EBM 501: Biomedical Instrumentation II Continuous Assessment Test 1

Continuous assessment test one in biomedical instrumentation two, taken on the twenty-fifth of November 2019 and set by the electrical and electronics engineering department of the School of Engineering and Technology. Three questions of equal weight. Einthoven and Burger triangles as used in electrocardiograph measurements compared and contrasted, and the ionic current in a polarised cell against a depolarised one. Direct blood pressure measurement by inserting suitable transducers within the circulatory system: the types of transducer used and how the method is applied. And the electrocardiographer's measurement of the potential existing between points on the surface of the human body, discussing the different planes in which those measurements can be carried out.
