Abstract

During passive and active listening tasks baseline respiratory sinus arrhythmia and heart-rate responses were studied of 18 children with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and 49 healthy school children. The experimental procedure included baseline recording (no task), a passive listening task, instructions, and both simple and discriminative active-listening tasks. ADHD subjects showed less respiratory sinus arrhythmia than normal children but were similarly responsive to tone stimuli.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.

Attention Disorders

Attention is involved in all cognitive activities, and attention disorders are reported in patients with various neurological diseases. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to attention disorders.
