(a)
normal temperature for axilliary
(a)
normal temperature for rectal
(a)
normal temperature for tympanic
(a)
A dangerous reaction to anesthesia
(a)
unusually high body temperature
(a)
process by which heat is transferred by movement of heated fluid such as air or water
(a)
heat is given off from the body and released in the cooler air temperature
(a)
heat is released from the body through perspiration and respiration
(a)
transfer of heat from the body to a cooler source
(a)
it is the gradual reduction of sickness symptoms; a type of recovery process.
(a)
result of exposure to cold or windy situations in which the bosy stored energy is depleted, and the temperature begins to decline
(a)
a stage in a course of a disease, especially of an acute pyretic disease
(a)
It is used to describe excessive, abnormal perspiration in relation to the environment and degree of activity. It affects the entire body rather than just one section.
(a)
Another name for Diaphoresis
(a)
the temperature of the body's internal organs such as the heart, kidney, and blood.
(a)
it is the temperature of the skin and is measured with a handheld infrared thermometer
(a)
the heartbeat is caused by regular widening of the artery as blood passes through
(a)
9 pulse locations from top to bottom
(a)
the measure of one's heart rate; the rate at which heart beats per minute
(a)
It is the product of the heart rate and stroke volume
(a)
formula for cardiac output
(a)
it is the volume of blood expelled from the ventricle during each cardiac cycle
(a)
it is the difference between end-diastolic and end-systolic volume
(a)
the formula for stroke volume output
(a)
areas away from the center of the body
(a)
a pulse location on the left side of the chest
(a)
what is the normal bpm/heart rate of an adult
(a)
an abnormally quick heartbeat that is greater than 100 bpm
(a)
heart rate is slow
(a)
a consistent heartbeat, such as a ticking clock or your heartbeat; a pattern of lengthy and short sounds.
(a)
a disturbance with your heartbeat's pace or rhythm caused by disruptions in your heart's usual sequence of electrical impulses
(a)
identify the type of heartbeat
(a)
identify the type of heartbeat
(a)
identify the type of heartbeat
(a)
identify the type of heartbeat
(a)
something that starts and stops or happens irregularly
(a)
the extent to which an artery expands during diastole and systole
(a)
the force of your blood pushing against the walls of your arteries. each time your heart beats, it pumps blood into the arteries.
(a)
it is the process of breathing in; occurs via active contraction of muscles such as the diapragm
(a)
the process of breathing out; the act of releasing air from the lungs through the nose or mouth
(a)
diffusion of gasses between bodily fluids (blood and interstitial fluid) and tissues
(a)
the process of breathing/ventilation
(a)
increase respiration in which CO2 is removed from the circulation increases.
(a)
the body's CO2 level increases resulting to shallow or too sluggish breathing. this results to an acid buildup and lack of oxygen
(a)
a type of breathing that needs the intercostal muscles to contract.
(a)
full oxygen exchange; exchange of incoming oxygen for exiting CO2. this stabilizes or lowers blood pressure.
(a)
the number of breaths a person takes per minute
(a)
normal, relaxed breathing; a healthy condition of inhalation and exhalation
(a)
medical term used to describe that breathing has slowed or ceased
(a)
involves slowly and profoundly breathing through the nose, which fills the lungs and expands the belly
(a)
drawing a minimal amount of air into the lungs, using intercostal muscles rather than the diaphragm to bring air into the chest area
(a)
the volume of air in the lungs upon the maximum effort of inspiration
(a)
the quality, rhythm, and pace of one's breathing are all measured. Can either be a regular or irregular beat. Describes using unlabored, labored, gasping, wheezing, or laborious.
(a)
the passive movement of particles along with a concentration gradient (gas exchange in the alveoli)
(a)
refers to the blood flow to tissues and organs. capillaries perfused alveoli so the diffusion of oxygen and CO2 can take place.
(a)
the pressure when your heart pushes blood out. It is the first or top one in the measurement
(a)
the pressure when your heart rests between beats. this is the time when the heart fills with blood and gets oxygen.
(a)
the difference between systolic and diastolic pressures
(a)
occurs when the force of blood pushing through your vessels is consistently too high. Above 140/90 mmHg
(a)
occurs when blood pressure is much lower than normal. This means that the heart, brain, and othe rparts of the body do not get enough blood.
(a)
what is the normal blood pressure?
(a)
refers to an increase in blood pressure upon assuming an upright posture. Diagnosed by a rise in systolic blood pressure of greater than or equal to 20 mmHg when standing
(a)
derived from the pumping action of the heart's left ventricle; reflect the functioning of the left ventricles.
(a)
known as the silent gap or a period of absent korotkoff sounds. Associated with reduced peripheral blood flow
(a)
the sounds detected by the stethoscope in the ausultatory blood pressure measurement.
(a)
defined as the average pressure in a patient's arteries during one cardiac cycle
(a)
widening of blood vessels due to relaxation of the blood vessels. This enhances blood flow to areas of the body lacking oxygen and nutrients.
(a)
