Chapter 20, Problem 20.1.3AYLO
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The location and orientation are of the heart relative to adjacent organs and the median plane of the body.
Introduction:
The circulatory system is a double system that means there are two individual systems of blood flow; pulmonary circulation and systemic circulation. The human heart is composed of two separated pumps, the right, and left atrium and the ventricle. The right side helps in pumping deoxygenated blood into the pulmonary circulation, whereas the left side helps in pumping oxygenated blood into the systemic circulation. The great vessels are the crucial vessel that carries oxygenated and deoxygenated blood from the heart to other parts of the body.

The pulse may be felt easily on any superficial artery when the artery is compressed over a bone or firm tissue. Palpate the pulse by placing the fingertips of the first two or three fingers of one hand over the radial artery. It helps to compress the artery firmly as you begin your palpation and then immediately ease up on the pressure slightly. Notice the regularity of the pulse, and assess the degree of tension or amplitude. With your sitting quietly, practice counting the radial pulse for 1 minute. Make three counts and average the results. Upload your results in the correct file format: docx, PDF, Jeg or PNG. If you do not know how to measure pulse rate watch this video.
