| Popis: | Detailed investigation of abnormal heart rhythms requires electrical stimulators that can deliver sophisticated sequences of stimuli to the heart under controlled laboratory conditions. A dual-channel stimulator that provides an appropriate hardware interface between a controlling microcomputer and the patient is described. The computer gives the system power and flexibility and, most importantly, provides a suitable user interface. The hardware interface is designed to have an ergonomic division between set-up and run-time tasks. Both software and hardware are discussed, and clinical examples of typical usage of the stimulator are given. |
