Day-old (Day 1) Arbor Acres x Arbor Acres male chicks were randomly assigned to two different diets: control (Diet A) and one that contained elements that contribute to SDS (Diet B). The heaviest birds in each group on Day 13 underwent surgery on Day 15 to have transmitters with temperature sensors and ECG electrodes implanted. After surgery, three controls and three implanted birds from each diet group were kept in individual cages and exposed to 23 h of light and 1 h of darkness during each 24-h cycle. Implantation did not affect weight gain between Days 13 and 22 (P = 0.396). Temperature measurements and 1-min ECG were taken every 15 min. Heart rate and heart rate variability were measured from three 2-s segments in two dark and two light period samples during Days 17 to 19. Diet B decreased weight gain (P = 0.045), lowered heart rate (P < 0.0001), and increased internal temperature (P < 0.0001). Heart rate variability was lower during dark versus light periods (P = 0.004), which indicates that the birds rested during the dark periods, but was not affected by diet (P = 0.651). Thus, biotelemetry provided a useful method for intermittent physiological monitoring of poultry on different diets and under changing environmental conditions.}, number={6}, journal={POULTRY SCIENCE}, author={Blanchard, SM and Degernes, LA and DeWolf, DK and Garlich, JD}, year={2002}, month={Jun}, pages={887–891} } @article{blanchard_dewolf_ekwueme okoli_degernes_garlich_1997, title={Heart rate and heart rate variability in male broilers at risk for sudden death syndrome}, volume={25}, number={1}, journal={Annals of Biomedical Engineering}, author={Blanchard, S.
