent model, using rats, hamsters, and mice, that enables us to investigate fatigue and physiological rhythms in an integrated framework. The animal's activity is one measure of great importance in the study of these rhythms and chronic fatigue. To monitor a free-ranging rodent's activity we utilize two complementing methods: first, is an infra-red photo beam to detect and count turns of a running wheel, and second, is a force sensor located under the housing tub to detect general motion. Both methods are used in the animal's home cage and are made to be low cost, compared to commercial units, for implementation on many animals.","PeriodicalId":393788,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 23rd Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114690147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Often when a researcher is conducting an experiment that requires biological signals to be analyzed, the number of variables are reduced by keeping all of the subject's rate of breaths per minute (BPM) the same. Presently there exists both software and hardware that serves the purpose for this task. This project has combined both of these to build a new apparatus using the latest technology. Instead of a hardware device which is difficult to manipulate once constructed, the software package LabVIEW (Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench) Is used to construct this device. LabVIEW is a icon driven package which parallels actual electrical components. If the situation arises in which changes need to be made, they can be performed relatively easily assuming there is some knowledge of the software at hand. The convenience of this arises because manipulations can be made without the use of a soldering iron or any other tool with the exception of a mouse.","PeriodicalId":393788,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 23rd Northeast Bioengineering Conference","volume":"196 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115977871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
