Filter by:The objective of this study is to determine the effect of music therapy during dialysis on: depression, anxiety, quality of life, blood pressure, heart rate, medication compliance, compliance with dialysis treatment, number of hospitalizations, pain level, and energy level.
The objective of this study is to assess the accuracy of the Apple Watch 4 Series watch in generating an ECG that is suitable for determination of heart rhythm compared to rhythms monitored via telemetry. Secondary objective is to assess the accuracy of the Apple Watch 4 series watch in identifying atrial fibrillation when it is present.
In Western countries, every sixth person in their lifetime and 15,000 people in Finland have a new stroke each year. About every fourth stroke is based on cardiac embolism. Atrial fibrillation causes formation of thrombi in the left atrium with ensuing embolization in the cerebral and peripheral circulation. This study investigates the suitability of measurement techniques and new calculation methods used in sport/wellness technology for the screening and diagnosis of atrial fibrillation and other arrhythmias. New measurement technologies, the one-time ECG measurement and pulse wristband measurement, are studied for their characteristics, data quality and rhythm recognition. Identifying latent arrhythmias with new self-monitoring technologies can significantly reduce the number of strokes (the latent arrhythmias causes about 25% of strokes). The research will be accomplished in cooperation with the Kuopio University Hospital Emergency Department, the Heart Center, the Department of Applied Physics of the University of Eastern Finland and Heart2Save Ltd. The results of the research project will be published in the scientific journals of medicine and medical technology and will be presented at scientific conferences of the respective fields. The research results of the project can be utilized by all companies in the medical technology industry, in particular companies that produce ECG measuring instruments and companies that produce rhythm recognition software.
This study aims to compare heart rate variation, cognitive load, and learning outcomes of novel image-based virtual reality with traditional video in learning for otolaryngology. Half of participants will receive image-based virtual reality learning, while the other half will receive video-based learning.
Contextualization: Exercise is a common triggers of bronchospasm in patients with asthma and healthy subjects. To prevent these symptoms frequently they have to use Short-Acting Beta2-Agonists. However, the cardiovascular effects of salbutamol during and after exercise remain poorly known. Objective: To evaluate the effect of salbutamol on heart rate and blood pressure during exercise in patients with moderate or severe asthma and healthy individuals. Methods: A randomized, double-blind, crossover study will be conducted which 13 individuals with moderate or severe persistent asthma and 13 healthy individuals aged between 20 to 59 years. Patients will perform a maximal effort test on 2 nonconsecutive days, with either 400mcg Salbutamol or 4 placebo puffs. The order of use of placebo or salbutamol will be drawn. During the protocol, heart rate, blood pressure, perception of exertion and peak expiratory flow will be monitored.
