Physiology Blood Pressure Lab Report.pdf
Blood Pressure Lab Write-up:
Produce a lab report for the Blood Pressure lab. I am providing you an outline, but your
report should be in nonnumeric, paragraph form.
1. Write an Introduction Section (2 or 3 paragraphs). A brief overview of blood pressure
should be included in this section. Make sure to include brief explanations of the
physiology underlying the measurement of blood pressure and how to interpret the blood
pressure reading. State the purpose of the activity.
2. Methods. Write 2-3 paragraphs which give an overview of how you did your experiment.
Did
you make any modifications to the methods outlined in the handout? How did each
individual exercise?
Write a paragraph describing your test subjects. How are they similar and how are they
different?
Write a paragraph explaining the establishment of baseline blood pressure and heart rates.
Write a paragraph which gives a general overview of how you used the methods and
baseline data to study the effects of exercise and changes in body position on blood
pressure and heart rate.
3. Results. Include three graphs and a summary table. (See the class data and sample data
posted on Canvas) The summary table organizes and presents the average and range of
data for each experiment, not a restatement of raw data. For the range, report the
maximum (high) and minimum (low) values, not the difference between the high and
low. Also, prepare three graphs (See the class data and sample data posted on Canvas).
The first graph should show your recumbent (lying on the yoga mate) and resting (sitting)
blood pressure results relative to the class averages. The second graph should show your
exercise blood pressure results relative to the class averages. The last graph should show
your heart rate results (or the results of your group members if you were not able to get
personal data) relative to the class averages for all of the activities. Make sure to follow
the guidelines from our first lab as you construct the table and graphs.
4. Summary (4-5 paragraphs) Write a short summary discussing the actual results of your
experiment. Refer to your table and graph and point out any important data. If your
actual experimental results did not match your expected results, write a paragraph
suggesting one reason your results might have been different from the expected results.
You should also include a short (1-2 paragraph) suggestion for how the data could be
used to explore an aspect of physiology. This should include specifics about your
question, which data should be part of the research and expected outcomes.

I’ve updated the lab report handout and added some suggestions for the data presentation. These
materials are posted on Canvas.
For the lab report, make sure to look at the updated handout as well as the sample graphs and
summary table. Make sure to report mean and range (High to Low values). For the range, report the
maximum and minimum values, not the difference between them. I also added an example of how to
organize the data in Excel if you use that program to make your graphs. Downloading the Sample
Data helps you see how to organize it in Excel, which helps you better make the tables if you are
using that program. I will suggest you make three graphs (not two): Blood Pressure for Body
Position (Resting and Recumbent), Blood Pressure for Exercise (Immediate and post-5 minutes) and
Heart Rate. Remember, we reported combined heart rates for left and right arms and a only one arm
was measured for the exercise blood pressure data. Refer to Lab Exercise 1 for how to format your
titles and label each axis of your graph.
