Introduction: Systolic blood pressure‚ the highest pressure in the cardiac cycle‚ measures the pressure in the arteries as the left ventricle contracts. Diastolic blood pressure‚ the lowest pressure in the cardiac cycle‚ measures the pressure in the arteries as the ventricles relax and refill with blood just before the next ventricular contraction. We measure blood pressure using a sphygmomanometer and a stethoscope. To measure the systolic pressure‚ place the blood pressure cuff on the upper arm and

Impact of Pressure Ulcers on Nursing Care Theory Project May 15‚ 2013 ADN 151 The issue that I identified as a healthcare safety topic currently impacting nursing is pressure ulcers. A pressure ulcer is localized injury to the skin and/or underlying tissue usually over a bony prominence‚ as a result of pressure‚ or pressure in combination with shear and/or friction. I chose this topic for my paper because as a future nurse I would like to be able to prevent any new injuries

Cricoid Pressure Summer Magdaleno SJVC-STT11 Abstract Airway management is the most important clinical skill for anesthesia care providers‚ emergency physicians‚ and other care providers that help with ventilation and oxygenation to the lungs. Cricoid pressure was discovered in 1961‚ by Dr. Sellick‚ therefore cricoid pressure is also known as Sellick’s maneuver. The cricoid pressure is used to reduce the risk of aspiration prior to induction of anesthesia and continued until the endotracheal tube

Breaking a Ruler with Atmospheric Pressure Introduction In this experiment‚ I will try to use air pressure‚ along with some sheets of newspaper‚ to attempt to break a ruler. Air pressure is the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on the earth. A device called a barometer measures it in units called millibars. Most barometers use mercury in a glass column‚ like a thermometer‚ to measure the change in air pressure. I came up with this idea from when I read in a book about how some kids tried to

Pressure Distribution around a Symmetric Aerofoil Abstract: The following report is based on an experiment conducted to calculate the lift curve slope for a symmetrical aerofoil subjected to varying angles of attack. Pressure readings were taken at different points on the upper and lower surface of the aerofoil. The report concludes that maximum lift is generated between 12 º -15º‚ which is also the stall point. It also states that region close to the leading edge contributes most to the lift force
