Performance significantly worse by about 50 per cent among the cerebral palsied children, a correlation between performance and chronological age amongst all subjects, and unexpected discrepancies between performance on the saccadic and the pursuit tasks, have been found. These findings are relevant to the study of the oculo-motor system as one of the control systems in the body.","PeriodicalId":86470,"journal":{"name":"IRE transactions on bio-medical electronics","volume":"9 1","pages":"112-115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1962-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TBMEL.1962.4322974","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62994076","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}

The code sheets are filled in at the time of examination of the patient and this ensures that uniform data are obtained. For the most part, the system consists of graded scales. These cover most of the information which is routinely obtained in a clinical interview and examination. An effort has been made to assign qualitatively different phenomena to separate IBM columns so that direct correlations can be carried out between most of the columns without the need of prior sorting on specific items. The system deals specifically with information related to seizure patients and behavior disordered children but the basic outline is such that it can easily be adapted to any other neurological condition one may wish to study.","PeriodicalId":86470,"journal":{"name":"IRE transactions on bio-medical electronics","volume":"9 1","pages":"61-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1962-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TBMEL.1962.4322951","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62994467","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}

The ECG leads were recorded on magnetic tape. The analog signal was sampled 625 times per second and that data was converted to a form suitable for a general-purpose digital computer. Criteria for clinically significant voltage fluctuations of the signal from the baseline within specified time intervals were determined. The computer was programmed to identify those fluctuations automatically. For an output, the computer produces a set of measurements of ECG waveforms from one cardiac cycle in any random 5-sec. portion of a lead. The program can be expanded to include any measurement, but for present purposes it permits determination of amplitude of P, Q, R, S and T waves, ST and PQ segments, and QT and RR intervals. Variables are measured to an accuracy of 1 part in 1000. Measurements conform to those obtainable by careful hand measurement of magnified tracings of the original records. Automatically derived data can be simultaneously used in computer-programmed statistical analysis to permit classification of the tracings into categories of normality or abnormality. The entire automated system can thus become a diagnostic aid to the physician. This paper deals with one phase of a project directed at the development of an automated system to aid in the diagnosis of heart disease.","PeriodicalId":86470,"journal":{"name":"IRE transactions on bio-medical electronics","volume":"9 1","pages":"23-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1962-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1109/TBMEL.1962.4322946","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62993657","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}
