of this practical experiment were to record the effects of exercise or work on cardiovascular parameters and to record the effects of exercise on body temperature. The cardiovascular parameters measured in this lab include, heart rate (HR), blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), duration of the PR segment and RR interval. Materials and Methods: The materials and methods were followed as per EQ4058 Equine Exercise Physiology Practical Manual, Lab 4 the Effect of Exercise on the Human Cardiovascular

procedure is concluded. The patient remained sedated, showing no signs of distress or discomfort. Mr. B is not currently on supplemental oxygen. Mr. B is placed on an automatic blood pressure machine programmed to monitor the blood pressure every five minutes as well as a pulse oximeter. At 4:35 pm Mr. B blood pressure is 110/62 and O2 saturation is 92%. He has no supplemental oxygen, and his ECG and respirations are not monitored. Nurse J and the LPN receive a new patient in respiratory distress
