Using electrocardiography (ECG), alterations in the activity of the sympathetic nervous system can be measured using HRV analysis.
Recording peripheral nerve traffic is a main component of many autonomic studies as these signals reveal how the nervous system directs organ regulation and function. Using either acute, anesthetized preparations or implanted wireless telemetry - and whether recording from the vagal, splanchnic, lumbar or another nerve location - LabChart can help isolate SNA bursts from background noise and electrical and movement artifacts.
If your research looks at the neural control of respiration, our gas analyzer is ideal for studies using rodents.
With flexible research solutions, you can analyze your nerve recordings in depth and in conjunction with any additional physiological data, all on one platform.
In conjunction with our solutions shown below, any device with an analog output (+/- 10V) can be connected to a PowerLab data acquisition system for synchronization of the event in LabChart, giving you even more flexibility and the ability to integrate your data streams in one place.
All of our hardware is backed by the appropriate safety certification standards. More information on safety standards.

Using electrocardiography (ECG), alterations in the activity of the sympathetic nervous system can be measured using HRV analysis.
Record the electrical activity of the brain that occurs between pairs of electrodes in contact with an animal's scalp and which represents the underlying neural activity.
Measure electrical stimulation and pacing in animal subjects.
Electromyography (EMG) is the study of muscle electrical activity. Quantify muscle movement, activity, effort, and fatigue.
Extracellular recordings are recordings of electrical potentials produced by a cell, either in extracellular fluid near the cell of interest, or non-invasively. These types of recordings can be divided into three main groups; single/multiple unit recordings, whole nerve recordings, and field potentials.
HRV analysis is ideal on an ECG recording but any recording that picks up a subjects pulse will work i.e: NIBP, Finger Pulse, Pulse Oximetry.
Record blood pressure directly at the source to analyze a wide range of pressures - including systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressure alongside heart rate and interbeat interval - for comprehensive cardiovascular and physiological research.
Automatically calculate and display ventilatory parameters from measurements of O2, CO2 and air flow. The changes in gas mixture between inhalation and exhalation, combined with a measurement of respiratory flow, can be used to estimate metabolic rate and measure calorimetry.
ADInstruments systems provide an integrated solution to advance life science research. With the combination of LabChart or LabChart Lightning analysis software and a PowerLab data acquisition unit, you have the flexibility to collect and synchronize a wide range of signals for analysis. We also offer a range of LabChart compatible solutions able to stream directly in LabChart.
