an electrocardiogram (ecg) leads physicians to diagnose many potentially life-threatening cardiac, metabolic, electrolyte, and toxicological conditions. this study was designed to evaluate the competency of emergency medicine residents (emrs) in comparison with cardiologists in the interpretation of ecg when an interpretation checklist is used. this clinical trial was done in the emergency ward...

Background: Fetal electrocardiography is a developing field that provides valuable information on the fetal health during pregnancy. By early diagnosis and treatment of fetal heart problems, more survival chance is given to the infant.Objective: Here, we extract fetal ECG from maternal abdominal recordings and detect R-peaks in order to recognize fetal heart rate. On the next step, we find a be...

background melissa officinalis, an herbal drug, is well known and frequently applied in traditional and modern medicine. yet, there is inadequate information regarding its effects on electrical properties of the heart. the present study attempted to elucidate the effects of melissa officinalis aqueous extract on electrocardiogram (ecg) in rat. objectives ecg is an easy, fast and valuable tool t...

Background: Presynchronization could enhance fertility in timed breeding programs. The best presynchronization method has to justify biological requirements and to provide practical and economic advantages. OBJECTIVES: Present study investigated the effectiveness of presynchronization with equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) before ovsynch (eCG-ovsynch) compared to conventional presynch-ovsynch...

in this study, we aimed to investigate reproductive performance in estrus-induced zandi ewes treated with equine chorionic gonadotrophin (ecg) injection in combination with prostaglandin f2α (pgf2α)and gonadotrophin releasing hormone (gnrh) during non-breeding season. the estrous cycle was synchronized using controlled internal drug release (cidr) for 12 days. the ewes were randomly assigned to...
