How do you explain the changes in pulse wave when the arm is raised or lowered?

Your functions and blood are all moving by the force of gravity, so when everything is raised or lowered(moving your arm), your pulse wave changes. This can also result from subtlty in higher blood pressure, when activity occures. Just as your pulse waves changes in the rest of your body when excersising, you will have a slight change in pulse when simply moved your arm up and down, you're gettin' that blood pumping! ;)

Hope this helps :)

The results of a test of visual acuity are 20/15. this individual ________.

Lady_Fox [76]

Given what we know about visual acuity measurements we can confirm that a score of 20/15 will indicate that the patient has better than normal vision.

Visual acuity is most often measured using a chart known as a Snellen chart. The goal of this is to place the patient at a distance of 20 feet and see how many lines in the chart he or she is able to accurately identify. Though this method is becoming less common due to advances in technology, the dual number measurement system drives from these tests.

The numbers in the score indicate the size of the letters and the distance at which the patient can see them. Though 20/20 is considered the optimal normal vision score, a score of 20/15 will actually indicate even better vision. This score indicates that at 20 feet, this individual can see smaller letters than the normal person.
