most fetal heart rate patterns can be interpreted accurately so that management decisions can be made correctly. how-ever, few fetal heart rate patterns are so ambiguous that the obstetricians cannot interpret them precisely. a 27-year-old woman at 38 weeks' gestation in her first pregnancy was admitted with heavy vaginal bleeding and decrease in fetal movements. fetal status was indeterminate ...

objective(s): in this study, the effects of crocin against subchronic toxicity of diazinon (dzn) on systolic blood pressure (sbp) and heart rate (hr) were evaluated in rats. materials and methods: rats were equally divided into 7 groups; control (corn oil), dzn (15 mg/kg), crocin (each group received 12.5, 25 or 50 mg/kg crocin plus dzn), vitamin e (200 iu/kg plus dzn) and crocin (50 mg/kg) tre...

background and aim: low back pain is a common complaint in communities which has negative effects on different aspects of life. an effective method for reduction of low back pain complications is foot reflexology. foot reflexology has a positive effect in reduction of complications in low back pain. foot reflexology reduces respiratory rate, blood pressure and pulse rate. this study is an inves...

this study was conducted to assess the incidence of abnormalities of ventricular depolarization (late potentials) in children with sinus rhythm after open heart surgery and their relation to spontaneous ventricular tachycardia. open heart surgery, particularly operations involving ventriculotomy, may predispose patients to the development of ventricular tachycardia (vt) or ventricular fibrillat...

Heart-rate monitoring plays a critical role in personal healthcare management. A low-cost, noninvasive, and user-friendly heart-rate monitoring system is highly desirable. Here, a self-powered wireless body sensor network (BSN) system is developed for heart-rate monitoring via integration of a downy-structure-based triboelectric nanogenerator (D-TENG), a power management circuit, a heart-rate s...

Abstract Introduction Stressful conditions can impact our judgement and increase the risk of adverse events such as workplace accidents, falls, automobile collisions, among others. Sleep quality has also been shown to influence stress responses heart rate variability (HRV) proved be a useful indicator in variety scenarios. Therefore, wearable devices monitors may able reduce by measuring respon...
