normal time frames. Because the pacemaker originates in the sinus node and the conduction is normal‚ the P waves are uniform and will have a P wave for each QRS complex. Due to it being a Normal Sinus Rhythm the heart rate has to be a rate of 60 to 100 beats per minute and the PR interval must fall between 0.12 and 0.20 seconds being consistent across the entire strip. Last but not least the way you can tell if an EKG strip is a Normal Sinus Rhythm is by their QRS measurement that has to be less than

Should animals be used in medical research? The use of animals in laboratory research is a very well known debate. Many people wonder if the animals are treated well and if they are taken care of properly; however‚ if medical and scientifical experimentation were done in only human trials the knowledge and understanding of how drugs and procedures can affect human would be decades behind. That is why the use of animals in experimentation is a necessity in order to continue advancing medicine

Animals are used in scientific research‚ because it allows scientists to learn more about human biology and health‚ and for developing new and better medicines. They are used to establish medical treatments that will determine if the medications are safe‚ researchers check the safety of products destined for human use by testing it on animals first‚ animals are also used in other biomedical‚ commercial‚ and health care issues. The use of animals for disease research has many benefits‚ even when some

monkeys‚ birds and other innocent animals endure physical and verbal abuse in labatories for animal medical research and experimentation. Their rights and freedom are seized‚ they weaken in pain as well as being carelessly handled to have unfamiliar products tested on them. These occurrences could well and truly lead to animal cruelty. Firstly‚ animals’ rights and freedom are breached when they are used in research. Any animal should receive respectful treatment. Animals and people are alike in many

MEDICAL ERRORS By: Sara Unger While identifying reasons why medical errors occur and constructing models of how to manage them has proved relatively straightforward‚ implementing and meaningfully evaluating solutions in ’real-world’ settings has proven considerably more difficult. From an information systems (IS) perspective‚ although the promise of technology remains powerful. Using medical handover as a field-site‚ this research-in-progress paper presents an adaptation of James Reason’s ’Swiss

Robotics Within the Medical Field Healthcare has come a long way during the past 10 years in the sense that people can be helped more accurately and precisely. Robotics has stormed the medical scene and is now starting to be implemented in a vast amount cases and studies. While they are not common they are certainly being tested more now in the attempts to better serve every single patient. They have robotics that allow for the doctor to use a surrogate around the hospital‚ robots that

1. How can eliminating abbreviations reduce errors? I think that eliminating medical abbreviations would reduce errors because many abbreviations are very similar and people get confused between them‚ however‚ if abbreviations were eliminated it would make it very difficult on medical professionals. They would have to write out very lengthy medical terms. According to Dr. Darryl S. Rich‚ “to minimize the potential for error and to maximize patient safety‚ prescribers need to avoid such specifically
