Arrhythmia Information Once an arrhythmia has been documented‚ it’s important to try to find out where it originates. It’s also necessary to find out whether it’s abnormal or merely reflects the heart’s normal processes. The arrhythmia must be abnormal and clinically significant before it warrants treatment. That means it must either cause symptoms or put a person at risk for more serious arrhythmias or complications of arrhythmias in the future. (American Heart Association) Risk Factors:

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. Atrial fibrillation is an irregularity in the atria’s electrical impulses‚ causing a disorderly and rapid rhythm. Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (also termed intermittent atrial fibrillation) is occurrences of AF that spontaneously halt within 7 days of starting. Episodes of AF can last from a few seconds up to a few days in Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The sinoatrial (SA) node is the dominant pacemaker of the heart. Located

Does Exercise Affect Blood Pressure and Heart Rate? Hypothesis If an individual is put through vigorous exercises‚ then his/her blood pressure and heart rate will be affected because of the increase in activity. Dependent Variables Heart Rate (measured in bpm) Blood Pressure (measured in mmhg) Independent Variables Height Weight Physical Fitness Speed on completing exercise Controlled Variables Types of Exercise Materials Cufflink Heart Monitor Test Subjects 1-5 Procedure

Zi Lin January 25‚ 2014 2B Cardiovascular Diseases The heart is an essential organ in the cardiovascular system responsible for pumping oxygen and nutrition filled blood to all parts of the human body. It is composed of four chambers; two upper chambers called the right and left atrium‚ and two lower chambers called the right and left ventricle. A structure called the septum is what divides the heart into right and left halves. Four heart valves keep the flow of blood in one direction. At rest‚ the

Abstract The objective of this study was to observe and record the effects that exercise has on cardiovascular functions such as mean blood pressure‚ cardiac output‚ and total peripheral resistance by comparing each numerical function’s numerical data before and after exercise. Before exercise‚ the mean blood pressure (MPB) was 84.03 mmHg with a standard deviation of 10.3. After exercise‚ MBP was 92.19 with a standard deviation of 10.5. The cardiac output (CO) before exercise was 5.45 Liters/minute

When a person goes into shock‚ their entire cardiovascular system is shutting down. The body first recognizes that it is going into shock and it begins to pull blood and fluid away from the nonessential organs such as the muscles and skin in order to keep blood circulating to the important organs such as the brain‚ heart‚ and lungs. If shock goes untreated the blood flow will continue to decrease until it completely stops. There are many different types of shock that happen for different reasons

THE EFFECTS OF COLD ON BLOOD PRESSURE AND PULSE Abstract The ability known as thermoregulation is a feature of an organism that help to keep the body temperature within certain thresholds‚ thus independently from external conditions. A dynamic state of thermal balance of human body between its internal environment and the territory is a model example of precise control of organism heat. In the case where such stability would be disturbed the immediate response would appear as well. In accordance
