Mangaluru: A startup incubated at NITK-STEP and founded by a faculty member successfully designed and tested a short-range frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar and pulsed doppler radar.Sri ...
Doppler radar uses the Doppler effect to measure the radial velocity of targets in the antenna's directional beam. The Doppler effect shifts the received frequency up or down based on the radial ...
Your pulse rate is your heart rate. It's the number of times your heart beats in one minute. Learning how to check your pulse the correct way may help you know if your heart is beating too slow or too fast. You can feel your pulse in an artery in your wrist or in your neck. The wrist artery is ...
Checking your pulse pressure may help your care team predict your risk of heart and blood vessel events, such as heart attacks and strokes. A pulse pressure greater than 60 is a risk factor for heart disease, especially for older adults. Stiffness of the body's largest arteries is the leading cause of increased pulse pressure in older adults.
Cardiologists in Mayo Clinic's Heart Rhythm Services are performing safe and successful ablation in patients using a novel energy source. The FDA-approved pulsed field ablation (PFA) for atrial fibrillation (AFib) marks a milestone in electrophysiology. Instead of using heat or cold energy as in ...
Checking pulse over the carotid artery To check your pulse over your carotid artery, place your index and third fingers on your neck to the side of your windpipe. When you feel your pulse, look at your watch and count the number of beats in 15 seconds. Multiply this number by four to get your heart rate per minute.
