| human heart anatomy and physiology: Cardiovascular Physiology Concepts Richard E. Klabunde, 2005 This uniquely readable, compact, and concise monograph lays a foundation of knowledge of the underlying concepts of normal cardiovascular function. Students welcome the book's broad overview as a practical partner or alternative to a more mechanistically oriented approach or an encyclopedic physiology text. Especially clear explanations, ample illustrations, a helpful glossary of terms, tutorials, and chapter-opening learning objectives provide superb guidance for self-directed learning and help fill the gap in many of today's abbreviated physiology blocks. A focus on well-established cardiovascular principles reflects recent, widely accepted cardiovascular research. The supplemental CD-ROM is an interactive, dynamically linked version of the book, which is organized by normal cardiovascular function and cardiac disease. Students may begin a path of questioning with, for example, a disease condition and then pursue background information through a series of links. Students can also link to the author's regularly updated Web site for additional clinical information. |

| human heart anatomy and physiology: Study Guide to Human Anatomy and Physiology 2 Michael T. Harrell, 2012-09-01 Welcome everyone to your guide to Human Anatomy & Physiology 2! This text will cover endocrine system, blood, heart, arteries, veins, lymphatic system, respiratory system, digestive system, urinary system, water, electrolytes, acids, reproductive system and development. I have been teaching college level human anatomy and physiology for many years, as well as other courses. My other classes taught have included: pathophysiology, biology, zoology, microbiology, and others. In this time I have seen thousands of students. I have learned through the years the best ways to learn the most information in the least amount of time. There are two ways to study, smart or hard. If you will follow my information and learn the key points of each chapter, you will make an excellent grade in your A&P class. In each chapter concentrate your efforts on learning the key terms. The key terms are the ones you are most likely to see on your exams. Learn to associate words and how to connect them. For example, anatomy is the study of the structure of the human body. Look at the key words in this sentence, anatomy and structure. Learn how to pick out these key terms and remember them, not the entire sentence or paragraph full of information. When given a paragraph, page or whatever; just memorize the key words and then learn how to associate them. Learn what they have in common and be able to speak from one word to the next. This will be the best way to learn your anatomy text. I will make the assumption that anyone reading this book is taking human anatomy and physiology. You will still need your text, but more as a reference to pictures and such. This guide will give you the important information from the chapters, which will be what you are most likely to see on an exam. Sample questions will be included, which are also the most likely for you to see on an exam. Note also that this book is not a guide for A&P lab. An anatomy lab book is little more than a book with lots of pictures in it. That is what anatomy is, memorizing parts and pieces of the body. You simply look at the picture in your book and then learn those parts on a model. You may be looking at a skull, brain, kidney, etc., it is simple memorization. This book is more to help you with the lecture. |

| human heart anatomy and physiology: Human Anatomy and Physiology / As Per PCI - ER 2020 Dr. Naveen Garg, Dr. Sanwar Mal Yadav, Ms. Shweta Bhandari, Mr. Vipin Kumar Singhal, 2023-03-27 The scientific study of the human body's structures is known as anatomy. Some of such structures are quite tiny, making the use of the microscope essential for their examination. It is simple to see, handle, measure, and weigh other, bigger structures. The Greek origin of the word for anatomy implies to cut apart. Human anatomy was first studied by looking at people's scars and other external signs of injury. Later on, doctors were permitted to learn more by dissecting human corpses. Dissection is the process of separating parts of a body so that their individual properties and connections may be studied. Medical schools, anatomy classes, and pathology laboratories all make use of dissection today. However, several imaging methods have been created to allow for the observation of structures in live persons. Using these methods, doctors may see malignant tumours or broken bones inside a live patient. The focus of physiology is on function, whereas anatomy is more concerned with structure. Human physiology is the scientific study of a body's structures and their chemical and physical interactions to maintain life. The human body's natural propensity toward homeostasis is at the heart of most research in the field of physiology. Maintaining a constant internal environment is called homeostasis in biology. Observation, using both the naked eye and the manipulation, microscopes, and measurement are all integral parts of a physiologist's toolkit. However, modern physiology progresses mostly via well-planned laboratory studies that elucidate the roles of the numerous structures and chemical components that comprise the human body. |
| human heart anatomy and physiology: ECG Based Analysis of the Ventricular Repolarisation in the Human Heart Baas, Tobias, 2012-08-06 ECG recordings provide diagnostic relevant information on the de- and repolarisation sequences of the heart. A modification of the repolarisation sequence is assumed to cause Torsades de Pointes. Especially drug induced effects on the repolarisation processes are in focus, since some non-cardiac drugs have been associated with sudden cardiac death in the 1990s.The analysis of the ventricular repolarisation using a set of parameters depicting the morphology of the T-wave is introduced in this work. Therefore, new methods of fully automatic patient-specific QRS detection, beat classification and precise T-wave delineation are presented. Using these methods, medical studies are investigated regarding the modification of the T-wave by different compounds. Also the impact of the heart rate on the morphology of the T-wave is part of this research.The reliable identification of ventricular ectopic beats allows an analysis of the influence of these beats on subsequent heart beats. It turned out that the morphology of subsequent heart beats can significantly be changed. This might give new information on the proarrythmical risk of ventricular ectopic beats. |
