Discussion Overview

The discussion focuses on resources related to bioelectric signals, physiological transducers, electrodes, and biopotential amplifiers specifically for ECG, EEG, and EOG technologies. Participants seek recommendations for textbooks, application notes, and other educational materials.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • Some participants inquire about general resources on bioelectric signals and related technologies.
  • One participant recommends National Instruments for their technology and support, specifically mentioning Lab View applications.
  • Another participant suggests the textbook "Principles of Applied Biomedical Instrumentation" by Geddes and Baker as a valuable resource.
  • A participant mentions a positive experience with the textbook by Webster, noting its usefulness in a Biomedical Instrumentation class.
  • There is a reference to application notes from Texas Instruments on ECG amplifiers as a useful resource.
  • One participant highlights the book "Bioelectricity" by Plonsey and Barr, suggesting it may be more fundamental than needed for the discussion.
  • A later reply expresses a desire for fundamental descriptions of the topics discussed.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the need for resources related to the discussed topics, but there are varying opinions on which materials are most suitable, indicating multiple competing views on the best resources.

Contextual Notes

Some resources mentioned may vary in depth and focus, with certain texts being more fundamental or brief than others, which could affect their applicability to specific needs.

Hello.

Any good resources which include general information about :

1- Bioelectric signals
2- Physiological transducers
3- Electrodes
4- Biopotential amplifiers

for ECG (electrocardiograph),EEG(electroencephalograph),EOG (electro-oculograph).

I would advise you look in National Instruments, particularly their Lab View applications. All I can say is the technology, technical support, on site training is the best!

Hi,

I remember Texas Instruments had some good application notes on ECG amplifiers.

there are also plenty of books on the market. The "Webster" book as well as the one from "Enderle" (search for them at Amazon) are part of almost any biomedical engeneering course. They are good, but very brief.

regards
t.
 
I will try to get these books. Thanks
 
A professor at my previous institute used Bioelectricity by Plonsey and Barr; however, this might be a bit more "fundamental" than what you're looking for.
 
Yeah. I think that i need such "fundamental" descriptions to those topics.
Anyway let's see...we might want to discuss more
thanks
