The inpatient stay ranges from six to eight months based on the severity of drug dependence. Patient with coronary artery disease and history of myocardial infraction cerebrovascular accident, congenital heart disease, episode of seizure in the past month, fracture and other condition that limit practice of yoga will be excluded from the study (Hariprasad, Arasappa, Vramally, Srinath & Gangadhar, 2013). Design This study will be a repeated measure model…
and apply this into my daily life. My results of my Hip-To-Waist Ratio, was 0.86. Now this I was not expecting. My results indicate that I am at high risk for probable health risks, such as obesity, diabetes, coronary heart disease and high blood pressure. However I know in my heart that I would never allow myself to gain that much weight. The modifications I can make for my health regarding getting a healthier Waist-To-Hip Ratio, would to take better care and reduce my weight to a healthier…
When the body is at rest, the heart beats at a normal pace. As kinetic energy is applied to the body, it is put into work which can make the heart rate increase a bit. Speed requires kinetic energy in order for it to be done. Depending on how fast the speed being applied to the body, the harder the body will work affecting the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Elements like force, friction and mass also play a huge role in this experiment. The scientific definition of speed is how fast an…
have carried out experiments to explore the differences in animal hearts. With regards to this experiment at hand, the differences were explored between mammalian and amphibian hearts. This experiment also helps us determine the effects of external, biological factors and pharmacological substances on the contraction of the heart. The following will serve as an overview of the structure and functioning of amphibian heart. A frog heart has three chambers (two atria and a single ventricle). The…
The uptake of oxygen into muscles is what facilitates muscle contraction. Oxygen that is obtained through breathing by the lungs is transported to the rest of the body, as well as the heart by means of haemoglobin. The rate of liberation of oxygen from haemoglobin has an effect on the quantity of oxygen available in the muscles for a muscle contraction to ensue. The higher the oxygen concentration in the muscle the greater the force of muscle contraction. Temperature has an effect on the…
Conclusion 1 : The degrees of exercise and the pulse rate are positively related. That means the pulse rate increases when the degrees of exercise increase. Explanation : - Pulse rate increases means the heart rate increases. - Heart rate increases means the frequency of the beating of heart increases. - Three reasons for the rise in pulse rate when the degrees of exercise increase. Reason ⅰ : To remove lactic acid in blood and skeletal muscle cells…
A polygraph is a common instrument of measurement to calculate and document physiological aspects such as respiration rate, electrodermal activity, and heart rate. The relevant uses of measuring respiration rate as well as heart rate are quite common in a wide variety of applications. However, electrodermal activity and the galvanic skin response are not commonly measured things in places such as the medical field, or education. Electrodermal activity (EDA) refers to the variation of the…
isolated heart from normal rats following acute MI Juea Park INTRODUCTION The heart is a muscular oragn which has to perform work to eject blood for the right and left entricles. Two laws govern the relationship between ventricular volume and cardiac pump performance. The first, the law of Laplace, is a low stating that when the ventricle dilates, the wall stress needed to achieve a give intraventricular pressure is increased. The second, Starling’s law of the heart,…
Introduction According to the American Heart Association, heart disease accounts for more than 17.3 million deaths a year and this number is expected to grow to more than 23.6 million in 2030. There are several types of heart disease, one of them being acute myocardial infarction also known as heart attack. Myocardial infarction is the damaging or death of an area of the heart muscle caused by blockage in the blood supply of that area. Myocardial infarction happens when the arteries become…
detect pulse and count the heart rate? The carotid pulse and the brachial pulse because the arteries are the larger ones that are near the surface of our skin so we can feel the pulse more. 2. What are some factors that can increase or decrease the heart rate and the beat you feel at each pulse point? Doing certain exercises can help increase the heart rate and to decrease the heart rate your can do something more relaxing. 3. Athletes often have a very low resting heart rate. What does this…
