During exercise HR will increase. 2. During exercise SV will decrease. 3. During exercise CO will increase. Materials and Methods 1. Dependent Variable EDV, ESV, and cardiac cycle length 2. Independent Variable level of physical activity(resting or exercise) 3. Controlled Variables age, weight, height 4. What instrument was used to measure cardiac volumes? ECG machine 5. Does the instrument used to measure cardiac volume use X-Rays? Explain. No, the ECG machine does not use dye's or X-Ray's. It is a noninvasive test perfromed by attaching eletrodes to the outside of the body and then by detecting and tracing heart rhythm.

...9/20/12 HSC420 Lab Report 1-3 I. Introduction In lab 1, the heart rate and blood pressure were established. The principles that govern each of them are those of the heart. The heart rate (HR) is each full beat, or each pump, the heart does; this is recorded in beats per minute (bpm). The blood pressure (BP) is the amount of resistance the heart works against the arterial walls during each pump. My hypothesis for this lab was that my subject would have the same HR and BP for each of the locations and different methods used. I stated this because, at rest, the heart should be working at the same level no matter the position; although one position might slight lessen the heart’s workload. This is important in terms of my subject’s health and fitness because it means he has a normal, young strong heart. Per minute, it is important for the numbers to be lower because it means his heart is not working too hard but can supply his body with a sufficient amount of blood. In lab 2, the establishment of HR and BP were taken to another level and recorded during different exercises. The principles of this are that my subject’s HR and BP would gradually increase throughout exercise. Physiologically, this is because of the increased demand of oxygen in the working muscles. An increase of HR and BP is the heart’s response to these demands; a faster HR means that the heart is supplying the body with blood at a quicker rate; the higher BP is the high pressure the heart is working against...

...Harvard Business School 9-698-004 July 8, 1997 We’ve Got Rhythm! Medtronic Corporation’s Cardiac Pacemaker Business The legacy of Medtronic Corporation, the company that created the cardiac pacemaker industry, is a proud one. Starting from its earliest pacemakers, which had to be carried outside the body, Medtronic had achieved dramatic improvements in the functionality, size and reliability of these devices. In so doing it had extended the lives, and improved the quality of life, for hundreds of thousands of people in whom pacemakers had been implanted. The pacemaker has been designated as one of the ten most outstanding engineering achievements in the world over the past 50 years, along with the digital computer and the Apollo 11 moon landing. 1 Medtronic, which in 1995 booked operating profit of $300 million on revenues of $1.7 billion, had been founded in 1957 in Minneapolis, Minnesota by Earl Bakken, a researcher and inventor who had to his credit patents on several of the crucial technologies that led to the modern heart pacemaker. Pacemakers were small, battery-powered devices which, when implanted within a patient, helped a malfunctioning heart to beat in a steady, fixed rhythm. Because Medtronic was the first entrant into the pacemaker field and built a strong technological lead, it enjoyed a substantial portion (over 70%) of the market share for cardiac pacing through the 1960s. Building upon Medtronic’s legacy of leadership was not easy, however...

...effectively to meet the body’s needs for nutrients or has lost adequate filling capacity. Clinical presentations of heart failure depends on which ventricles have failed to pump blood adequately; left ventricular failure, also known as congestive heart failure (CHF) is more common than right ventricular failure (McCance & Huether, 2014). The most common symptoms of heart failure are shortness of breath, fatigue, and peripheral edema. HF is not a disease, but rather a manifestation of a diseased heart. Large number of disorders can lead to heart failure, and with the aging population and many surviving primary cardiac events, it is no surprise that the most common reason for hospitalization in patients older than 65 years old is heart failure (McClintock, Mose, & Smith, 2014). Heart failure has become a major public health problem because it is the only cardiac condition that continues to increase in prevalence (McClintock, Mose, & Smith, 2014). Organizations such as American Heart Association (AHA), National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), and Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) are helping raise awareness and are invaluable resources to the increasing heart failure population. Because heart failure affects so many Americans, it is important to discuss heart failure in its complexity and analyze the pathology...

...Prevention of Hospital Readmissions Related to Symptoms of Congestive Heart Failure NRS 441V Professional Capstone March 1, 2014 Abstract Providing patients diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure effective teaching can eliminate reoccurring hospitalizations. Patients are discharged with CHF and readmitted within 30 days. The information provided will examine the process of enhancing patient knowledge and provide additional resources essential for effective health care management. Research evidence provides data that proves patients who are diagnosed with CHF needs a variety of health care needs during admission and after discharge. The proposal will display an evaluation plan, implementation plan and a dissemination of the evidence. Provide at least 1 evidence based literature; for at least 1 evidence based solution. Keywords: congestive heart failure, therapy, education, patient outcomes Description of the Problem Prevention of Hospital Readmissions Related to Symptoms of Congestive Heart Failure Health care providers must ensure skills, knowledge and teaching is effective when providing care to their patients and families about symptoms of CHF. The length of stay for an average hospital visit can be two days however, for more chronic issues warrant an even longer stay. To avoid readmission of the disease processes of CHF warrants additional care and resources during and after discharge. . Some patients cannot follow up with their primary care physician because...

...potential is generated which causes voltage gated calcium channels to open which allow entry of calcium into the axon. This results in fusion of vesicle with pre-synaptic membrane and release of neurotransmitter acetylcholine into synaptic cleft. Acetylcholine receptors located on the postsynaptic membrane bind with acetylcholine resulting in cholinergic response. Acetylcholine also has the ability to binds to receptors on the pre- synaptic neuron, which inhibits the release of more acetylcholine demonstrating negative feedback loop. The enzyme acetylcholinesterase also has the ability to breakdown acetylcholine found in the synaptic cleft to choline and acetate. This allows for more choline to be taken up by presynaptic neurons to repeat the cycle...
