1. Have you noticed any changes in vital signs assessed with different body positions? Explain your results. Yes. We noticed that our breathing rate, pulse, and blood pressure changed when we were sitting, standing, and supine. Looking at the three different positions, there wasn't a big difference when measuring my respiratory rate. My breathing, from lowest to highest, is in the order: lying down (11 BPM), standing (12 BPM) and finally sitting (14 BPM). Looking at my pulse, there was a big difference in the measurement. I had a lower heart rate when lying down, 80 bpm. My heart rate while sitting was 88 bpm and while standing it was 100 bpm. Looking at my blood pressure, my reading while sitting and standing was the same which was 120/70 mm Hg. However, my blood pressure while lying down was 112/75 mm Hg. Therefore, I can conclude that my blood pressure is lower when lying down than when standing or sitting. This makes sense since your heart requires less energy to pump blood to the rest of the body than when standing or standing....
