Mobile device security threats and mitigation strategies
The virtual environment has become more and more populated with devices and mechanisms that allow people to become increasingly more mobile. There has been a constant increase in the way in which people tend to act in their day to day activities by using their personal computers, laptops, tablets, mobile phones and all kind of technology developments that allows them to be in contact with the rest of the world by the touch of a button. These advancements however also determined an increased need for protecting these devices from cyber crime and threats that are no longer traditional and attackable with traditional means of action. More and more often, challenges related to the protection of information that is being transferred via the internet make the subject of research and technological improvements.
Electrocardiogram interpretation and clinical applications
Currently there are different types of tests to study the behavior of the heart and monitor it. These tests are extremely important, because let us know in time if the heart is failing or has a problem. And because of that, today we submit to treatment or surgery to correct them when they are still small and manageable, before our life is at risk. The electrocardiogram, ECG or EKG, is one of those tests.
Electrocardiogram
The electrocardiogram (ECG / EKG) is the graph obtained with the electrocardiograph to measure the heart's electrical activity as a continuous graphic tape. It also helps to know the duration of the cardiac cycle. It is the main instrument for cardiac electrophysiology and has a significant role in screening and diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders and predisposition to sudden cardiac death (Daja, Reljin, Reljin, 2001). The ECG has the advantage of being a medical procedure with results available immediately, which is noninvasive and is inexpensive.
