Millivolt ECG Signal
The SRA is connected to a three-electrode set to provide direct, highly accurate
measurements in chronic or acute experiments.
It automatically samples the millivolt electrical signal from the leads attached
to a research animal, and instantaneously analyzes the ECG waveform to derive
12 measures of heart electrical activity, helping define nomal activity and
detect and quantitate the occurrence of heart arrythmias.
Histogram Graphs
When connected to a computer via the Digi-Med System Integrator, the SRA provides
graphical histograms, visual representations of the frequency distribution
of certain ECG variables. Three hisotgrams are maintained: All R-R Intervals,
Normal R-R Intervals, and All QRS Durations.
