BSL lesson experiments are included in the Lab Manuals and cover a wide range of concepts:

Muscular

• BSL1 - Standard & Integrated EMG I
• BSL2 - Motor Unit Recruitment & Fatigue (EMG II)

Cardiovascular

• BSL5 - Components of the ECG (Lead II)
• BSL6 - Leads I, II, III & Einthoven’s Law
• BSL7 - ECG & Pulse
• BSL16 - Blood Pressure & Korotkoff Sounds
• BSL17 - Heart Sounds & Cardiac Events

Pulmonary Function

• BSL8 - Respiratory Cycle
• BSL12 - Pulmonary Function: Vol. & Capacities
• BSL13 - Pulmonary Flow Rates: FEV and MVV
• BSL15 - Aerobic Exercise Physiology

Neurophysiology

• BSL3 - Electroencephalography (EEG I) Relaxation & Brain Rhythms
• BSL4 - Alpha Rhythms in the Occipital Lobe (EEG II)
• BSL9 - GSR and Polygraph
• BSL10 - Electrooculogram (EOG) Eye Movement, Saccades & Fixation
• BSL11 - Reaction Time
• BSL14 - Biofeedback: Relaxation & Arousal

With this set of experiments, students can evaluate their designs with the MP36 hardware and BSL PRO software. The circuit design experiments allow students to reinforce important concepts when recording and processing physiological signals.
