25Circulatory System
- Pulse refers to the blood pumping through your
arteries - Apical Pulse
- Radial Pulse
- Carotid Pulse
26ESSENTIAL QUESTION
- What do the heart and an Ipod have in common?
27I my Ipod!!!
- Both must have a source of electricity, both can
provide an interesting beat, both can be heard
with the human ear.

29 Assess your own PulseActivity 1
- Step 1 Use one or two fingers to touch
(palpate) your radial pulse. - Step 2 Count the number of beats you
palpate for one minute. Record - this result.
- Step 3 Repeat Step 2 three more times and
record all results. -
30Assess your own PulseActivity 2
- Step 1 Locate your apical pulse using the
- provided chart.
- Step 2 Using a stethoscope, listen to or
auscultate your apical pulse. - Step 3 Count your apical pulse for one
minute and record this apical pulse. - Step 4 Repeat Step 3 three more times and
record your results.
31Radial vs. Apical Pulse
- Compare your radial pulse count and your apical
pulse counts. - Where they the same?
- Where they different?
- Discuss your thoughts about your analysis of the
two pulse results.
32 CONGRATULATIONS! YOU USED SOME TOOLS OF THE
TRADE AND SKILLS PRACTICED IN THE FIELD OF
MEDICINE!

ANALYSIS AND DOCUMENTATION!
34Listen to the beat
- Listen these heart sounds from
- Learning Cardiac Auscultation CD
produced by Cardionics,Inc.
35ESSENTIAL QUESTION

37Math in Medicine
How many times will your heart beat in one
year? Enter the number of beats in 30 seconds
40 CALCULATE to see your beats per minute 80
Per hour 4800 Per day 115,200 Per year
42,048,000
38More Math in MedicineHow much blood does your
heart pump in one minute?
- Reference for this math exercise Science Museum
of Minnesota http//www.smm.org/heart/lessons/less
on2 - Terms you need to know
- Cardiac Output amount of blood your heart pumps
in one minute - Cardiac Index how much blood is pumped per
minute for every square meter of body surface
area - Body Surface Area refers to the amount of
surface on the outside of your body, for example,
the amount of skin surface you have - Nomogram a picture tool to help you solve a
puzzle
39Do this so you can calculate your Cardiac Output
- Step 1- Measure your height using the height
scale. - Step 2 Measure your weight using the weight
scale. - Step 3 Use the nomogram to determine your body
surface area per square meter.
40Calculate your Cardiac Output
- Multiply your body surface area by the Cardiac
Index which is a given variable of 2.75
l/m2/minute. - Your math problem is set up this way
Body Surface area in m2 from nomogram X
Cardiac Index of 2.75l/m2 Cardiac Output in
___liters minute
41What is your Cardiac Output?
- Share your Cardiac Output results.
- How does your volume per minute compare to a 2
liter beverage bottle?
42Take it a few beats further
- How much blood is pumped in an hour, a day and in
a year? - If 4 liters per minute, 60 minutes in an hour so
4 X 60 240 liters per hour. - If 240 liters per hour, 24 hours in a day so
- 24 X 240 5760 liters per day.
- If 5760 liters per day, 365 days in a year so
5760 X 365 2,102,400 liters per year.
432,102,400 liters of blood pumped per year!How
many 2 liter Cokes in a year?
- Compare the volume of liters of blood pumped per
year to volume of 2 liter Cokes in a year. - Thats
- TEN MILLION FIVE HUNDRED TWELVE THOUSAND TWO
(10,512,002) 2 liter Cokes a year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
44The Cardiac Index Where did in come from?
- How much blood the heart pumps for every square
meter of surface area, the cardiac index, varies
with the age of the individual. For children ages
10 13, the average cardiac index is 2.75
liters/m2/minute at a resting state.
45Heart Problems

- Its broken, can we fix it?
46Pathophysiology One example of disease
affecting the heart is Coronary Artery Disease.
