Requirements in Completing the LAB Activities

Since most of our sessions for this semester will be delivered through distance/blended learning
activities, the submissions will also be done online. To do this, you need to have access to the
following applications:

1. Microsoft Office/Google Docs

2. Google Classroom (or Quipper; will depend on the instructor in-charge)
3. Google Meet (or any other teleconferencing app, duly agreed by the whole class)
4. Internet connectivity

Access to a printer and/or scanner is also a plus, but not a requirement.

Now that you are done acquainting yourself with the instructor and the course itself, please
proceed to Worksheet 4: Cardiovascular and Lymphatic System.

Instructions: The worksheet should be handwritten. However, this must be done by group.
You may print the worksheet and write your answers on the printed sheets. You may
also write your answers on a clean bond paper. Observe pagination. Do not forget to place
the names, year level and section, and name of instructor on all of the sheets. Once done,
send the compilation of your group’s answers to your clinical instructor.

After the submission, prepare a PPT presentation for your presentation. Each member of the
group is expected to present during the worksheet answer presentations.

Learning Outcomes
At the end of this module, you are expected to:
1. Be apprised with the different parts of the cardiovascular and lymphatic system of the
body;
2. Demonstrate how to take your central and peripheral pulses using your fingerpads and
stethoscope (if available).

As you start with this module, you are free to consult and coordinate with your assigned clinical
instructor. Be sure to get his/her email address and contact number for collaboration and
assistance. Just keep going, you can do it!

You are almost done with our worksheet 4! Here’s your last dive, a performance task on
how to check your central and peripheral pulses using your finger pads and stethoscope (if
available). Produce a small video clip, presenting your demonstrations for the following
movements:

1. Temporal 5. Radial
2. Carotid 6. Popliteal
3. Apical – use stethoscope (if available) 7. Dorsalis pedis
4. Brachial 8. Posterior tibial

Notes:
• All members of the group must be present in the clip. The clip should not be more than
15 minutes. You have a freedom on how you are going to direct the video for the
demonstration. Be creative
• Femoral artery was purposively not included in this activity.
• You may read the Skill 29-2: Assessing a Peripheral Pulse, Skill 29-3: Assessing an Apical
Pulse, and Skill 29-4: Assessing an Apical-Radial Pulse of Kozier and Erb’s
Fundamentals of Nursing: Concepts, Process, and Practice 10e for guidance on
how to locate the pulses and perform the aforementioned procedures.
