The nurse used a little tripod on wheels that had all the materials to take the signs. The nurse wrote down all the vitals on a chart

Pulse pressure‚ heart rate and mean arterial pressure are also considered. The results varied depending on the individual and their history. The class average was right around the optimal blood pressure range. Blood pressure and heart rate do increase immediately after exercise; but the diastolic number does decrease somewhat. With that being said‚

Respiratory rate: This includes the airways and lungs which provide oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. It is recorded as breathes per minute. The normal respiratory rate for an adult is 18-20 breathes per minute. If it is above 25 and below 12 then it is considered abnormal. Asthma is a common disease which makes it hard to breathe. Lung cancer affects the respiratory rate and can cause death. Asthma‚ chest conditions‚ stroke‚ stress and anxiety‚ sore throat and coughs affect the respiratory rate. Pulse

person’s heart rate and blood pressure. After exercising your heart rate should increase and your blood pressure should decrease (Blood Pressure Association‚ 2008). The purpose of this lab was to determine which level of exercise would have the greatest impact on affected pulse and blood pressure. In this lab we tested how exercise affected heart rate by testing a random group of people with different body types and exercise levels to see how different types of exercise would affect their pulse and blood

Caffeine effect on Daphnia’s heart rate Prepared for: Androniki Kloni By: Maria Mitsi October 6‚ 2013 Abstract Caffeine is a bitter‚ white crystalline xanthine alkaloid and a stimulant drug. Caffeine is found in varying quantities in the seeds‚ leaves‚ and fruit of some plants‚ where it acts as a natural pesticide that paralyzes and kills certain insects feeding on the plants‚ as well as enhancing the reward memory of pollinators. An experiment was held‚ on an aquatic

Physiological Measurements 1. 1.1 2. Physiological state in defined as “the condition or state of the body or bodily functions”. This can be measured when we perform our observations. By measuring a patient’s respiratory rate‚ oxygen saturations‚ peak flow (in asthma patients)‚ pulse rate‚ systolic and diastolic blood pressure‚ core temperature‚ blood sugar‚ pupil reaction and Glasgow coma scale. All these combined measurement can give us an insight into the patient’s health or Physiological state. 2

The effects of changes in the body were observed and measured during body positioning‚ exercise‚ and cognitive stress. The purpose of this lab experiment was to test multiple variables that can have an effect on blood pressure and pulse. As stated‚ the following variables that were tested were changes in posture‚ exercise‚ and a cognitive stressor
