Electrode Jelly in Electrocardiography.

The normal electrocardiogram.

O NE of the most difficult tasks which confronts the w orker in the life sciences is to define a normal. The difficulty is compounded when the measurement to be made is affected by many variables which differ in importance from time to time. These remarks apply to the electrocardiographer, and to the normal electrocardiogram. Some variables which affect the electrocardiogram are quite well know...

Anaesthetic management of an infant with epidermolysis bullosa undergoing inguinal hernia repair.

Epidermolysis bullosa is a group of inherited disorders characterized by blistering of the skin as a result of minor trauma. We managed an infant with epidermolysis bullosa undergoing inguinal hernia repair. Anaesthesia was induced with oxygen/nitrous oxide mixture and sevoflurane. Oral tracheal intubation was done with a lubricated laryngoscope blade with KY jelly using atracurium 0.5 mg/kg an...

Tap water instead of electrode jelly for electrocardiographic recording.

A New Clip Electrode for Clinical Electrocardiography.

IN every cardiac emergency the application of the electrodes for taking electrocardio-grams should require the least possible time. Time saved may be a life saved. The prompt establishment of the presence of and the exact type of cardiac mechanism disorder by electro-cardiographic tracings, is a prerequisite to effective therapy. The electrocardiogram must often be taken while external cardiac ...
