Abnormally low heart rate
Bradycardia
Hypothermia
Abnormally low body temperature

Hyperthermia
Tachycardia
Abnormally high heart rate
Bradycardia
Abnormally low heart rate
Abnormally high heart rate
Tachycardia
Faster than normal respiratory rate
Tachypnea
Hyperthermia
Abnormally high body temperature
Rapid upstroke and rapid downstroke with maximum point of intensity between
Bounding pulse
Plateau pulse
Gradual upstroke and gradual downstroke
Gradual upstroke and gradual downstroke
Plateau pulse
Tachypnea
Faster than normal respiratory rate
Normal ventilatory pattern of inspiratory-to-expiratory ratio 1:2
Eupnea
Bradypnea
Slower than normal respiratory rate
Abnormally low body temperature
Hypothermia
Systolic
Pressure at time ventricles are contracting - arteries momentarily expand
Slower than normal respiratory rate
Bradypnea
Pressure when ventricles are at rest - aortic valve closes causing wave of pressure to propel blood
Diastolic
Pressure at time ventricles are contracting - arteries momentarily expand
Systolic
Diastolic
Pressure when ventricles are at rest - aortic valve closes causing wave of pressure to propel blood
Hypotension
Abnormally low blood pressure
Abnormally low blood pressure
Hypotension
Hypertension
Abnormally high blood pressure
Abnormally high blood pressure
Hypertension
Eupnea
Normal ventilatory pattern of inspiratory-to-expiratory ratio 1:2
Bounding pulse
Rapid upstroke and rapid downstroke with maximum point of intensity between
Hyperpnea
Increase in depth of respirations greater than normal
Increase in depth of respirations greater than normal
Hyperpnea
Hypopnea
Decrease in depth of respirations to less than normal
Decrease in depth of respirations to less than normal
Hypopnea
