My Foolish Heart

however, they are very different. While cardiology involves humans and their hearts, marine biology deals with organisms in the ocean. Zoology is dealing with the animal kingdom and their classifications. Cardiology is compelling because the study deals with the heart. This organ is about the size of a fist and can pump approximately 5 ¼ quarts of blood per minute. Pumping roughly 2,000 gallons of blood a day, the heart is one of the most important organs in the body. Without it, one simply…

which can arise in various situations from unexpected events out of hospitals to the foreseeable ones in intensive care units (4). In the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) procedure, there are efforts to restore two vital organs of the body (the heart and the lung) through resuscitation in order to assist in possible patient survival. The CPR in the past was performed in the form of blowing air through the mouth, giving chest compressions, and sometimes inducing physically painful stimuli.…

Abstract Caffeine is the most used stimulant worldwide and has shown ergogenic properties that enhances performance during exercise. It alters cyclic AMP processes that trigger the activation of cardiomyocytes that regulate beating of the heart. It has also been shown to increase ventilatory responses by feedforward signals. The purpose of this experiment was to test the effects of caffeine on cardiovascular and respiratory responses during an exercise to exhaustion test. It was hypothesized…

Kambiz: Chronic cases of hypo hypernatremia. We usually send the blood sample to [xx] to measure serum osmolality, and we calculate the difference between the measured and the calculated serum osmolality mainly to see if there is a difference which is usually greater than nine. We call it a small gap that suggests something other than urea, nitrogen glucose, or sodium is contributing to serum osmolality. And this is usually an intoxication with alcohols and infusion of high plasma osmolality [?]…

In this paper wavelet based decomposition and reduction of EMG signal. Electromyography (EMG) signal is a biological parameter that recording the electrical activity of the muscles. It is a diagnostic tool to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them. The different levels of daubechies wavelet family are used to analyze the EMG signal. The EMG feature extracted from different level decomposition and reconstruction of the EMG signal. We used a single channel electrode…

Definition: “Swan-Ganz catheterization involves the passage of a catheter into the right side of the heart to obtain diagnostic information about the heart and to provide continuous monitoring of heart function and pulmonary circulation pressure in critically ill patients.” Indications o Diagnostic  Diagnosis of shock states  Differentiation of high- low-pressure pulmonary oedema  Diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PPH)  Diagnosis of valvular disease, intracardiac shunts, cardiac…

Selling organs such as, kidneys and partial livers, are in speculation as to whether it violates moral respect for human life. The good donor claim indicates, “it is and ought to be legal for a living person to donate one of his or her kidneys to someone else who needs a kidney in order to survive”. The sale of tissue claim indicates, “it is and ought to be legal for living persons to sell parts of their bodies” (Gill & Sade, 20). Thus, one should be allowed to sell his or her organs to a…

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a non-invasive radiological technique used for evaluating the heart providing details about its structure and functions. CMR has gained a lot of clinical application over the years as it provides high image quality and precision. The advantages of CMR over other imaging modalities include the high natural contrast between the intravascular blood pool and the intracardiac blood pool it provides, lack of ionizing radiation, and its three-dimensional imaging…

extremely beneficial for a lot of heart patients and its continuous development is a ray of hope for a longer and easier life for a lot of patients. A pacemaker is an implantable medical engineering device that revives the heartbeat to a normal rate. It is helpful in alleviating symptoms of bradycardia, a type of heart disorder in which the heart beats at less than 60 beats per minute, a rate that might not be healthy for the body. A pacemaker works by fueling the heart muscle with accurately…

location of hemengioma it worsen the situation like if hemengioma s in larynx than it result in difficulty in breathing, if it appear near eye than it affect the soft tissues and causes occlusion of eye (19). Very seldom large hemangiomas burden the heart to supply oxygen in growing lesions and sometime bone erosion occur when it appear near bone. The most common complaint about hemengioma is psychological effect that is due to person’s disfiguring appearance. Problem starts when child become…
