21
Q

Newborn considerations

A
  • Heart beats at 3 weeks gestation
  • Heart position horizontal
22
Q

Children considerations

A
  • HR can increase with inspiration and decrease expiration
23
Q

Pregnancy Considerations

A
  • Blood volume increases by 30-40% thus workload increases
  • Pulse rate increases by 10-15 beats
24
Q

Older adult

A
  • interrelated with lifestyle, habits and disease
  • Systolic BP increases
  • Left ventricular wall thickness increases
  • Dysrhythmia
  • Orthostatic hypotension
25
Q

Dysrhythmia

A

irregular heart rate increases related to conduction changes
