  • A body position influence on ECG derived respiration

    An influence of a human body position on ECG derived respiration (EDR) signal is presented in the paper. Examinations were performed during deep, suspended and normal breathing for eight people in four different body positions. EDR and thoracic impedance signals were compared using correlation and standard deviation coefficients. Obtained results have shown that it is possible to monitor breath activity of people being in different...

  • A novel sensor for measuring temperature profile during the thermoablation
    Publication

    - Year 2017

    Abstract — A novel approach for monitoring a temperature distribution inside a tissue during thermoablation is presented in the paper. A thermal profile is measured using a set of serially connected thermistors each bypassed by a capacitor. This technique allows a two-wire and simultaneous multi- point measurements using a multi-frequency measurement of electrical impedance. It is...

  • A scale with ECG measurements capability for home cardiac monitoring

    Presented device -a scale developed for enabling extra measurements, in addition to body weight and composition, the electrical activity of the heart (electrocardiogram - ECG) and the level of oxygen saturation in the blood SaO2. Electrical activity is recorded in the form of six leads, socalled - limb leads. The device allows measurement of all standard limb leads and without the need for additional procedures. ECG, although the...

  • Analysis of Properties of an Active Linear Gesture Sensor

    Basic gesture sensors can play a significant role as input units in mobile smart devices. However, they have to handle a wide variety of gestures while preserving the advantages of basic sensors. In this paper a user-determined approach to the design of a sparse optical gesture sensor is proposed. The statistical research on a study group of individuals includes the measurement of user-related parameters like the speed of a performed...

  • Capacitively coupled ECG measurements - a CMRR circuit improvement

    A typical galvanic-connected electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement system utilizes two signal’s electrodes and a third one in driven-right-leg (DRL) circuit for improving a common-mode rejection ratio(CMRR) of the acquisition system. In capacitive-coupled ECG similar techniques are used, however it is expected, that the utilized DRL subsystem is formed using a capacitive coupling approach, too. An improvement of the acquisition system...

  • A review of methods of blood supply to organs of the gastrointestinal tract. State of art
    Publication

    - EJSO-EUR J SURG ONC - Year 2023

    The correct assessment of blood supply is essential to eliminate possible postoperative complications. Re-anastomosis of the gastrointestinal tract after its resection must be preceded by the analysis of blood supply to the anastomosed fragments. It is important that the blood supply assessment procedure is reliable but also non-absorbing and, if possible, short. It should also be possible to repeat the procedure due to the need...

  • A Special Section on Intelligent User Interfaces in Healthcare (IUIH)

    A concept of interface has evolved from the first appearance in the form of a command line interface to the established use of direct manipulation or WIMP (windows, icons, menus and pointing) interfaces in nearly all applications. Intelligent user interfaces (IUI) form a subfield of Human-Computer Interaction research. Optimal human-computer interactions are defined as ones where users are able to perform complex tasks more quickly...

  • A telemedical and an outpatient thoracic impedance measurements - a validation algorithm of the electrodes placement
    Publication

    - Year 2015

    This paper presents the algorithm for validation of electrodes locations for the thoracic impedance measurements. In particular the presented algorithm was designed to perform the telemetric sleep apnea monitoring. One of the problems, during the clinical tests of a developed device, was to preserve the repeatability of measurements. It strongly depended on the appropriate electrodes placement on the examined person’s thorax. It...

  • Color transformation methods for dichromats

    Color blindness is a serious perception problem. Suffering individuals cannot understand messages, which are carrying by many images, especially those, distributed by WWW. In this paper we are proposing three image processing methods to enhance image recognition and understanding by persons with dichromacy. Color difference image is introduced to represent color perception dissimilarity. Two color transformation methods are presented....
