Artificial heart

fast or irregular heart rhythm, FDA said in announcing approval of the pacemaker device in February 1993. Since this approval, thousands of Americans suffering from irregular heart rhythm are able to live a healthy and happy life thanks to this invention. Because of this small device, symptoms are relieved, lives are longer, and people are able to live life to the fullest. “It’s a big breakthrough,” said David B. Delurgio, an Emory University cardiologist. “It’s not for every heart-failure patient

Throughout its history, artificial intelligence has always been a topic with much controversy. Should human intelligence be mimicked? If so, are there ethical bounds on what computers should be programmed to do? These are a couple of question that surround the artificial intelligence controversy. This paper will discuss the pros and cons of artificial intelligence so that you will be able to make an educated decision on the issue. What is Artificial Intelligence? The first step in getting anywhere

What if technology became so advanced, that people cannot distinguish between artificial intelligence and humans, not just in looks, but in personalities? These are the worlds created in both Ridley Scott’s 1982 film Blade Runner and Masamune Shirow’s 1989 manga The Ghost in the Shell. Both stories involve self-aware robots that are assimilated into theses culture. In Blade Runner, the protagonist Rick Deckard works as a blade runner, a hunter who captures rogue replicants, to keep the society safe

Knowing Flannery O’Connor’s religious conviction, one cannot overlook this underlying tone in both of her regarded stories “A Good Man is hard to Find” and “Good Country People”. It is often said of those who stand outside of religious conviction that faith seems to come in handy to people only when it is valuable to get them out of a predicament, of which they have likely placed themselves through insensitive behavior and decisions. In such a desperate attempt to appeal to faith, one only finds

Machines and technology are included in our daily activities and lives. Artificial Intelligence is the ability machines and technologies have to copy human abilities and actions. Some examples of artificial intelligence examples would be Siri, Alexa, and robots. AI is potentially dangerous because they are taking over human abilities. Although helpful, using Siri and Alexa can cause people a loss of creativity and thinking. People are turning off their creativity and self-thinking abilities by using

Although heart has its own rhythm and natural electronics stimulation, pacemaker refers an artificial internal or external device that is implanted in to the chest to regulate and maintain hearts natural rhythm. In simple word pacemaker send impulse to heart chamber when weak signal of impulse generated by the heart SA node. My project was based on Rate-Responsive pacing systems. During the day body need different amount of oxygen in the body depending on the state of sleeping, exercise, sitting

Concerns on Artificial Intelligence Artificial intelligence is still an infant compared to other technologies. It brings about great promises for our future and some even predict that its importance will rival that of the printing press. (Boden) By human nature, many tried to play God: People of all generation and all over the world dreamt of creating a being that is capable of carrying out human actions. A few decades ago, many regarded cloning as ludicrous and simply

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a lifesaving technique useful in many emergencies, including heart attack or near drowning, in which someone's breathing or heartbeat has stopped, first aid and CPR can help to safe the victim life from death. Why CPR is important? Because a human brain can survive for only a average for five minutes without oxygen before it becomes permanently damage. CPR can dramatically increase a person’s chance of making a full and complete recovery, even after serious
