physics‚ energy is an indirectly observed quantity which comes in many forms‚ such as kinetic energy‚ potential energy‚ radiant energy‚ and many others; which are listed in this summary article. This is a major topic in science and technology and this article gives an overview of its major aspects‚ and provides links to the many specific articles about energy in its different forms and contexts. The question "what is energy?" is difficult to answer in a simple‚ intuitive way‚ although energy can be

Cardiovascular fitness is the practice of using and transfer of oxygen to the organs in your body. The daily exercising can help bring oxygen to the body making it more simple to release oxygen. So enhancing your exercising routines is useful. An important thing about cardiovascular fitness is the maximum volume of oxygen you body can retain is called VO2 Max. There are different ways for you to exercise and practice cardiovascular fitness like walking. Cardio fitness can also involve aerobics‚ but

common cause of maternal death in Western countries‚ suicide being first1. According to CDC‚ heart disease is the leading cause of death in women who are 25 to 44 yrs old2. Maternal cardiac disease in a pregnant woman can present challenges in cardiovascular and maternal-fetal management thereby leading to significant non-obstetric maternal morbidity and mortality3. Approximately 1% of pregnancies are complicated by cardiac disease and the management of these cases can challenge the entire team providing

Showing cardiovascular and ventilatory responses at rest and during exercise Abstract Objective: The objective of this experiment is to analyse how the cardiovascular and respiratory parameters are affected by steady state exercise. Method: The experiment was split into two stages‚ rest and exercise. A spirometer‚ an ECG‚ a Douglas bag and a blood pressure monitor were used at rest on the subject. In the exercise phase a Douglas bag and the blood pressure monitor were used to measure the subject’s

Cardiovascular Case Study: Atrial Fibrillation and Oral Anticoagulation Scenario You are the nurse working in an anticoagulation clinic. K.N. is a patient who has a longstanding irregularly irregular heartbeat (atrial fi brillation‚ or A-fi b) for which he takes the oral anticoagulant warfarin (Coumadin). Recently‚ K.N. had his mitral heart valve replaced with a mechanical valve. You know that there are different PT/INR (prothrombin time/International Normalized Ratio) goal recommendations based

The cardiovascular and respiratory systems work towards a common goal of getting oxygen to tissues and getting carbon dioxide out of the body (Cloe‚ 2013). Each system has their own function to help the other‚ but the main focus is to oxygenate the blood. The body does this through one of the bodies organs‚ the lungs. Low oxygenated blood is pumped through the pulmonary arteries to the lungs. Whenever we breathe this low oxygen blood is turned back into oxygenated blood when carbon dioxide is forced

Chronic Disease Outline for Cardiovascular Disease Introduction – The statistics for cardiovascular disease are astonishing‚ approximately 26.5 million people are diagnosed with one form or another of heart disease each year. Of those that are diagnosed approximately 600‚000 lose the battle each year. Many live their lives with some form of heart disease and may not even know it. Cardiovascular disease which is also known as heart disease can come in all forms from an irregular heart beat to heart

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a general identification of diseases of the heart and the blood vessels. It is the leading cause of death in Australia and the amount of people living with it increases and is increasing due to environmental‚ socioeconomic and sociocultural determinants. One in 5 Australian’s were diagnosed with CVD between 2011 and 2012. In 2012 alone‚ 43‚946 Australians died because of CVD and in 2013 to 2014‚ 11% of all hospitalisations were due to CVD. These three factors differentiate
