2. Heart rate monitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart_rate_monitor

   A heart rate monitor (HRM) is a personal monitoring device that allows one to measure/display heart rate in real time or record the heart rate for later study. It is largely used to gather heart rate data while performing various types of physical exercise. Measuring electrical heart information is referred to as electrocardiography (ECG or EKG).

3. Pulse watch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_Watch

   There are also devices which use similar technologies to monitor heart rate from the ear, forearm and chest, using a chest strap. [2] All of which still use similar mechanisms to provide unobstructed biometric data for individuals. One study compared the use of a pulse watch device and a forearm device in detecting heart rate during physical ...

4. Fitness tracker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitness_tracker

   Wearable heart rate monitors for athletes were available in 1981. [4] Improvements in technology in the late 20th and early 21st century made it possible to automate the recording of fitness activities, as well as to integrate monitors into more easily worn equipment. The RS-Computer shoe was released in 1986.

   The monitor showed his heart rate was at 164 beats per minute (bpm) at the start of his daughter’s routine. But his heart rate jumped up to 181 bpm as he continued to watch.

6. Exercise physiology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exercise_physiology

   The first-line physiologic response to this demand is an increase in heart rate, breathing rate, and depth of breathing. Oxygen consumption (VO 2 ) during exercise is best described by the Fick Equation : VO 2 =Q x (a-vO 2 diff), which states that the amount of oxygen consumed is equal to cardiac output (Q) multiplied by the difference between ...

7. Bezafibrate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bezafibrate

   Bezafibrate (marketed as Bezalip and various other brand names) is a fibrate drug used as a lipid-lowering agent to treat hyperlipidaemia. It helps to lower LDL cholesterol and triglyceride in the blood , and increase HDL .

8. Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_hypothermic...

   Since heart-lung machines, also known as cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), had not been invented yet, stopping the heart meant stopping blood circulation to the whole body, including the brain. The first heart surgery using hypothermia to provide a longer time that blood circulation through the whole body could be safely stopped was performed by F ...

9. Renin inhibitor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renin_inhibitor

   The renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) plays a key role in the pathology of cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetic kidney disease and heart failure. [17] Under normal conditions, stimulation of the RAAS occurs in response to threats that compromise blood pressure stability, such as hypotension , blood loss and excessive ...
