3140311 - FBP

Type of course: Professional Core Course

Prerequisite: Human anatomy and physiology, basic physics

Rationale: The bioelectric signals such as ECG, EMG, EEG etc. are vital signs considered for primary diagnostic tools for the patient. This course describes the generation of these bioelectric signals which occur because of movement of sodium, potassium, calcium ions across the cell membrane. The course also covers the core physics associated with this movement, the properties of electrodes used to record these bioelectric signals and electrical safety associated with the patient.
