Course content
Practical exercises will be divided into several thematic units: 1.Infuzní technology 2.Metrologie 3.Monitory vital functions 4.Umělá ventilation 5.Defibrilátory 6.Processing biological signals 7.Spirometrie 8.EKG, EEG Infusion technology The dispenser syringe, infusion pump Practicing trained medical staff Consultation with the technician familiarity with frequent failures - Simulation of faults and their subsequent removal Elaboration of protocol issues Metrology temperature maps Familiarization with the problems - working processes, outputs Monitoring of the temperature at different length door opening (5 s, 30 s, 2 min) - important for the storage of medicines, diagnostics, Drawing heat maps - report Calibration of thermometers measuring procedure Comparing the measured values ??with a standard - measurement at different temperatures and plotting the temperature dependence Protocol Sphygmomanometers Measurement of blood pressure using a mercury tonometers - verification of the digital measured values ??tonometer Simulation of the most common faults and their subsequent removal questions Monitor vital signs Familiarization with the device using the instructions for use and technology Visual inspection - checking mechanical damage Performing electrical safety testing (REVEX) - mains voltage, protective conductor resistance, insulation resistance, leakage current Checking controls audible and visual alarm Simulation of the most common faults and their removal ECG Lead Selection, change the type of filtration (description of the individual filters) ECG curve, heart rate Alarm Settings - these settings to induce an individual alarms Saturation measurement Record values, alarms Various types SpO2 sensor and method of use Blood pressure measurement Automatic x manual mode alarms Comparison of the heart rate from ECG SpO2 waveform x Effect of holding the breath for SpO2, ECG, HR Physical stress - the effect on SpO2, ECG, HR, TK Temperature measurement Surface temperature sensor Measuring the temperature at various locations of the body Artificial lung ventilation Familiarization with the product Correct assembly circuit Performing initial tests before using the machine Recording measured values ??measured fan Record flows and pressures in four selected ventilation modes Drawing curves description of the differences between modes. Simulation of the most common defects - troubleshooting Familiarization with transport fan Control circuit assembly, Advantages and disadvantages of a transport ventilator Drawing up, answer questions Defibrillators Familiarization with the operation of automatic external defibrillator (AED) Practicing CPR using AED with ECG simulator Performing regular checks as instructed AED simulators ECG: Visual inspection expiration of electrodes Control signal - optical and visual The correctness of the initial self-test AED Proper AED CPR course after connecting ECG simulator Protocol Familiarization with service defibrillator to intensive care unit Performing daily user test Defibrillation for synchronized cardioversion Questions protocol Biological signal processing - sleep laboratory TUL The measured biological signals - ECG, EEG, temperature Export data to formátu.csv Basic data processing in Matlab: import data Plotting the original curves Frequency spectrum signals settlement isolonie Avoid high frequency noise (eg. Mains hum, motion artifacts) Plotting curves gradually groomed The role is assigned to a better understanding of the functioning of such filters. Settings patient monitors Questions protocol Spirometry Familiarization with service in accordance with the instructions for use, preparation for measurement Static volumes - explanations of concepts

Learning activities and teaching methods
Clinical practice under supervision
  • Class attendance - 56 hours per semester
Learning outcomes
The course acquaints students with the processing and evaluation of native and evoked biosignals used in clinical practice in various medical fields. Practical exercises will focus on the role of a technician in the processing of electrocardiogram (ECG), Holter ECG monitoring, intracardiac electrocardiograms and modern mapping systems for the treatment of arrhythmias, heart imaging in echocardiography, processing of hemodynamic measurements. Practical demonstrations of electroencephalography and electromyography will be a part of the exercise.
Students obtain knowledge in given course in accordance with requirements and course programme.
Prerequisites
Preconditions are frased in the annotation of the course and in the curriculum of the studying programme.
