Cardiovascular Physiology Exam Questions
with correct answers provided
Pulse - ✅✅-indirect measure of HB
-BPM
- average: 70-75BPM
What Are the two types of pulse that can be measured? - ✅✅Apical Pulse & Superficial pulse
Apical Pulse - ✅✅-taken at the heart
-Use stethoscope to hear "lub dub" & count them per min
Superficial pulse - ✅✅-Taken at peripheral arteries
-palpate the peripheral arteries to feel the surge
Define Pressure points - ✅✅places where pulse is felt
Pulse deficit - ✅✅-low Cardiac Output
-Normal herat rythms
What does deficit indicate? - ✅✅if there is something wrong with the heart
Blood Pressure - ✅✅-Force of blood out of heart hitting the arteries
Sys - ✅✅Systolic pressure during ventricular ejection
120 mmHg
DIA - ✅✅diastolic pressure caused when the elastic arteries recoil
