The Effect of Jumping Jacks on Heart Rate and Blood Pressure I. Introduction It is known that exercise effects how quickly a heart beats and thus how much pressure is needed to pump a person’s blood through their veins. There have been several studies over the years that have tested this. An experiment recoded by Nicolas Tordi, Laurent Mourot, Eglantine Colin, and Jaques Regnard, compared several factors between interval exercise and constant exercise. Two of the factors they monitored were…

Focus on “out-of-hospital” services in people’s homes and/or special care facilities Since the task of empowering patients is not easily achieved, we focused on a group of patients: patients who require care out of the hospital; for our purpose we focused on patients with chronic heart failure in particular on 2 groups, Post-Acute and patients affected by CHF under therapy at home not previously hospitalized. These patients require support from a group of people, medical and non-medical…

A recorder, a measurer, a control, and a tester will be needed. Firstly, gather the equipment needed for the cardio lab. A timer, sanitary wipes, and a kit which has stethoscope and a sphygmomanometer will be necessary. Firstly, have your control and test partners have their heart rate measured before any exercise. In order to do this, set the timer for 15 seconds and have them measure their heart rates. This is usually done counting the pulse…

contracts and relaxes, there is a pressure exerted on the arteries which is measured and recorded as blood pressure. A blood pressure that is elevated is referred to as hypertension. Blood pressure is measured using a device called a non-mercury sphygmomanometer or an automatic oscillometric monitor. The cuff is inflated to “restrict blood flow, and the device measures the pressure when the blood flow starts to return (systolic BP), and the level at which the blood flows unhindered (diastolic…

When I first started writing this personal statement an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia swept over me.I grew up seeing my dad with a stethoscope and a sphygmomanometer from 1970,s. We used to live close to a river called Kornofully. Most of his patients were from fishing colonies, where people could barely have two meals a day. He used to give them prescriptions along with medications which he got from different medicine companies. Seeing these poverty-stricken families my only desire was to…

It was collected during a class period in the LVB classroom 188 in anatomy laboratory. We used a sphygmomanometer or “blood pressure cuff” and a stethoscope and we took the blood pressure manually. The data was collected with our outcomings for the blood pressure and the pulse (BPM) and the level of physical activity in a sheet anonymously. The activity…
