212cups Case Study

Once the thirty seconds was up, the person counting stopped and the heart rate (beats per second) was recorded. The same process was done again, but the counter counted the hearts beats for 1 minute. Again, after the 1-minute was up the heart rate was recorded for 1 minute. The same process was done again for 2 minutes, afterwards being recorded.

Heart Rate was taken before and after the walk. How long it took the patient to walk was also timed.

Once the patient was correctly hooked up to the EKG the BIOPAC Student Lab Program was started. Lesson five is the one we used for this experiment and once it had been chosen we label it and started the experiment. There were four conditions we needed to measure; the first being lying down. The subject was lying down relaxing on the cot. We clicked record and let it run for 20 seconds. The data resembled the chart below. If it did not we would have had to repeat the steps until it did.

Immediately upon completing the exercise, record your breathing rate and heart rate (for 10-15 seconds). Continue to record Heart rate and breathing rate every minute (or every 30 seconds if you can) UNTIL your heart rate returns to resting rate, and your breathing rate returns to normal.

approprite physical activity. However , I do not beleive it has the ablitiy to properly give these individuals the correct assement of their health for activities . It is very important that a individual can be confident in a test

This test is usually done as part of an annual routine exam after age 50.

A blood sample is required for this test. It is usually collected by inserting a needle into a vein.

I knew that giving her tests that she was not familiar with would skew the results so I tried my best to stick with the tests that she was already somewhat familiar with. I hoped to give her valuable information about each test she did and explain why she did those tests. I researched through our book to see which test would be most beneficial for a sedentary client. The book is not the only source I relied on, I also read some articles to find more

important test of an individuals physical health since unhealthy levels can lead to heart attacks,

Following 5 days, enjoy a reprieve for 10 days and after that begin drinking it once more.

Vital signs are great indicators to show any abnormalities of a patients health. A nurse assessing older adult patients need to think about the variations that come with aging; such as bones becoming more rigid, skin to become more like paper and are more suitable for tears; and their hearts may not be able to pump blood as efferent as before (Jensen, 2015). Many challenges can arise when trying to obtain an older adults’ vital signs such, as palpating a pulse and taking temperatures; nurses have to be able to find ways to get around these challenges, and get accurate results.

I gave this test to a friend of mine children’s, I chose her because she was the only one that I knew has kids within the suitable range which applied to this procedure and she was also willing to allow their children to help me do the tasks in their home.

The materials required to perform this experiment are the NI ELVIS II+ board, the Infrared Easy Pulse Circuit, the heart rate sensor, the required cables, Lab VIEW, a computer, and a screwdriver. To set up the experiment, the Elvis board needs to be connected to power and to the computer. The IR Easy Pulse circuit needs to be wired to the Elvis Board as shown in Figure A1. The Pulse Monitor.zip folder needs to be downloaded and the Pulse

Pharmacological testing to check that the drug do not produce any hazardous effects such as cardiac arrest, cardiac dysrhythmias, acute bronchoconstriction etc.

The effects of heart rate on differing durations of exercise were studied in this experiment. For people, heart rate tends to increase as they perform physical exercises. The amount of beats per minute gradually increases as people perform physical activities. Heart rates taken before exercise are relatively low, and heart rates taken one minute after exercise increase significantly. Heart rates slowly begin to decrease after they are taken two minutes and three minutes after performing the step test, which is to be expected. The rates of intensity throughout exercise relates with changes in heart rate throughout the step test performed in the experiment (Karvonen 2012). The age of the participants affected the experiment, since the heart rate during physical exercise, in this case the step test, is affected by age (Tulppo 1998).
