Exercise increases the cardiac output and the blood pressure. Therefore, to obtain an accurate blood pressure reading wait 20 to 30 minutes following physical activity. Race is another factor, for unknown reasons African American over the age of 35 tend to have higher reading than European Americans. Also, younger female often has a lower blood pressure than males of the same age. However, postmenopausal women tend to have higher blood pressures. Stress stimulate the sympathetic nervous system which increases cardiac output and vasoconstriction of the arteries as a result the blood pressure increase. Fever can increase the blood pressure due to an increase in the metabolic rate. In contrast, external heat result in vasodilation which decrease

Anxiety is an extreme mental disorder when an anxious feeling does not subside and is constantly ongoing without a particular reason (Blue, 2016). This mental health condition can be extremely serious and overwhelming and makes it very hard to cope with daily life (Blue, 2016).
Blood pressure in our blood vessels is monitored by the baroreceptors. These receptors send messages to the cardio regulatory center of the medulla oblongata to regulate our blood pressure every minute. In order for blood to be delivered to all organs and tissues, our cardiovascular system must always maintain adequate blood pressure. If the blood pressure drops too low, these organs will not receive an adequate of nourishing blood. Also if the pressure goes too high, the walls of the arteries will stretch and increased activity within the baroreceptor, information will then be sent through the nerves to the cardio regulatory center within the medulla which will responds by initiating the mechanisms that decrease the blood pressure to a normal
Using class data, compare blood pressure, resting heart rate, and your heart rate after exercising between: A) Males/females. Account for any difference. When comparing blood pressure between males and females, males show to generally have a lower normal blood pressure, around high 90/60-70, while females have a higher normal blood pressure, around 120/50-90. Finally, male heart rates stay at low 90s to low 100s while the heart rates of females vary greatly from low 70s to low 100s. In terms of resting heart rate, females and males generally range from about low 40s to high 90s all together.
Lastly, blood pressure is associated with ones diet and lifestyle. It is amazing when one’s diet consist of a high intake of salt they will shows signs of hypertension. Studies have shown that people who did not use salt shown no signs of hypertension. Monitoring the intake of salt will improve blood pressure readings drastically although; it is not the only contributor to high blood pressure. Increasing activity levels has also been known the lower blood pressure readings.
High blood pressure causes vary from person to person. Some of the main causes of high blood pressure are genetics, diet, family history, weight, and use of too much salt. Genetics and family history of high blood pressure go hand in hand. Since family members share lifestyles and genes, that can influence their risk for this disease. Some characteristics that are out of your control that can affect the risk for high blood pressure include, age, race, or ethnicity. Although African Americans develop high blood pressure more often than Whites, Hispanics, Asians, Pacific Islanders, American Indians, and Alaska Natives, the lifestyle one lives can
Males, on average, increased their mean arterial pressure by 12.835 units. In contrast, females increased their mean arterial pressure by 2.25 units; however, there was one girl whose mean arterial pressure dropped after exercising instead of increasing. Both males and females all recovered from the exercise within the four minutes given to recover.
Respected Puritan minister, Jonathan Edwards, in his sermon, Sinners In The Hands of an Angry God (1741), warns the unrepentant sinners of his congregation that they will be damned to hell if they do not confess. Edwards’s intent is to manifest terror in the people of his congregation about the consequences of their sinful behavior. He adapts a condemning tone in order to convey a strong message in his congregation. Although Edwards’s use of extreme imagery was the strongest in the sermon, he also uses vivid metaphors and logos to convey his message.
During my research, I personally have found that blood pressure levels often equate with low birth weight, body mass, maternal age, racial factors, childhood obesity, insulin levels, an elevated blood pressure during childhood, and a positive family history. In fact, children from hypertensive families generally tend to have higher blood pressure levels than kids from normotensive families. Besides, there is also a greater association in blood pressure levels between fathers and their children.
Blood pressure readings may be temporarily higher or lower throughout the day. They change after exercise, rest, pain, and when you are happy or sad. Occasional high blood pressure
Is a condition where your blood pressure is higher than normal. Frequent exercise can help reduce it. The body needs a set amount of blood when resting preferably around 5 litres per minute when the amount of blood ejected from the heart increases. Regular exercise of cardio vascular disease of hypertension because the heart is more efficient of pumping blood around the body reducing high blood pressure.

The speed and distance of the run affects your heart rate reading, and how far you should run and be healthy about it (Heather Topham Wood 2015). To find out what your heart rate max should be for men she did 220 minus your age, and for women she subtract 88% of your age from 206. For instance, she said a 40- year- old man will have a maximum heart rate of 180, and a 40- year- old woman will have a maximum heart rate of 171. If you are new to exercise, she says, not to start running at 70 percent of higher of your maximum heart rate immediately. Long intervals of three to five minutes should be run at 95 percent of your max heart rate with short rest periods in- between. Short intervals of no more than 90 seconds can be ran at 100 percent of your max heart rate and should have long rest sessions (Topham Wood, 2015).
The ancient Greeks believed that the human heart pumped an endless supply of “pneuma”, or life energy. Galen, a Greek physician, believed that the “pneuma” and blood flowed from the heart like a fountain. He believed that there was an endless supply of this precious life source. It was not until 1616 that William Harvey determined that Galen was not entirely correct. Due to the practice of bloodletting during Harvey’s time, his belief that blood is in fact finite was not warmly welcomed. (O’Brien)
Information related to the patient is very important and should only be discussed by the medical team that is involved in the treatment of a patient. This includes information that is gained verbally or as put down in the medical records. Among the information, it includes the following, lab tests, x-rays, blood samples and scans done on a patient’s body. Personal control of a person 's health status is very important. The right to have medical records, kept private is safe guarded even by the government in power, whether stored electronically, or in paper file form. This comes amidst arguments as to whether it will have an impact on patient’s life. "Fundamentally this health concern is being challenged because of the
