How to correctly place ECG leads to perform a 12 lead ECG on a human subject, for cardiovascular, physiological, and pharmacological research.

James Elworthy, Multimedia Designer at ADInstruments and Kait Mikes, Biomedical Sales Engineer at ADInstruments, joined Dr Trevor Day on an intrepid journey to Mt. Everest Base Camp.

Bradycardia is an interesting condition which is both a risk factor and an example of the human body’s amazing ability to adapt to an individual’s lifestyle - a lowered heart rate balances the increased stroke volume of a training athlete’s heart to keep cardiac output optimized. New research suggests a cause for this effect in the highly trained athlete.

This study investigated the occurrence of cardiovascular deconditioning among astronauts during long-duration space flight (up to 180 days).

The Faculty for Undergraduate Neuroscience (FUN) Equipment Loan Program (2011) has awarded Dr. Glena Andrews a 2-year ADInstruments equipment loan for her proposal entitled "Exploring Cardiovascular Functioning in Students Engaged in Behavior Changes". Dr. Andrews currently teaches psychology at the Department of Behavioral Sciences and Cultural Studies at Northwest Nazarene University. A clinical psychologist whose training has primarily focused on neuropsychology, Dr. Andrews has been hard at work establishing student courses that cover Experimental Design, Abnormal Psychology, the Biological Foundations of Behavior and more.

Using PowerLab systems, Dr. Maureen McDonald, from McMaster University in Canada is researching more realistic (but equally effective) methods for healthy individuals to adhere to a new exercise recommendation of 60-90 minutes per day. Dr. McDonald’s PhD student is investigating the effects of different exercise bursts with different durations for the treatment of individuals with cardiovascular disease.

As ADInstruments celebrates 20 years of innovation, our customers continue to find innovative applications for PowerLab data acquisition systems and LabChart software. This month, read about how a group of Canadian researchers are investigating how life on the International Space Station affects astronauts' cardiovascular and cerebrovascular physiology.

New study shows lower heart rate and blood pressure variability in pre-term babies, pointing to autonomic maturation deficits as a possible risk factor for SIDS.
