The Genesis of the First Clinical Electrocardiogram: The rise of a cardiac breakthrough that marked the start and discovery of many cardiac related diseases
Written by: STUDENT NAME
HIST 285-001
DATE
Introduction:
As a biomedical engineering student, I’ve always been intrigued by the phenomenal medical technologies that exist today. Many of these medical technologies were created earlier in the years and have advanced to possess several beneficial features and serve an essential role in the medical field today. One of these medical technologies is the Electrocardiogram, commonly referred to as ECG. Willem Einthoven was a Dutch doctor who invented the first practical electrocardiogram in 1903. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1924 for his revolutionizing contribution to the medical field. An electrocardiogram is a device that records the electrical activity of the heart over a period of time. This is done through the use of leads or electrodes that are placed on the body to detect small electrical changes on the skin that are a result of the heart returning back from it’s contracted state after each heartbeat. Prior to Einthoven’s time, it was known that heartbeats produced electrical signals but no instrument could measure this without placing electrodes directly on the heart. In this paper I will explore the rise of the ECG. I will start off with a brief description of the anatomy and importance of the heart muscle. I will then proceed to explain the significance and purpose of the ECG and then continue to describe how Willem Einthoven went about creating the first ECG. Understanding the origin of the ECG is essential as they are currently used and relied on heavily by physicians and others in the medical field. They provide us with convenient, efficient, and accurate insight into the health of a patient’s heart.

This document provides a synopsis for a proposed dissertation on developing a real-time multi-channel wireless health monitoring system. The system will monitor electrocardiogram (ECG), blood pressure, body temperature, and blood pH from patients. The data will be transmitted wirelessly and viewed by doctors on a computer interface. Doctors will be able to select a patient and view their health parameters in real-time. They will also be able to send a patient's data to specialists for advice when needed. The proposed work will involve collecting sensor data, transmitting it wirelessly, developing processing and display software, and evaluating the system.
This document discusses advances in medical devices and electronics over the past 100 years. It begins by describing three important existing technologies from 100 years ago - the stethoscope, electrocardiography, and X-rays. Over the following century, diagnostic devices became more quantitative through technologies like the phonocardiogram and electrocardiograph. Therapeutic devices also advanced, with developments in cardiac pacing and imaging allowing for minimally invasive procedures. The future promises further integration of devices and electronic health records to improve global healthcare access.

Design of an internet of things based real-time monitoring system for retired...journalBEEI
The main aim of this article is to design a monitoring center for collecting and evaluating the physiological function of retired patients in nursing homes. The system should be able to collect the information of body heat, heart rate, blood oxygen, orientation, and sleep time in the form of the little bracelet. The evaluating part of the system with the program can be placed into personal computer (PC) which can provide a user-friendly interface and easy managing. The program can display all needed information of the patient from previous days or months in the form of the graphs and the nursing person can have the view of the patient´s physiological health. The evaluation and the collection of the data from each patient are done only on the card and the computer is only a device for live-view and managing. In case of the power failure, the monitoring system will be still operating normally due to the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in the form of the battery. It means that the system will operate even if the PC is powered off. The system also has several external communication interfaces like wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi), ethernet, and general packet radio service (GPRS) which provides an external connection.
1. Researchers developed a portable ECG device using dry capacitive electrodes and a driven right leg circuit to reject common-mode interference.
2. Simulation and testing of the electronic interface showed high input impedance, suitable common-mode rejection, and readable P, QRS, and T waves.
3. The developed device uses an ESP32 microcontroller to digitize and wirelessly transmit ECG signals, demonstrating the potential for multi-lead wearable ECG monitoring.
This Advanced Haematology course focuses on various anemia types, Leukemia, hematological disorders, chromosomal studies related to these disorders, and the use of radioisotopes in haematology.

CHINA’S GEO-ECONOMIC OUTREACH IN CENTRAL ASIAN COUNTRIES AND FUTURE PROSPECTjpsjournal1
The rivalry between prominent international actors for dominance over Central Asia's hydrocarbon
reserves and the ancient silk trade route, along with China's diplomatic endeavours in the area, has been
referred to as the "New Great Game." This research centres on the power struggle, considering
geopolitical, geostrategic, and geoeconomic variables. Topics including trade, political hegemony, oil
politics, and conventional and nontraditional security are all explored and explained by the researcher.
Using Mackinder's Heartland, Spykman Rimland, and Hegemonic Stability theories, examines China's role
in Central Asia. This study adheres to the empirical epistemological method and has taken care of
objectivity. This study analyze primary and secondary research documents critically to elaborate role of
china’s geo economic outreach in central Asian countries and its future prospect. China is thriving in trade,
pipeline politics, and winning states, according to this study, thanks to important instruments like the
Shanghai Cooperation Organisation and the Belt and Road Economic Initiative. According to this study,
China is seeing significant success in commerce, pipeline politics, and gaining influence on other
governments. This success may be attributed to the effective utilisation of key tools such as the Shanghai
Cooperation Organisation and the Belt and Road Economic Initiative.
The CBC machine is a common diagnostic tool used by doctors to measure a patient's red blood cell count, white blood cell count and platelet count. The machine uses a small sample of the patient's blood, which is then placed into special tubes and analyzed. The results of the analysis are then displayed on a screen for the doctor to review. The CBC machine is an important tool for diagnosing various conditions, such as anemia, infection and leukemia. It can also help to monitor a patient's response to treatment.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
