24-Hour Blood Pressure Monitoring In some patients‚ an elevated blood pressure reading taken during an office visit may not truly indicate hypertension—it could just be an occasional occurrence. These individuals are given a portable device to record their blood pressure over a 24-hour period. This helps us more accurately determine whether or not a patient usually has high blood pressure and requires treatment. Advanced Lipid Profile An advanced lipid profile test gives more information than

It’s a Tuesday. I’m finishing my workout at my neighborhood gym. I walk into the locker room‚ throw my clothes off‚ and head to the showers. The water is warm. I’m feeling like a real go-getter. The endorphins‚ the steam – it’s relaxing. Veeery relaxing. I take a handful of the shower gel that the gym supplies in buckets and start lathering up. I’m making sure things are clean down there. Really‚ really clean. (Not really‚ readers – I’m jerking off. Duh.) So I’m a showerbater; I admit it. I like

A pressure gauge is an instrument that measures the pressure in a vessel‚ a line‚ or whatever the pressure gauge is connected to. A Bourdon gauge consists of a C-shaped pipe with one end closed and the other end attached to a chamber whose pressure is being measured. When there is a pressure difference between the inside of the pipe and the outside‚ there will be a net force acting on the C-shaped pipe which will either try to curl the pipe into a tighter C shape (if the pressure in the pipe is

Lab activity 1: Effect of temperature‚ concentration‚ and pressure on equilibrium Introduction Our ongoing discussion has been on systems at dynamic equilibrium: for a reversible reaction‚ the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction. What happens if equilibrium is disturbed? In this lab activity‚ we are going to examine the effect of changing reaction conditions on the position of equilibrium. Part I: Effect of temperature We will consider the equilibrium

Air Pressure Air is composed of molecules. Air is matter. It has mass and takes up space. Air is composed of different gases such as nitrogen‚ oxygen‚ carbon dioxide‚ water vapor‚ and other gases. Air molecules are in constant motion. As they move‚ they come in contact with surfaces. Air molecules push and press on the surfaces they contact. The amount of force per unit area that air molecules exert on a surface is called air pressure. (What is Air Pressure 6) Air pressure is caused by all

Peer pressure I. We often hear about the dangers of peer pressure to teenagers. A. Teenagers take drugs‚ skip school‚ get drunk‚ or have sex because their friends do these things. Desperate to conform to their friends’ values‚ teens may give up their interests in school‚ in hobbies‚ and even in certain people. B. Teenagers may‚ first of all‚ lose or hide their interest in school in order to be like their friends. They adopt a negative attitude in which school is seen as a battlefield‚ with

within a living cell is the plasma membrane. • Hypotonic : ➢ Having a lesser osmotic pressure in a fluid compared to another fluid‚ as in a ‘hypotonic solution’ – compare: hypertonic and isotonic • Hypertonic: ➢ Having a higher osmotic pressure in a fluid relative to another fluid. • Isotonic: ➢ Having the same (or equal) osmotic pressure and same water potential since the two solutions have an equal concentration of water molecules.

Assessing Blood Pressure Anatomy of the Heart The heart is located in the thoracic cavity between the lungs within the mediastinum. It is a hollow‚ cone-shaped‚ muscular organ about the size of a fist. Functions of the Heart keeps O2-poor blood separate from O2-rich blood; keeps the blood flowing in one direction—blood flows away from and then back to the heart in each circuit; creates blood pressure‚ which moves the blood through the circuits; Regulates the blood supply based on
