    1. What do those numbers (130/87) mean? What do they relate to in the cardiac cycle? The numbers 130/87 is the blood pressure of the patient. The top number 130‚ is the reading that is received when the heart is in contraction and blood is pushed out of the heart into the rest of the body (this is called systole). The bottom number 87‚ is the reading when the heart is at it relaxed state and is being refilled with blood (this is called diastole.) 2. This deposition of platelets and fibrin can

    congested. This is then called congestive heart failure. 2. What is third-degree heart block? What would the EKG tracing of someone with third-degree heart block look like? Third-degree block‚ also known as third-degree atrioventricular block is “a cardiac conduction system where there is no conduction through the atrioventricular node” (Budzikowski 2014). The patient will have severe bradycardia with independent atrial and ventricular rates. These patients may suffer from ventricular standstill‚ which

    REVIEW SHEET EXERCISE 3 Neurophysiology of Nerve Impulses NAME: LAB TIME/DATE: Eliciting (Generating) a Nerve Impulse 1. Why don’t the terms depolarization and action potential mean the same thing? Action potential is a quick depolarization followed by a repolarization. Depolarization is a one way trip. It also takes a substantial depolarization to cause an action potential. 2. What was the threshold voltage in Activity 1? 3.0 V 3. What was the effect of increasing the voltage?

    The cardiac electrical activity is produced and controlled by the Sinoatrial (SA) node in the right atrium and the Atrioventricular (AV) node in the interatrial septum. The electrical signals move through the cardiac conduction system fibres causing the atria and ventricles to contract and relax regularly between 60-100 bpm [1].when those electrical signals are interrupted as a result of a damage in the conduction system‚ the heart rate would become irregular or would either increase resulting in

    of the electrocardiogram like polarization and depolarization waves. That the point at different direction of cardiac vector is also discussed. Further‚ the paper describes some segments of ECG waveform which can identify the segments and how ECG signal can be used to distinguish between different arrhythmias.

    According to this article‚ task switching is important in one’s daily life‚ but it slowly declines as one ages. The authors study the age differences in voluntary task switching (VTS) procedure and manipulate the time to prepare a task selection and the repetition of the current task. The study included 33 young adults‚ ages 18-24‚ and 10 older adults‚ ages 61-88. A computer and a serial response box was used to present the stimuli and the participants’ responses. The stimuli included digits 1 –

    CARDIAC TUMORS INTRODUCTION Cardiac tumours occur quite rarely‚ with metastatic neoplasms three times more prevalent than primary tumours. A large variety of benign and malignant tumours of the heart have been described. These tumors are found mainly in the heart‚ but can occur in the pericardium or the great arteries. Secondary cardiac involvement from malignant tumors of adjacent organs (lung‚ thymus) or from kidney (Wilms tumor) or liver‚ or even remote organs‚ are also seen. ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY

    Cardiac Cycle

    • 4 Pages

    Cardiac Cycle The cardiac cycle describes the coordinated and rhythmic series of muscular contractions associated with the normal heart beat. The cardiac cycle can be subdivided into two major phases‚ the systolic phase and the diastolic phase. Systole occurs when the ventricles of the heart contract. Accordingly‚ systole results in the highest pressures within the systemic and pulmonary circulatory systems. Diastole is the period between ventricular contractions when the right and left ventricles
