Autonomic Nervous System – Human

Record a wide variety of ANS signals such as EDA/GSR, temperature, ECG, pulse, respiration, airflow, nerve conduction, continuous blood pressure, and continuous noninvasive cardiac output (using bioimpedance techniques) to demonstrate changes in the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems. Use the Polygraph lesson for simultaneous heart rate, electrodermal activity (GSR), and respiration rate.

Autonomic Nervous System – Psychophys.

Use the BSL system to record changes in the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system. Acquire a wide variety of ANS signals such as EDA/GSR, skin temperature, ECG, pulse, respiration, airflow, nerve conduction, continuous blood pressure, and continuous noninvasive cardiac output (bioimpedance method). Simultaneous graphing shows heart rate, electrodermal activity (GSR) and respiration rates. After the […]

Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)

Biopac Science Lab comes with one lesson focused on the autonomic nervous system (ANS): Lesson 9 Biofeedback Lesson 9 explores the concept of biofeedback training and its effect on autonomic control of heart rate. An onscreen, thermometer-style heart rate display rises and falls with changes in heart rate, allowing students to become conscious of their […]

Biomechanics – BME

The Student Lab System has a comprehensive ability to monitor gait and other mechanical responses. The system works with goniometers, accelerometers and heel-toe strike transducers. Biopotential signals such as EMG can be synchronously recorded. Use the hand dynamometer and accelerometer to measure isotonic and isometric performance. Goniometers are available for evaluating one or two degrees […]

Biomechanics – Exercise

Students use the reflex hammer in conjunction with EMG recordings to compare responses and reflex actions. For advanced studies, add angle of limb movement as a subject performs a variety of tasks. The system has transducers for recording heel and toe strike and acceleration for gait analysis studies. Use the hand dynamometer and accelerometer to […]

Brain

Biopac Science Lab comes with four lessons focused on brain activity: Lesson 5 — EEG I Electroencephalography: Brain Rhythms Lesson 5 introduces electroencephalographic (EEG) recording techniques. Students record EEG from the occipital lobe while performing a number of different tasks to demonstrate how the brain’s electrical activity varies depending on the task. The software filters the […]

Cardiovascular – Biology

Lessons include blood pressure, ECG analysis, heart sounds, and pulse. Students can make single-, three-, six- and 12-lead ECG recordings, familiarizing themselves with Einthovens triangle and mean electrical axis of the frontal plain. Students perform blood pressure measurements using a cuff, with stethoscope, employing Korotkoff sounds to make determinations of systolic/diastolic pressure. Students can also […]

Cardiovascular – Exercise

The BSL System includes many ECG lessons, including 12-lead ECG, cardiac output, and continuous blood pressure lessons. A heart sounds lesson allows students to listen to and record heart sounds, while comparing them to the ECG complex. There are also lessons for the Wingate test and blood pressure response to isometric straining exercise. Record cardiac […]

Cardiovascular – Human

The BSL System covers a wide range of cardiovascular measures based on the heart’s electrical signal. Record standard (LI, LII or LIII) or augmented (aVR, aVL or aVF) leads; add a multi-lead ECG cable to simultaneously record a pre-cordial lead. Students attach Leads I and III and the software uses Einthovens law to display Lead […]

Cardiovascular – Psychophys.

Students can record the changes in pre-ejection period and cardiac output relative to a variety of different stimuli. The new bioimpedance sensor greatly simplifies previously complex procedures to allow students to record stroke volume and cardiac output. Combine these signals with ECG and blood pressure to demonstrate the relationships between components of the Autonomic Nervous […]
