Objectives:
At the end of this lab, students should be able to:
1.
Determine heart rate, pulse rate and blood pressure using the proper equipment.
2.
Explain the c o n n e c t i o n between heart contraction, pulse and blood pressure.
3.
Determine your t a r g e t
heart rate and recovery index.
4.
Define the abbreviation ?FEV1? and understand its importance
in
understanding your
respiratory health.
Activity 1:
The A n a t o m y of the Heart
T h e
heart
is
a
four-chambered
muscular
pump
whose
contractions create pressure to move the blood through the blood
vessels.
Blood flows into the atria of the heart through veins (the
venae cavae bring blood to the
right atrium and the pulmonary
veins bring blood to the left atrium).
Blood that enters the atria
flows
through
the
atrioventricular
valves
(AV
valves) into
the
v e n t r i c l e s . The ventricles contract at a regular rhythm squeezing
and pushing the blood out into the arteries through the semilunar
valves.
The valves keep the blood moving
in
one direction and
prevent back flow.
A thick wall, the septum, separates the right and left sides.
Blood
from the right ventricle flows through the pulmonary artery to the lungs, while blood from
the left ventricle flows through the
aorta to all
parts of the body.
A
heart beat is one
contraction of the heart.

Heart Rate/Pulse Rate
W h e n the heart pumps blood into the arteries, the walls of the arteries
are
pushed
outward
by
the
wave
of
blood.
The
heart
rate
is
determined by counting the number of waves that Pass a given point
i n a minute.
Place your three middle fingers on the wrist, so that their
tips are just below the thumb.
Don't use your thumb which
has
a
strong pulse in it.
Find a place where your fingers feel the pulse and
count the number o f pulses per minute.
Record below.
a.
W h a t is your resting pulse rate in pulses/minute?

P r e s s u r e :
T h e heart creates blood pressure when it pumps the blood into the arteries.
Because the
walls o f t h e arteries are elastic, they expand outward to accommodate the blood pumped
-during systole and recoil during diastole, keeping the pressure from falling to zero. There
are several w a y s
to
measure blood
pressure.
In this lab exercise we will
use
a
blood
p r e s s u r e cuff attached to a computer. The equipment provides a measure of your systolic
pressure, and your diastolic pressure.
P r o c e d u r e
U s e t h e c o m p u t e r m o u s e to click o n M E A S U R E
in
the computer menu bar, and then click
o n start.
Place the cuff o n the bare skin of your left arm, above the elbow. The rubber tube M U S T
be o v e r the brachial artery (inner side of the arm just above the elbow).
Sit d o w n a n d place y o u r arm on the desk (as close to heart level as possible). Follow the
directions o n t h e screen.
