Broken heart

heart’s ‘pain’ until very late in the game, and at that point, it could be a life-threatening situation. The heart pumps about five quarts of blood per minute when sitting, when running this increases to twenty-five or thirty quarts; the heart is not designed to do this for hours on end, day after day. The heart can enter a state of ‘volume overload’ that stretches the walls of your heart muscle, literally breaking fibres apart. Problems occur because many endurance…

Unit 2 The physiology of fitness P1 P2 M1 In this assignment I have been asked to talk about the physiology of fitness, because I am on am football so it is important for me to understand this side of the game. In P1 it is all about how the musculoskeletal and energy system responses to acute exercise. P2 is about the cardiovascular and repertory system and how that responds to acute exercise. M1 wants me to explain the response for the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and repertory system to…

cardiovascular function and lead to increased risk of cardiovascular disease, even in healthy asymptomatic individuals. Heart attacks and strokes are usually acute events and are mainly caused by a blockage that prevents blood from flowing to the heart or brain. The most common reason for this is a build-up of fatty deposits on the inner walls of the blood vessels that supply the heart or brain. Strokes can also be caused by bleeding…

traumatic heart disease is based on mechanism of injury (i.e., penetrating, nonpenetrating [blunt], iatrogenic, metabolic, and other) (Table ) . PENETRATING CARDIAC TRAUMA Penetrating trauma is the most common cause of significant cardiac injury seen in the hospital setting, with the predominant injury being from guns and knives. Penetrating cardiac trauma is secondary to stab wounds in 35 to 96 percent of patients…

States. Each year approximately 600,000 people die from these heart related diseases. Cardiovascular disease is something that can be acquired at birth or over a period of time due to genetics or lifestyle. There hundreds of different types of cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease can be detected through a series of blood test, blood pressure, or even an electrocardiograph. Electrocardiographs record the electrical activity of the heart. The main purpose of this essay is to inform the…

integral part of the emergency response routine. In fact, the American Heart Association considers defibrillation a basic life support skill for paramedics and rescue workers.” (DIRECT QUOTE) The human heart is arguably the most vital organ of the human body, as its coordinated and controlled two-part pumping is necessary to supply blood to the entire body. This supply rate is regulated by the pacemaker region of the heart, in the right atrium (chamber), by detecting a diffusion of ions,…

BROKEN WINDOWS POLICING THEORY The Broken Windows theory of policing was a model discussed in 1982 by James Q. Wilson and George L. Kelling in an article in The Atlantic (1). The thought was if a building has a broken window left unrepaired it appears to show that no-one cares. Untended property becomes fair game for people up to no good even people who would not normally do such things. Wilson and Kelling stated in their article that because of the nature of community life in the Bronx,…

can reach “Tipping Point.” This idea can be proved by “Broken Windows Theory”, which claims that “ If a window is broken and left unrepaired people walking by will conclude that no one cares, and no one is in charge. Soon, more windows will be broken, and the sense of anarchy will spread from the building to the street on which it faces, sending a signal that anything goes” (Gladwell, 152). Graffiti and fare-beating are both equivalent of broken windows. When people do not care about graffiti…

Sidewalk, author Mitchell Duneier distinguishes between physical disorder and social disorder within an urban society. He and other sociologists including, Bernard E. Harcourt, Mike Davis and Sampson and Raudenbush challenge Wilson and Kelling’s “broken windows” theory, which I will go into more detail about. Later on in the Essay, I will reflect on Part 1 of Duneier’s work, titled “The Informal Life of the Sidewalk”. Throughout the text, we will “meet” several men and women trying to make “an…

The Broken Window theory is created by criminologists James Q. Wilson and George Keeling. Wilson and Keeling said broken windows are analogous to cleaning up crime in neighborhoods by accepting the inevitable result of disorder. The Broken Window theory states that if a window is broken in a society that is heavily populated with crime and not replaced immediately, people who see the house with the broken window will think that no one cares about it. This…
