Heart Rate Lab
PURPOSE: The purpose of this experiment is to find your resting and active heart rates.
HYPOTHESIS: If I am active then my heart rate will be higher than my resting heart rate.
SAFETY: A safety concern during this experiment is becoming out of breath or faint from doing a physical activity to raise your heart rate.
EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN:
The control setup of the experiment is my heart rate.
The independent variable of the experiment is doing jumping jacks.
The dependent variable of the experiment is my resting heart rate.
PROCEDURE:
1. While sitting quietly at your desk, find the pulse in your wrist and count the beats for one minute. Record the names of both subjects and their beats per minute heart rate.
2. Repeat step one, two more times for each subject. Record the data.
3. Calculate the average pulse rate for each subject and record the results on DATA TABLE 1.
4. Construct a data table below and place all of the recorded data in the data table.

document to report your findings from the CardioLab Exploration Experiment. The lab report consists of three sections: Data, Exploration, and Lab Summary. • Data: copy any data, graphs, charts, or notes that you have saved in your CardioLab online notebook into this section. • Exploration: Answer the questions. The questions in the Exploration section are the same questions in your CardioLab instructions. • Lab Summary: Write a 100- to 200-word summary. Data To copy your data from your…
Healthy?” Purpose: Station 1: What is the relationship between health and blood pressure? Station 2: What is the effect of exercise on heart rate? Station 3: What is the effect of exercise on respiration? Hypothesis: Station 1: If I compare my blood pressure with the chart then I will determine that I am healthy or Unhealthy. Station 2: If I exercise then my heart rate will increase. Station 3: If I exercise my respiration will increase. Materials: Sphygmomanometer Stethoscope Test Tube With Bromothymol…
Exercise vs. Heart Rate Problem: How will exercise affect the test subject’s heart rate? Background Information: After the test subject performed a specific exercise multiple times with different timed intervals, the heart rate was recorded to see if there was a change depending on the exertion spent while performing ‘firefeet’. When the test subject is performing ‘firefeet’, the arms should be tucked in close to the side of the body and the feet should be running as fast and hard as possible…
how well your body functions physically, relative to how well it should work, given your age. The researchers took 5,000 Norwegians between the ages of 20 to 90 years old. They gauged it with 12 variables including height, body mass index, resting heart rate, HDL and total cholesterol levels. Each person also filled out a lengthy lifestyle questionnaire. Lastly, each volunteer ran to the point of exhaustion on a treadmill to pinpoint his or her peak oxygen intake (VO2 max), or how well the body delivers…
Cardiac Case Study Lindsay Schmidt GTCC Complex Health Concepts NUR 213 Crittenden, Booher, Brendley, & Teal January 23, 2014 Case Study: Cardiac Catheterization Client Profile: Robert Wilson is a 55 year old male with a history of angina, hypertension, Type 2 diabetes, COPD, and sleep apnea. He comes to the physician’s office complaining of worsening shortness of breath. His skin tone is grey, and his angina is worsening. Previously stable, he now does not get relief from rest or nitroglycerin…
Organ Transplants Have you ever been watching TV and organ donor commercials come on? Or have you read articles in the newspapers and science magazines, where someone is one step closer to growing a heart or liver in a lab? Seriously, how do they keep a person alive during operations like that? I honestly can’t fathom the kind of technology that we came up with; doctors cannot just save a person’s life but increase their quantity and quality of it. The first successful organ transplant happened…

heartburn. Her sister tells the nurse, "I felt like that when I had toxemia during my pregnancy." Admission assessment by the nurse reveals: today's weight 182 pounds, T 99.1° F, P 76, R 22, BP 138/88, 4+ pitting edema, and 3+ protein in the urine. Heart rate is regular, and lung sounds are clear. Deep tendon reflexes (DTRs) are 3+ biceps and triceps and 4+ patellar with 1 beat of ankle clonus.[pic][pic] The nurse applies the…
Variables Affecting Human Arterial Pressure and Pulse Rate BIOL-204 Introduction: The woozy feeling when standing up too quickly. After going for a run, feeling as if one more beat and the heart would project itself out of the chest. Or quite the opposite and being in a very relaxed state. These are all changes one experiences at some time or another. What causes the different feelings and how each variable affects pulse rate and blood pressure has many wondering. Because of this curiosity…
