What is the core body temperature generally? - ANSWER: 37°C (98.6 (°F)
According to estimates what is the body temperature in relation to pt oxygen consumption? -
ANSWER: for every 1°C increase the oxygen consumption increases about 10%
Define afebrile - ANSWER: temperature within normal range
Define pyrexia or hyperthermia - ANSWER: temperature above normal range
Define febrile - ANSWER: fever, temperature rises above normal range
Define hyperpyrexia - ANSWER: exceptionally high temperature above 41°C (105.8°F)
Formula to convert °C to °F - ANSWER: °F= (9/5* °C) +32
Formula to convert °F to °C - ANSWER: °C= 5/9 (°F-32)

pulsus alternans - ANSWER: pulse varies every other beat while the rhythm remains regular
Pulsus paradoxus - ANSWER: pulse decreases noticeably in strength during inspiration and increases
back to normal during exalhation
Tachypnea - ANSWER: increased breath rate
Bradypnea - ANSWER: decreased breath rate
systolic blood pressure - ANSWER: the blood pressure measured during ventricular contraction
diastolic blood pressure - ANSWER: during ventricular relaxation, blood pressure is generated by the
elastic recoil of the arteries and arterioles
pulse pressure - ANSWER: the numeric difference between the systolic and diastolic blood pressures
Hypertension - ANSWER: when an individuals blood pressure is chronically above normal range
