Exercise 2. Read the text and translate it.
Heart (Part 2)

There are four cavities in our heart. The two upper cavities are atriums and the two lower ones are ventricles. The ventricles are opened and closed with four valves.

The heart is within a strong fibrous bag known as the pericardium. The heart consists of three layers: the epicardium, the myocardium and the endocardium. The epicardium and endocardium consist of connective tissue. The muscular tissue of the heart is known as the myocardium.

Heart action regulation is provided by important nervous connections, especially with the vagus and sympathetic nerves.

The heart valves make the noise known as heart sounds. At each heartbeat the two atriums contract and push their contents into the ventricles.

In adults the heart makes from 70 to 75 beats per minute while in children it beats much faster.

There is a period of rest for the muscle between the beats. This rest period is shorter during greater activity and longer when the body is quiet.

On average the heart is in a state of contraction for about one third of our life.

Exercise 3. Answer the questions.

1. How many cavities are there in our heart? 2. What bag is our heart within? 3. How many layers does the heart consist of? 4. What important connections are there in the heart? 5. How many beats does the heart make in adults and in children?

Exercise 5. Read the text.
How to Take a Pulse

As you know you can control the work of your heart taking your pulse. And it is not difficult. Put three fingers of your left hand over the radial artery on your right hand and count the beatings.

Every nurse must be careful when she takes the patient's pulse. Many patients are nervous when they see a doctor or a nurse and the patient's pulse is faster as a result.

The nurse must wait a few minutes, calm the patient and only then begin to count the pulse. She must pay attention to any changes in the pulse and note if it is deep or shallow, the rate, the rhythm and the strength of beating. Changes in the pulse are very important and the nurse must immediately tell the doctor about them.

Exercise 6. Demonstrate on your neighbour how to take a pulse, comment your actions.

Exercise 7. Translate the word combinations into English.

Вимірювати пульс, серцебиття, зміни пульсу пацієнта, не важко, три пальці лівої руки, променева артерія, зачекати кілька хвилин, заспокоїти пацієта, порахувати пульс, бачити зміни, сила биття, нервуватися, негайно повідомити лікаря.
Exercise 8. Read the joke.
Laughter Is the Best Medicine

Doctor's wife: Now, my dear, you must forget your profession if you go to see our friends with me.

Her husband: What have I done?

Doctor's wife: Why do you feel the pulse of everyone who gives you a hand?

Exercise 9. Read the information.
How the Second Hand in Your Watch Was Invented

John Floyer, an English doctor, discovered the varying pulse rate. In order to take his patients' pulse, he constructed his own special pulse watch which ran for 60 seconds. So the second hand in your watch originated from Floyer's pulse watch.

Notes:

second hand - секундна стрілка discovered - відкрив invented - винайшов varying - змінний watch - годинник originated - походить

(Lyrics by Will Jennings, music by James Horner)

Every night in my dreams I see you, I feel you,

That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance and spaces between us.

You have come to show you go on.

Near, far, wherever you are

I believe that the heart does go on.

Once more you open the door

And you're here in my heart

And my heart will go on and on.

Love can touch us one time and last for a lifetime

And never let go till we're gone.

Love was when I loved you, one true time I hold to.

In my life we'll always go on.

You're here, there's nothing I fear

And I know that my heart will go on.

We'll stay forever this way,

You are safe in my heart

And my heart will go on and on.

Blood

About five liters of blood fill our arteries, veins and capillaries. The blood is the fluid that courses through the blood vessels of the body, so the blood supplies the body cells with necessary substances for living. The blood is of the red color. In the arteries it's scarlet, in the veins it's dark red.

The blood consists of the plasma (a yellowish liquid composed of water), dissolved gases, such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen; proteins, lipids and carbohydrates, nitrogenous substances and inorganic salts; red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. The amount and composition of the blood in a healthy person are relatively constant. Various diseases cause changes in the blood. These changes we can see making blood tests. In laboratories today different blood tests are conducted.

If a person has any changes in his blood, he must immediately consult a doctor.

Exercise 9. Read and translate the text. Give a title to the text.

An antigen is a substance that can provoke an immune (protective) response of the body. An antigen promotes production of antibodies that will interact only with that antigen. On the surface of all cells there are numerous antigens, which cause production of different antibodies. The major blood groups (types А, В, AB, and O) are differentiated on the basis of the presence on the red blood cells of those surface antigens: type A blood has antigen A, type В has antigen B, type AB has both antigen A and antigen B, and type О has neither antigen A nor antigen B, A person's blood type must be identified before a blood transfusion can be given because his or her blood may reject transfused blood of the wrong type. Type A blood plasma, for example, does not contain any anti-A antibodies. It does, however, contain anti-B antibodies. If type В blood is transfused, the anti-B antibodies in the plasma will destroy the type В red cells, which have type В antigens.

III. Independent Work: Functions of Blood

Exercise 1. Read the text.

Functions of Blood

The blood has many functions.

The blood performs an important function in metabolism: it delivers nutrients to the tissues of all the organs and carries the waste products away.

The blood performs a most important function in respiration: it delivers oxygen to the tissues of the organs and carries carbon dioxide away. Oxygen enters the blood and carbon dioxide is eliminated from it in the lungs.

The blood effects humoral regulation of the activities of hormones around the organism. Some of these substances stimulate while others inhibit the work of the organs.

The blood also has a protective function: it contains cells which possess properties of phagocytosis and special products called antibodies, which play a protective role.

The blood takes part in regulation of heat and in maintaining a constant body temperature. With the bloodstream heat is transported from warmer parts of the body to cooler parts. The blood gives off the excess of heat into the external environment, and organism doesn't become overheated.

Exercise 4. Read the text and translate it.
Blood Pressure
The blood pressure (BP) is the pressure of the blood on the arterial wall.

The blood pressure can be normal, low or high. The normal BP is between 110-140 (the systolic pressure) over 70-90 (the diastolic pressure).

As a rule we check BP with the help of the tonometer and stethoscope. Today everybody can take his blood pressure easily, because there are different electronic tonometers.

When you check the patient's BP, you must think about his age. If a person of 20 has the blood pressure of 150. it is dangerous. And if a person of 50 has the same BP, it isn't dangerous.

High Blood Pressure

Contrary to popular belief, there is no typically hypertensive person. However, some people are more susceptible to developing high blood pressure than others. Heredity appears to play a role, the persons whose parents are hypertensive are at greater risk of becoming hypertensive themselves.

In the past, hypertension was attributed to aging, but current evidence indicates that age is not the primary factor.

Overweight, prolonged stress, smoking and drinking may increase blood pressure.

Hypertension has been called "silent disease" because it often has no obvious symptoms. A person may have high blood pressure for years without noticing any symptoms.

High blood pressure often frightens patients. The nurse must calm them. Such patients can complain of headaches, heartaches, frequent nosebleeds, flushing of the face, ringing in the ears, thumping in the chest, fatigue and dizziness. Hypertensive patients must not work hard.

Low Blood Pressure

Hypotension or low blood pressure is as dangerous as hypertension. It is caused by different conditions. Anemia may be a cause of hypotension. Great fatigue, weakness can also cause hypotension. In all cases it is very serious and the nurse must be very attentive to those patients.

Exercise 5. Complete the sentences using the words below.

  1. Blood pressure can be ...

  2. We can check BP with the help of...

  3. Hypertension is the ...

  4. Hypotension is the ...

Instant Blood Test
To a doctor, a patient's blood sample is a special index. Medical analysis of a blood count can help to spot various infections, diseases and even some types of cancer. Usually doctors have to wait hours and sometimes days to test a blood sample. But now even untrained medical workers can perform on-the-spot blood tests and get results in minutes thanks to newly developed electronic instruments. Doctors devised a diagnostic system that consists of a centrifuge and an incubator for blood samples, and a reader that can diagnose the condition of the blood. The reader is a version of a microscope connected to an ultraviolet light source. When beamed to the blood sample through filters, the light is able to detect red cells, white cells and platelets, the blood clotting component. Then computerized sensors can automatically measure these components.

All that a medical technician must do is look through the microscope eyepiece. According to the developers, blood test analysis with this system may take about 15 minutes.

Instant diagnoses are the object of recent research.

Japanese scientists designed an instrument which can detect the presence of cancer within a few minutes. A special reagent must be used. It coagulates the blood and the results of the analyses are displayed on the screen.

Exercise 2. Answer the questions.

1. Does a patient's blood sample help a doctor to diagnose the disease? 2. What can help the doctor to detect various infections, diseases and even some types of cancer? 3. Who can perform on-the-spot blood tests? Why is it important? 4. Are the on-the-spot tests difficult to perform? Why? 5. Do you think that such diagnostic instruments may be the instruments of the future?

Fitness and Health

For millions of people around the world, regular exercise is now part of their daily lives. Some jog, cycle or swim, while others prefer to work out in gyms, do aerobics or play team sports. They're part of the worldwide fitness revolution which has taken place over the last twenty years. The question is, why has the revolution happened? Well, there are several major factors.

  1. Fit people live longer, healthier lives than unfit people - especially unfit people who also smoke, drink or take drugs. People now accept that taking regular exercise is a great way to become and stay healthy.

  2. In today's world there's enormous pressure on both men and women to look as young and attractive as possible. It's also another reason for the fitness boom. Fit people not only feel good, they look good, too.

c) More sport appears on our TV screens today than ever before.
Work out videos have made it easier to exercise at home.

Dozens of new magazines devoted to sport and fitness have been published in recent years.

How can I measure my own fitness level?

The simplest way is to take your pulse. Here's how.

  1. Put two fingers of the left hand across your right wrist.

  2. Relax.

  3. Count the number of beats you can feel in the next fifteen seconds.

  4. Multiply the number of beats by four to get your pulse rate per minute.

  5. Check your answer on the chart below.

Pulse Rate When RelaxedLevel of Fitness

(beats per minute)

80 or more Poor

70-79 60-69 50-59

Under 50

Fair Good Very good Excellent

People talk about "aerobic exercise "

What is aerobic exercise? It's any activity during which your pulse goes up to a minimum of 140 beats per minute for at least twenty minutes. Jogging, swimming, cycling and football are all aerobic. It's not enough to jog, swim or cycle only once or twice a month.

To improve your heart and lung capacity you need to do an aerobic activity three times per week.

What's the best way to prepare for exercise if you're not used to it?

If you're a beginner, it's very important to make sure thaf

(a) the activity you've chosen suits your level of fitness (e.g. don't play squash for an hour if you're totally unfit);

  1. you're wearing sensible clothes and shoes;

  2. you warm up slowly and gradually before you start the activity itself. What actually happens inside the body during exercise?

A lot! Your heartbeat goes up from an average of 60-70 beats per minute to an average of 160-170. The amount of blood being pumped by your heart triples. You breathe deeper and three times more often than usual. Extra blood is sent to your muscles. You lose water due to sweating. You feel good because your body releases chemicals called endorphins.

But too much exercise can be just as bad for you as too little. Exhaustion and muscle injuries are just two of the possible problems.

What are the advantages of being fit?

There are lots. Fitness reduces the risk of heart attacks; increases strength, stamina and suppleness; means that you sleep better and don't get tired so easily; helps you to lose weight; increases the size and tone of your muscles; makes you feel healthier, happier and more positive.
