Final Exam 2005 Midterm Exam 2005 Assignments Assignments are due at the beginning of class on the date indicated.   No.   Assignment   Due Date   1   2.2 The LVDT transducer is more linear than the others shown in fig. 2.6. Why? 2.5 9.3 9.8 9.12 14.4. Does the use of conductive plastic make the shock worse?   Feb. 1   2   4.8 (give short definitions ≤ 40 words) 4.18 5.1 Discuss (briefly) one advantage of Ag/AgCl electrodes in comparison to stainless steel electrodes for measurement of low frequency signals, such as the ECG. 5.16 9.15 9.30 (only derive eqn 9.44)   Mar. 3   3   7.2 (estimate values by measuring curve from page) 7.5 (use a 0.5m long catheter instead) 7.12 (Also test effect of potential energy. For sitting patient Δh = 8 cm, For supine (on back) patient Δh = 0cm ) 8.4 (Use Vi=20mL and ΔTi=−20K) 8.7 10.6   Mar. 31   Laboratory Project Activity   Description   Due Date   Midterm report   Report is 3-4 pages (double spaced). Describe project progress to date. Discuss any current challenges.   Mar. 1   Presentation   Presentations will ≤10 minutes. Marks are based on technical content, clarity of presentation, and ability to answer questions.   Apr. 5 − Apr. 7   Report   The report will be 10−20 pages (double spaced). Include an introduction, methods, results and discussion.   Apr. 5   For the course project, students will analyse data from a medical instrumentation system. Data must be measured in raw form using a D/A converter (ie. raw ECG voltage measurements, rather than heart rate). If necessary, software must be developed to analyse the data. Data may come from any of the following sources: − Measured at respiratory system lab − Obtained from a biomedical database − Measured by the student. If you wish to do this, then it will be permissible to work in groups of 2 or 3. A list of possible project ideas (please discuss your ideas with the instructor or T.A. to get feedback on feasibility) − measure ECG and calculate heart rate for different activities − measure EMG and calculate gait − measure EMG and calculate fatigue − measure flow and calculate Flow Volume loops to get maximum expiratory flow − build mask to simulate high expiratory resistance in asthma − calculate flow − get blood pressure from inflated cuff − Measure VO2,max with exercise − Test maximum expiratory flow with negative end expiratory pressure (NEEP) − Measure surface and core temperature changes Course Outline Date   Activity   Jan. 4   Introduction, Measurement systems (ch 1)   Jan. 6 Jan. 11 Jan. 13   Overview of basic sensors (ch 2) Overview of electrical safety (ch 14)   Jan. 18 Jan. 20 Jan. 25 Jan. 27     Measurement of Respiratory system (ch 9) Notes for Jan 27.
