This paper describes for the first time the possibility to record the electrocardiogram (ECG)
and heart rate (HR) with a commercially available telemetry and data acquisition system in
freely moving mice. The system comprises a telemetry transmitter implanted in the peritoneal
cavity and a receiver, placed underneath the home cage, an A/D converter (MacLab) and a
Macintosh LC II 4/80 computer with software (MacLab, Chart/Scope). The raw analog ECG
data are digitized within the MacLab and can be converted to HR data additionally. The …
