OMD551 Basic of Biomedical Instrumentation Syllabus – Anna University Regulation 2017
OBJECTIVES:
- To study about the different bio potential and its propagation
- To understand the different types of electrodes and its placement for various recording
- To study the design of bio amplifier for various physiological recording
- To learn the different measurement techniques for non-physiological parameters.
- To familiarize the different biochemical measurements.
UNIT I BIO POTENTIAL GENERATION AND ELECTRODES TYPES
Origin of bio potential and its propagation. Types of electrodes – surface, needle and micro electrodes and their equivalent circuits. Recording problems – measurement with two electrodes
UNIT II BIOSIGNAL CHARACTERISTICS AND ELECTRODECONFIGURATIONS
Biosignals characteristics – frequency and amplitude ranges. ECG – Einthoven’s triangle, standard 12 lead system. EEG – 10-20 electrode system, unipolar, bipolar and average mode. EMG– unipolar and bipolar mode.
UNIT III SIGNAL CONDITIONING CIRCUITS
Need for bio-amplifier – differential bio-amplifier, Impedance matching circuit, isolation amplifiers, Power line interference, Right leg driven ECG amplifier, Band pass filtering
UNIT IV MEASUREMENT OF NON-ELECTRICALPARAMETERS
Temperature, respiration rate and pulse rate measurements. Blood Pressure: indirect methods – Auscultatory method, direct methods: electronic manometer, Systolic, diastolic pressure, Blood flow and cardiac output measurement: Indicator dilution, and dye dilution method, ultrasound blood flow measurement.
UNIT V BIO-CHEMICAL MEASUREMENT
Blood gas analyzers and Non-Invasive monitoring, colorimeter, Sodium Potassium Analyser, spectrophotometer, blood cell counter, auto analyzer (simplified schematic description).
