High-dimensional time irreversibility analysis of human interbeat intervals.

Time irreversibility is a subject of increasing interest in biomedicine. However, measurements of this property have been limited to a two-dimensional state space and few effective methods for high-dimensional time irreversibility testing have been reported. Using a strategy based on multiple bidimensional tests, we propose an extension of the traditional low-dimensional method for the estimation of time irreversibility in a high-dimensional state space.

[A wireless ECG monitor based on ARM].

This paper presents a novel monitor which uses ARM controller AT91SAM7S64 as its main processor, LCM (Liquid Crystal Display Module) for displaying ECG waves, SD (Secure Digital memory) card for data storage and RF module PTR8000 for radio data transmission. This portable monitor boasts alarm function for abnormality and can provide dynamic ECG monitoring for patients.

[A design of a portable acquistion system for autonomic nervous function data].

In this paper, a design of the portable acquisition system for autonomic nervous function data based on the microcontroller is introduced. The system contains an electrocardiogram amplifier and an AD convertor, using SD memory card as its storage device and thus it can record data for a longer time and exchange data with PC easily. The system with a simple structure realizes its miniaturization and low energy consumption.
