Determination of blood type Introduction: A blood type is a classification of blood based on the present or absence of inherited antigens substances on the surface of RBCs‚ these antigens are made by proteins‚ carbohydrates‚ and glycolipid‚ Now there are total of 8 blood type known for the international society of blood transfers ( ISBT)‚ Also 600 antigens are known for ISBT‚ Antigens are a type of protein (Y shaped) found in blood and it has a great role in the immune system to recognize any

10/7/12 Blood Doping Blood doping is the altering of the number of RBC’s (red blood cells) to increase the flow of oxygen by a series of techniques. Mostly used by athletes. The most common way is taking out about two pints of the athlete’s blood a few weeks before the competition they are competing in. The blood is frozen until a couple days before it is needed‚ thawed out‚ and then injected back into the athlete. This method is known as autologous doping (transfusion of blood from same person)

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of the “Blood Pressure and Pulse Experiment” is to determine how postural changes‚ exercise and cognitive stressors affect blood pressure and heart rate. Background The pressure of blood in the circulatory system is‚ also known as blood pressure (BP) is “the force exerted on a vessel wall by contained blood. This is expressed in millimeters per mercury (mmHg)” (Marieb & Hoehn‚ 2016‚ pp. 708). There are two parts to blood pressure: systolic pressure and diastolic pressure

In this particular essay‚ I am going to attempt to inform you about the disease called high blood pressure. In this three to four page report I will discuss what causes it‚ how it can be treated and when you know it is too high. Hopefully‚ after reading this piece‚ you will be more aware of what high blood pressure is. To begin with‚ the disorder or disease that I will be doing my report on is High blood pressure; also known as hypertension. The system that the disorder comes from is the cardiovascular

(U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 2008) There are many factors that lead to children and adolescent’s health and well-being‚ one of these factors being blood pressure. Physical activity is beneficial in lowering blood pressure in normal weight and obese children. The recommendations for physical activity in children and adolescents were developed by the Department of Health and Human Services in 2008. (CITE) There are different components

systolic blood pressure measured in the auscultatory method is more accurate than that measured in the palpitation method because the palpitation method is prone to more human errors such as how strong the pulse is‚ where it is located‚ how hard the wrist is pressed during palpitation and a stethoscope which is used in the auscultatory method is more sensitive than feeling a pulse. Hearing the pulse involves less human error than feeling it. 2. The maximum pressure exerted when blood is ejected

Introduction: High blood pressure or hypertension meaning high pressure (tension) in the arteries. Arteries are vessels that carry blood from the pumping heart to all the tissues and organs of the body. Normal Blood Pressure is below 120/80; blood pressure between 120/80 and 139/89 is consider pre-hypertension‚ and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is considered high. The systolic blood pressure is the pressure in the arteries as the heart contracts and pumps blood forward into the arteries
