Bradycardia - ANS slow heart rate (<60 bpm)
Tachycardia - ANS Fast heart rate (HR greater than 100bpm)
Normal Heart rate - ANS 60-100 bpm
Biot's Breathing pattern - ANS Cyclic breathing pattern characterized by shallow breathing
alternating with periods of apnea. Seen in head trauma, neurologic issues and heatstroke.
Cheyne-Stokes - ANS cyclic breathing pattern of gradual increase in depth and breathing,
followed by apnea, seen often in impending death, CHF, drug overdose, and increased
intracranial pressure
Kussmaul - ANS -increased rate >20/min and depth of respirations
Conditions: metabolic acidosis, diabetic ketoacidosis, renal failure
normal breathing rate - ANS 12-20 breaths per minute

, Pulse Quality Normal - ANS 2+- Normal not easily obliterated
Apnea - ANS absence of breathing for 10 seconds or more
dyspnea - ANS difficulty breathing
Vital signs - ANS Measurements of the body's most basic functions and useful in detecting or
monitoring medical problems. Include Temperature, Pulse, Respiration, O2 Saturation, BP, and
Pain (Subjective)
BMI - ANS Body Mass index
Underweight BMIs - ANS <18
Contraindications for Rectal temp usage - ANS -Do not take rectal in patients with orthostatic
hypotension (can cause vagal reaction), or unconscious
Pulse - ANS throbbing of arteries due to difference in pulse pressures, which can be felt
under skin
blood pressure - ANS Pressure exerted by the blood upon the walls of the blood vessels,
especially arteries, usually measured by means of a sphygmomanometer and expressed in
millimeters of mercury.
BP formula - ANS CO x PVR (Cardiac output x Peripheral Vascular resistance)
