The document outlines an exam for a Biomedical Instrumentation course, providing 11 multiple choice questions about topics like cardiac arrhythmias, heart rate variability, Holter monitors, heart sounds, pacemakers, and blood pressure measurement. It includes two longer answer questions, one asking to describe pacemaker modes in detail and the other asking about indirect blood pressure measurement methods. The exam is worth a total of 30 marks and must be completed within 2 hours.
