Cardiac physiology for biomedical engineering

Abstract

The multidisciplinary team provides research optimization and complementarity of ideas. Engineers working in biomedical engineering can make your work routine easier by sharing them with healthcare professionals who can help you understand physiology. The main objective is to address key points in cardiac physiology and arrhythmia pathophysiology in order to lessen the efforts of biomedical engineering professionals implementing implantable heart rate sensitive devices. It is a descriptive and critical theoretical analysis, which selected the main and current bibliographical references, directed to the fulfillment of the main objective. As a result, we obtained that the most important points are about the electrocardiogram graph and its association with cardiac bioimpedance as a good physiological parameter, also about the respiratory system that can influence cardiac health and the pathophysiology of arrhythmias that help to understand the need. to deploy. Pacemakers. We can conclude that early identification of the gradual ST segment distance may prevent future cardiac arrest and, in frequency-sensitive pacemakers, it is possible to identify from bioimpedance. There is a challenge in implantable devices in differentiating between normal cardiac changes and arrhythmias, and with the ability of biomedical engineering, the possibility of improving the performance of these devices is always real.
