Diagnosis of lymphedema requires a detailed medical history and physical exam [15]. From medical history, patients with breast cancer and lymphedema may report symptoms such as sensation of arm fullness and mild discomfort, which are seen in the early stages of the condition, whereas joint immobility, pain, and skin changes are noted frequently in the later stages of lymphedema. Furthermore, changes may include pitting of tissues, increased thickness of skin folds, and enlargement of the…
The limitations of calculating π included the tools given for calculation. A paper tape measure consisted on units of centimeters and approximation to the nearest tenth could have limited the exercise. The best method was picking the closest centimeter measurement visibly possible for the diameter and circumference by wrapping the paper tape measure around the circles. The worst method would be using a ruler or meter stick. The only improvements that could be made is the use of smaller units to…
will be measured by the PACER test. This test was found to be valid and reliable by multiple recent and relevant studies (de Heer et al., 2011; Slusser et al., 2013; Wright et al., 2012). This test will be performed as the pretest and posttest to measure physical fitness. The PACER test will be completed as described in the manual provided by Nova Southeastern University (n.d). For children ages 6 to 9, a member of the research team will perform the PACER with the child to help guide them to…
For the aquatic environment an Amazon Sword (Echinodorus amazonicus), a Common Goldfish (Carassius auratus), gravel, and tap water. The procedure that i followed when building the eco column are: Step one, for bottle 1 use a tape measure to measure 1inch from the bottom to the top then mark it, for the second bottle mark at the bottom of the label, cut both bottles at the mark all the way around, after the cuts grab a straight nail with some pliers and then heat the nail with fire and…
manure inside. 13. Using the balance scale and a fresh small paper cup, measure out 20 g of mashed banana peelings, and carefully place the 20 g of peelings inside one of the bottles labeled Cow Manure + Mashed Vegetable Peelings. Throw the paper cup away. 14. Repeat this step until all three bottles with this label have 20 g of Mashed Banana Peelings inside. 15. Using the balance scale and a different small paper cup, measure out 20 g of cow manure and carefully pour the 20 g of cow manure…
into a small dish. Test tape was placed in the water sample. The test tape was left in the water sample until there was no longer a change in colour. The test tape was removed and excess water was shaken off. The colour of the test tape was compared to the colour charts. The pH of the solution was…
and there are still risks for breaches and potentially a big possibility of disclosing patient’s important medical and personal records. On September 8, 2011, Nemours, a Children’s Health System reported missing three unencrypted computer backup tapes that were locked and stored in a cabinet in the Nemours Health System facility in Delaware. These backup…
For the project, experimenters need to test how pressure affects the distance a football can travel. One hypothesis is that if pressure is added to the football, then the distance the ball projects will increase when distance is a function of pressure. The independent variable for this experiment is the amount of pressure that is in the football, and the dependent variable is the distance that the football proceeds according to pressure. Furthermore, for a control, one can inflate the football…
hit a crack and flung into a different direction. I moved to a different area so it didn't happen again. ACCURACY I did use the appropriate tool to measure my results I used a tape measure which is very accurate. An error that was made with measuring because of the Equipment was that the ball are round which made it hard to find something flat to measure, if it was flat it would be even more accurate. CONCLUSION: My hypothesis was wrong because out of the three balls tested the soccer ball…
However, one tape had a huge eighteen minute gap in it. Although nobody truly knows what dialogue was missing from the tapes, it was known that the conversation was between Nixon and chief of staff, Haldeman. Nixon’s secretary, Rosemary Woods, claimed that the gap was due to her own fault when transcribing the tapes. She stated that he accidentally hit the record button instead of stop, which deleted the missing sections of the tape. At the hearings, Woods was unable to recreate…
