The automatic response of the body is to increase cardiovascular output when activity rate increases; in order to raise oxygen levels in the blood for cell respiration. However, this response is varied depending on the type of activity being undertaken by muscles. A higher intensity exercise such as running causes a larger cardiovascular response however in the increase in mean arterial pressure is small. Whereas a lower intensity exercise causes a low cardiovascular response but the increase in…
Total Hip Replacement Hip arthroplasty is using a prosthesis to replace hip joint is one of the most common surgical procedures today (Walker, 2007). A good surgical team will increase the success rate of the total hip replacement. However, proper nursing interventions during pre-operative and post-operative phase of the surgery is very important for the patient. Nurses spend more time with patients compared to the other health care personnel. Therefore, a good nursing care will better…
Clinical Paper for Off-Sight Observation Experience: Special Procedures Madison Munday University of North Dakota Clinical Paper for Off-Sight Observation Experience: Special Procedures For my off-sight observation experience, I was assigned to shadow at Special Procedures. I had the opportunity to learn about many different conditions and procedural techniques, so it was an excellent contribution to my nursing education. At Special Procedures, I was able to follow three patients.…
Vascular access: Vascular access has a double lumen catheter located in the subclavian vein and artery in place. The caregiver removes the soiled dressing and assesses the site for infection. Once that 's completed the caregiver sterilizes it with a choraprep swab. The tubes are connected and the caregiver aspirates each port, then is flushed…
cellular waste products and permits blood to circulate and form cells in the body to nourish it with every heartbeat throughout the body.However, the Cardiovascular system is composed of the following organs, heart and blood vessels, including arteries, veins, and capillaries. One of the major structures of this system is the heart which functions to propel blood throughout the body, supplying oxygen and nutrients to the tissues. For example, the right side of the heart pumps blood through the…
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) and extracellular matrix (ECM): Blood vessels, include arteries that transport blood from the heart to the systemic circulation, and veins that transport blood back again into the heart. A remarkable change in blood vessel structure and function happened, with the emergence of a high-pressure, pulsatile circulatory system in vertebrates. Blood vessels then evolved from simple tubes for channeling blood or other body fluids from a low-pressure heart. According…
Body systems and the bond types of Vitamins and Minerals go hand in hand. The Digestive System breaks down food into vitamins and minerals to be transported to other body systems. The Integumentary System is made up of skin, which uses copper to create Melanin to help protect against the sun. The Integumentary System also uses Vitamins A and C, as well as Niacin and Zinc for healthy growth and repair of skin. The Respiratory System consists of mouth, nose and lungs to inhale oxygen and exhale…
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…
During exercise or human movement, a person’s heart rate, the number of beats per minute, and also systolic blood pressure increases as the intensity of the exercise increases. While diastolic blood pressure will remain the same with the exception of a 10-mmHg gap change. A typical person’s blood pressure remains around 120/80 millimeters of mercury (mmHg). It may not be the exact numbers but it is very similar to the standard. During a type of exercise a person’s systolic blood pressure, “the…
Worksheet 1: Biological Hierarchy; and Organising the Natural World 1. Define what is meant by the “biological hierarchy”. Biological hierarchy is the structured organisation of all biological entities. It can be shown in pyramid form with the most simple element at the base being atoms and at the pinnacle is the ecosphere, the most complex. 2. What is an “emergent property?” An emergent property is when a new property develops on the next step in the biological hierarchy as the levels…
