Non-human primates are widely used for experimental animal and raised as companion animal in Korea. To establish the electrocadiogram (ECG) of non-human primates that are domestically raised, the author measured bipolar limb leads and augmented unipolar limb leads, after tiletamine/zolazepam (TZ) injection as sedative agents. The amplitudes of P,Q, R,S and T wave and duration time of P wave, QRS complex, PR and QT interval in each lead of ECG were evaluated in 7 non-human primates at 15 minutes after TZ injection, respectively. The amplitude of P wave in I, II,III, aVR, aVL and aVF leads revealed 0.06$\pm$ 0.05,0.14$\pm$ 0.05, 0.1 $\pm$ 0.05,-0.11 $\pm$ 0.06,-0.04$\pm$ 0.04 and 0.12$\pm$ 0.05 mV respectively. The amplitude of Q wave revealed -0.16$\pm$ 0.15, -0.23$\pm$ 0.18, -0.17$\pm$ 0.13, 0.16$\pm$0.13, 0.04$\pm$ 0.09 and -0.2$\pm$0.13 mV, respectively. The amplitude of R wave revealed 0.56$\pm$0.56, 1.24$\pm$ 0.67, 0.92$\pm$0.33, -0.37$\pm$ 1.14, -0.22$\pm$ 0.47 and 1.12 $\pm$ 0.47 mV, respectively. The amplitude of S wave revealed -0.02$\pm$ 0.08, -0.04$\pm$0.06, -0.06$\pm$0.04, 0.02$\pm$0.04, 0.04$\pm$0.09 and -0.04 $\pm$ 0.06 mV, respectively. The amplitude of T wave revealed -0.01 $\pm$ 0.15,-0.02$\pm$ 0.13, 0.01 $\pm$ 0.08, 0.02$\pm$ 0.12, 0.01 $\pm$ 0.11 and -0.03$\pm$ 0.09 mV, respectively. The duration time of P wave revealed 0.05 $\pm$ 0.01, 0.04$\pm$ 0.01, 0.05$\pm$ 0.02, 0.05 $\pm$ 0.02, 0.04$\pm$ 0.01 and 0.04$\pm$ 0.01 sec, respectively. The duration time of QRS complex revealed 0.05 $\pm$ 0.02,0.05$\pm$ 0.01, 0.05 $\pm$ 0.01, 0.04$\pm$ 0.01, 0.05$\pm$ 0.01 and 0.05 $\pm$ 0.01 sec, respectively. The duration time of PR interval revealed 0.08$\pm$ 0.01, 0.07$\pm$0.01,0.08$\pm$ 0.03, 0.08$\pm$0.01, 0.08$\pm$ 0.01 and 0.08$\pm$0.01 sec, respectively. The duration time of QT interval revealed 0.23$\pm$ 0.06, 0.22$\pm$ 0.05, 0.23 $\pm$ 0.06, 0.23$\pm$ 0.06, 0.24$\pm$ 0.05 and 0.22$\pm$ 0.02 sec, respectively. No significant changes were observed in e amplitude of P and T waves. The amplitude of QRS complex in ketamine group was higher than that of TZ group. However, no significant changes were observed in both intra-group and inter-group. There were no significant changes in the duration time of P wave, QRS complex and PR interval obtained from both groups. Also, the duration time of QT interval in TZ group was significantly longer at 30 min.(P< 0.05) an that of 10 minutes after injection. However, significant difference was not found between two groups. The mean cardiac electric axis in ketamine group tended to decrease until 30 min. after injection and then gradually increase. However, mean cardiac electric axis of TZ group was increased until 30 min. after injection and then decreased. But significant differences were not observed between groups. These results suggest that the ECG pattern after TZ injection to non-human primates reared in korea was established. It was also considered that the injection of ketamine and TZ didn't significantly affect on ECG pattern of the non-human primates.

심방세동은 발작성 심방세동 단계에서부터 검출 및 분석하여 적절한 치료를 실시하여야 하며, 홀터 심전계를 통해서만 측정할 수 있다. 현재 12채널 심전계를 통해서는 심방세동 신호를 추출할 수 있는 효과적인 방법들이 개발되어 있으나, 홀터 심전계를 위한 방법으로는 심실활동 템플릿을 단순 제거하는 ABS(averaged beat subtraction)방법이 사용되고 있다. 최근 단일 채널 심전도로부터 심방세동 신호를 추출하기 위한 PCA(principal component analysis) 또는 SVD(singular value decomposition) 기반의 알고리즘이 제안되기도 하였으나, 구현이 복잡하고 전문가의 개입이 필요한 한계가 있다. 본 논문에서는 주 입력인 심방세동 심전도에서 심실활동을 이벤트로서 검출한 뒤 이를 기준 입력으로 하는 이벤트 동기 적응필터(ESAF, event-synchronous adaptive filter)를 제안하고, 심방세동 신호 추출 성능을 평가해 보았다. 그 결과 기존 ABS 방법에 비해 우수할 뿐만 아니라, 전문가의 개입 없이도 PCA 또는 SVD 기반의 알고리즘과도 대등한 성능을 보였다. 나아가 이형성 심실활동이 있는 경우에도 효과적으로 대응할 수 있는 확장 ESAF 방법을 제안하였으며, 단형성 심실활동이 있는 경우와 유사한 수준의 성능을 확인하였다. 제안된 알고리즘을 홀터 심전계에 적용하면 발작성 심방세동 심전도의 분석뿐만 아니라 항부정맥 약물의 치료효과를 실시간으로 보다 정확하게 평가할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Occlusive coronary artery disease presents a potential threat to a significant population in the United States. According to many case reports, the increasing incidence of coronary artery disease due to atherosclerosis is noted in Korean, recently. Operative vascular procedures have increased steadily in number over the past 20 years in the United States. There have been many isolated case reports about coronary artery surgery, but these had little clinical impact. Nowadays, major three coronary bypass surgery has developed principally at three cardiac centers in the United States since 1967. Among three coronary bypass operation, the aorta-coronary artery saphenous vein bypass graft was first demonstrated by Favolaro and Effler at the Cleveland Clinic in 1967. We experienced one case of coronary artery disease, which was treated successfully by aorta-coronary saphenous vein graft with mild hypothermia under extracorporeal circulation in May, 1977. Saphenous vein was removed from above the knee and was 2.5 mm in diameter. The left ventricle was not vented for the left ventricle was not overdistended. Temporary artificial pace-maker-Medtronic-was implanted for the prevention and treatment of post-operative arrhythmia and heart block in post-operative first day. He is a 57 year old male businessman who had been suffered from hypertension [200 mmHg in systolic pressure] since 4 years ago, who had intermittent conservative treatment at local clinic. He had been afflicted with severe chest pain with choking sensation for 50 days. This symptom was aggravated exposing cold weather, or cold water, but was respond to rest. Pre-operative ECG revealed no any other ischemic sign except sinus bradycardia. Significant S-T segment depression was noted at lead II, AVF after double 5 minutes exercise, indicating positive Master`s test. Serum cholesterol was slight elevated to 253 mg/dl. Final pre-operative diagnosis was made by coronary arteriogram, which showed about 1.0-cm segmental 90 % occlusive atherosclerotic lesion in the proximal part of right coronary artery above the origin of acute marginal artery. Left coronary artery revealed good patency and there was no collateral circulation between right and left coronary artery .Hospital course was not eventful. He was discharged with good result on the post-operative day. He has been free from chest pain for longer than 2 years. And also the arterial flow in the coronary bypass graft is auscultated with the pocket-sized ultrasonic velocity detector, which shows the patency of the coronary bypass graft good.

Body surface potential map, an electric potential distribution on the body torso surface, enables us to infer the electrical activities of the heart. Therefore, observing electric potential projected to the torso surface can be highly useful for diagnosing heart diseases such as coronary occlusion. The BSPM for the heart of a patient show a higher level of sensitivity than 12-lead ECG. Relevant research has been mostly based on clinical statistics obtained from patients, and, therefore, a simulation for a variety of pathological phenomena of the heart is required. In this study, by using computer simulation, a body surface potential map was implemented according to various occlusion locations (distal, mid, proximal occlusion) in the left anterior descending coronary artery. Electrophysiological characteristics of the body surface during the ST segment period were observed and analyzed based on an ST isointegral map. We developed an integrated system that takes into account the cellular to organ levels, and performed simulation regarding the electrophysiological phenomena of the heart that occur during the first 5 minutes (stage 1) and 10 minutes (stage 2) after commencement of coronary occlusion. Subsequently, we calculated the bipolar angle and amplitude of the ST isointegral map, and observed the correlation between the relevant characteristics and the location of coronary occlusion. In the result, in the ventricle model during the stage 1, a wider area of ischemia led to counterclockwise rotation of the bipolar angle; and, during the stage 2, the amplitude increased when the ischemia area exceeded a certain size.

목 적 : 이번 연구에서는 소아기에 흔한 선천성 심장병 환자들을 대상으로 개심술 이후 생긴 반흔과 수술로 인한 용적 또는 압력 과부하 상태의 변화로 초래되는 비정상적인 심실 활성화를 신호 평준화 심전도를 이용하여 분석하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 선천성 심장병으로 개심교정술을 시행한 환자 52명을 대상으로 하였다. 환자군은 우심실 용적 과부하군(심방 중격 결손군, 1군), 좌심실 용적 과부하군(심실 중격 결손군, 2군), 우심실 압력 과부하군(활로씨 4징군, 3군)으로 나누었다. 대상 환자 모두에서 표준 12 유도 심전도와 신호 평준화 심전도 검사를 시행하였고, 평균 QRS 기간, QT와 QTc 간격, f-QRS, HFLA, RMS in terminal 40 ms를 구하였다. 결 과 : 수술 전에는 1군에서 다른 군에 비해 의미 있게 긴 QRS 기간을 보였고(P=0.011), 수술 후에는 3 군에서 다른 군에 비해 QTc 간격이 의미 있는 증가가 있었다(P=0.004). 그러나 신호 평준화 심전도는 수술 전후 환자군 간에 차이가 없었다. 전체 대상 환자 중 신호 평준화 심전도 측정값이 한가지 이상 후전위의 진단 기준에 해당되는 경우가 수술 전 12명(23%)에서 수술 후 21명(40%)로 증가하였다. 특히 2군과 3군에서는 수술 전에 비해 수술 후에 신호 평준화 심전도의 이상 소견을 보이는 경우가 의미있게 많았다(2군: 20% versus 28%, P<0.001, 3군: 14% versus 64%, P<0.001). 결 론 : 비정상적인 신호 평준화 심전도 값은 수술 후 반흔뿐만 아니라 개심술 자체, 심실의 과부하에 의해서도 발생할 수 있다.
