Accuracy of Cardiac Auscultation by Microwave

Raymond L. H. Murphy et al. · 1973

Fifty subjects, including twenty-seven patients with known heart murmurs and the remainder normal volunteers, were examined both directly and via a microwave telestethoscope by an observer 2.7 miles away who was blinded to their status. All murmurs of grade 2/6 or louder were accurately described, while two of the 32 grade 1/6 murmurs were not heard. Overall findings matched in 98 percent of cases, with 19 of 24 systolic murmurs graded identically and five differing by one grade.

ELECTROMAGNETIC POWER DEPOSITION IN MAN EXPOSED TO HIGH-FREQUENCY FIELDS AND THE ASSOCIATED THERMAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL CONSEQUENCES

Arthur W. Guy et al. · 1973

Researchers used a spherical mathematical model to simulate heat transfer and thermoregulation in a nude man resting at 28° C. and 50% RH, exposed to 100 watts of deposited power corresponding to 590 mw./cm.2 at 20 MHz. The study also calculated that incident power densities of 3540 and 900 mw./cm. at 20 MHz would produce a heat stress index of 100 for a man at rest and at work, respectively, in an environment of 25°C., 50% RH, and 15 mb.

Effects of active magnetic fields on permanently implanted triggered pacemakers

Nicholas P. D. Smyth et al. · 1973

Fifty-two patients with triggered ventricular, atrial, A-V synchronous, and A-V sequential pacemakers were exposed to magnetic fields generated by fixed and portable weapons detectors ranging from 100 Hz to 450 kHz at 0.5 to 1.35 gauss. No standard ventricular pacemaker, unipolar or bipolar, was affected by any of the weapons detectors. Of the eight patients with sensitive atrial pacemakers, one showed a single-beat rate increase that was not reproducible on repeat testing. In the two sensitive A-V groups, a brief rate change occurred in all three patients in each group, and any changes resolved immediately after leaving the magnetic field. No pacemaker stopped functioning, post-test ECGs showed no persistent rate changes, and no patient reported symptoms during exposure.

UHF IRRADIATION AND THE WORKER IN INDUSTRY

M. N. Sadchikov et al. · 1972

Researchers examined 59 workers with radiowave disease who were exposed to UHF electromagnetic fields up to several milliwatts per 1 em. Extracranial vessels showed a similar 48 percent reduction in hyperemia and a 57 percent increase in tone, while peripheral circulation in hands and feet remained within normal ranges. Rabbits irradiated at 50 microvolts per em2 for four hours daily over four months showed reduced phagocytic activity.
