In most cases this is equivalent to death. Please make sure that your system is functioning well and the the wires are connected to the patient. You have to correlate clinically. One should not declare the death hurriedly. Things can not be worst. Wait for hour or two before you declare the death.
What else can I help you with?
How do you record the electrical activity of the heart?
You record the electrical activity of the heart with a machine called ECG machine. Leads are attached to the limbs and then you have chest leads put on the chest wall in different positions to produce a tracing of the electrical activity called electrocardiograph
Is ventricular systole responsible for nerve impulse?
No, ventricular systole refers to the contraction of the ventricles in the heart. Nerve impulses originate from specialized cells called neurons in the nervous system. These impulses are responsible for transmitting signals throughout the body, including to the heart to regulate its activity.
The contraction of the ventricles is referred to as systole and the period of ventricular relaxation is called?
I believe that is called diastole, in contrast to systole, the contraction of the heart muscles.
What is the difference between an MRI and a EEG?
Both measure electrical activity -- the ECG in the heart and the EEG in the brain.An EEG is an electroencephalogram and an ECG also known as an EKG is an electrocardiogram. An EEG records brainwave/electrical activity. An ECG records the electrical activity that the heart produces.
What is a recording of electrical activity of brain called?
A recording of the electrical activity of the brain is called an electroencephalogram (EEG). This technique involves placing electrodes on the scalp to measure and record the electrical impulses generated by neuronal activity. EEG is commonly used in clinical settings to diagnose conditions such as epilepsy, sleep disorders, and other neurological issues.
What causes absence seizure?
Absence seizures are implicated with an abnormal imbalance of certain chemicals in the brain that modulate nerve cell activity (one of these neurotransmitters is called GABA, which functions as an inhibitor).
What is electrical activity of the heart is called an?
The electrical activity of the heart is called an electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG). This activity is generated by the heart's conduction system, which includes structures like the sinoatrial node, atrioventricular node, and the bundle of His. An ECG records the electrical impulses that trigger heartbeats, reflecting the heart's rhythm and overall health. It is a critical tool for diagnosing various cardiac conditions.
What is the absence of sound called?
The absence of sound is called silence.Quiet or quietness is also the absence of sound.
What is the medical term meaning procedure to assess the electrical activity of a patient's heart over a 24-hour period of normal activity?
The 24 ambulatory monitoring of the heart is called Holter monitoring
What is a Left Ventricular Assist Device called?
LVAD
What is One pumping motion from the heart called?
Ventricular
Why does your pacemaker shock you?
A pacemaker may deliver a shock to restore normal heart rhythm if it detects a dangerous arrhythmia, such as ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation. These conditions can lead to ineffective heart pumping and potentially life-threatening situations. The shock, delivered through a function called defibrillation, helps reset the heart's electrical activity, allowing it to return to a normal rhythm. It's a critical function to help prevent cardiac arrest and ensure proper blood circulation.
