The controllability of cardiac rhythm in elderly
Introduction: Recent reports have shown that rare fluctuations in cardiac cycles are ‘forgotten’ quickly in healthy individuals and it is possible to quantify the “memory length” of a physiological time-series using an inverse statistical approach. Methods: In the present study, we assessed the effect of aging on memory length in cardiac rhythm. Results: There was a long...
متن کاملNeuro-fuzzy Classifier for Cardiac Arrythmias Recognition
The premature ventricular contraction (PVC) and the premature atrial contraction (PAC) are cardiac arrhythmias which are widely encountered in the cardiologic field. They can be detected using the electrocardiogram signal parameters. We use in this work a Neuro-fuzzy approach to identify these abnormal beats. To achieve this objective we have developed a Neuro-Fuzzy Classifier (NFCL), its perfo...
متن کاملThe Termination of Cardiac Arrythmias by Direct Current Shock.
THE use of DC, shock in the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias has been pioneered by Lown and his associates 1(1962). We are reporting our first 100 patients treated by this method. For those unfamiliar with this technique a short historical and technical introduction is appended. Introduction In 1899 Prevost and Batelli showed that the passage of a small current through the heart muscle (shock) ...
متن کاملcardiac arrythmias in acute and chronic renal failure
cardiac arrythmias are frequent complications in acute and chronic renal failure and they may well account for sudden unexplained death in these patients. based upon our recent study, we strongly believe that among other causative factors, focal degeneration of myocardium is the commonest and the most potentially dangerous cause of cardiac arrythmias. we suggest in emergency instances, ouabain ...
متن کامل[Cardiac surgery and the elderly].
Cardiac surgery continues to play a key role in our therapeutic arsenal against many heart diseases. This is still the case despite the recent and striking progress regarding specific drugs or different forms of cardiac intervention. However, in relation to the elderly patient, this therapeutic modality is one of the fields where agebased discrimination has been practiced for years, that is, th...
