Heart Rate range -correct answer60-100 BPM resting state
Athlete 40BPM
Tachycardia -correct answer100+ BMP heart rate
Bradycardia -correct answer<60BPM heart rate
respiration rate -correct answer12-20RPM
abnormal-pale skin/cold
vital signs -correct answerprovides diagnostic information for the physician
blood pressure, temperature, pulse, and respirations
ventricles contract -correct answerblood is pushed out of heart and into the aorta and
pulmonary artery
,blood pressure is divided into two section -correct answersystolic/diastolic
systole -correct answerwhen the heart contracts
diastole -correct answerwhen the heart relaxes
sphygmomanometer -correct answerused to measure a patient's blood pressure
Blood pressure procedure -correct answer1. palpate the brachial artery in the antecubital
fossa region of the arm
2. palpate for the brachial pulse in both arms. Use right arm
3. position the patients arm in an outstretched relaxed position at heart level.
4. center the bladder of the blood pressure cuff over the brachial artery
5. blood pressure cuff 1 inch above bend in elbow
6.hold stethoscope between 1st and 2nd fingers/thumb not over it
7. bell completely touching the skin
8. release the dial on the bulb by 2mm per second
9 First beat note the number on the dial- SYSTOLIC READING
10.Continue listening until beats have stopped-
DIASTOLIC READING
120/80mm Hg
patients heart rate provides information about -correct answerheart's rhythm, volume, and
vessel elasticity
Pulse procedure -correct answer1. palm side of wrist
2.count number of times beat repeats for 30 sec
3.multiply by 2
respiration procedure -correct answer1. do not tell patient
2.count number of times chest rises 30 sec
3.multiply by 2
temperatures -correct answertympanic membrane, temporal artery, axillary, rectal
rectal temperature position -correct answersims
anthropometric measurements -correct answerheight and weight
, to convert celcius to F -correct answer(C x 9/5) +32
to convert F to C -correct answer(F-32) x 5/9
1 pound=.45kg -correct answer
kilograms to pounds -correct answerkilogram x 2.2
pounds to kilograms -correct answerpound x .45
Supine Position -correct answerlaid flat

about 30 degrees
medication administered -correct answeroral, topical, and parenteral
injectable medication -correct answerintramuscular, intradermal, and subcutaneous
intramuscular injection -correct answerseated position exposing deltoid, 3 fingers below
acromial process, aspirate and observe for blood, if no blood inject medication 90 degree
angle
intradermal injection -correct answerseated position 15 degree injection
subcutaneous injection -correct answerupper arm inject 45 degrees aspirate for blood and
then inject medicine
pulmonary function test -correct answeruses spirometer and blow as hard as possible
snellen chart -correct answervision test
routine specimens -correct answermost common urine test
midstream specimen -correct answerurinate a little, collect the sample, and then continue to
empty bladder
