چکیده

Cardiac abnormalities are one of the main problems present in newborns. They can cause fetal death. If they are detected in time, it is possible to cure or to take all necessary precautions during childbirth. Our work proposes a method for detecting cardiac arrhythmias in the fetus by using digital filters and discrete wavelet transforms. On the basis of signals from the database DaIS, our method detects the wave of fetal QRS, in the first level of DWT decomposition and computes the fetal heart rate FHR. A comparison between the FHRr, derived of the reference signal FECG and our results, shows the performance of the proposed method.

گزارش یک مورد نادر رابدومیوما در قلب جنین: گزارش موردی

Background: The primary manifestation of cardiac tumors in embryonic period is a very rare condition. Cardiac rhabdomyomas most frequently arise in the ventricular myocardium, they may also occur in the atria and the epicardial surface. In spite of its benign nature, the critical location of the tumor inside the heart can lead to lethal arrhythmias and chamber obstruction. Multiple rhabdomyomas...

Diagnosis and treatment of fetal arrhythmia.

AIMS Detection and careful stratification of fetal heart rate (FHR) is extremely important in all pregnancies. The most lethal cardiac rhythm disturbances occur during apparently normal pregnancies where FHR and rhythm are regular and within normal or low-normal ranges. These hidden depolarization and repolarization abnormalities, associated with genetic ion channelopathies cannot be detected b...

The prevalence of cardiac arrhythmias in horses of the Sanandaj area

Cardiac arrhythmias, caused by disorders in the generation and transmission of cardiac impulses, is included among the heart disorders that cause inefficient blood circulation. The most commonly-used method for diagnosing this disorder is electrocardiography. In this study, we aimed to identify and diagnose different types of arrhythmia prevalent among the seemingly-healthy horses of Sanandaj C...

Preconditioning effects of oxytocin in reducing cardiac arrhythmias in a rat heart regional ischemia-reperfusion model

Abstract Introduction: Occurrence of cardiac arrhythmias and myocardial infarction are two main deleterious events that are caused by ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in the heart. Cardiac preconditioning represents the most potent method of rescuing heart tissue from undergoing irreversible ischemic damage. The aim of the present study was to evaluate oxytocin (OT) cardioprotective effect...
