Abstract:
Pregnant women were examined during I, II, and III trimesters in order to detect EEG correlations of gestation dominant in health and threatened abortion. Single uncomplicated pregnancy was characterized by predominant activation in the central and temporal areas contralateral to the location of the placenta. Threatened abortion was associated with inversion of interhemispheric asymmetry of activation with respect to the placenta location.

01:23Brain Waves
Brain waves are electrical signals generated by the neurons in the brain, which are regularly monitored to measure mental activities. Brain waves and their frequency ranges can be measured using an electroencephalogram or EEG. There are four main types of brain waves, each with distinct characteristics:
01:19Electrophysiology of Normal Cardiac Rhythm
The normal cardiac rhythm is a synchronized electrical activity that facilitates the regular and coordinated contraction of the heart muscle. This process is essential for efficient blood circulation throughout the body. The fundamental elements involved in establishing and maintaining this rhythm include the unique electrical properties of cardiac muscle cells, the sinoatrial (SA) node's pacemaker function, the specialized conducting system, and the ionic mechanisms underlying each phase of...
