The REACH-DL is a high school lab kit designed for A&P classes. The kit contains the sensors, recording software, and write-ups to perform over 15 core experiments introducing your students to the fundamentals of cardiovascular, neuromuscular and respiratory physiology.
Each exercise is laid out in a step-by-step, simple-to-use fashion, allowing your students to perform hands-on experiments, easily analyze their findings, and generate a report.
REACH-DL includes:
The REACH-DL system is keyed to the HAPS Learning Goals and Outcomes.
Labs that can be performed with this system:
| Quick Start |
| Quick Start: Learn how to use LabScribeDL and the iWorx systems using pulse. |
| Heart |
| ECG – Rest & Recovery: Record an Electrocardiogram (ECG) and study the effects of exercise on an ECG and pulse. |
| ECG – Exercise & O2 Saturation: Record an Electrocardiogram (ECG) and O2 Saturation and examine the relationship between the ECG and the percentage of O2 in the blood. |
| ECG – Temperature & Arm Position: Record an Electrocardiogram (ECG) and examine the relationship of the ECG to the peripheral circulation. |
| Diving Reflex: Study the mammalian diving reflex and the effect on pulse. |
| Muscle |
| Grip Force: Measure EMG Grip Force. Study the effect of fatigue. |
| Muscles in Opposition: Measure EMGs from antagonistic muscle groups. |
| Electrooculogram (EOG): Measure Electrooculogram (EOG) and study muscle activity while doing a variety of different tasks including pursuit and saccades. |
| Electrogastrogram (EGG): Compare Electrogastrogram (EGG) on an empty and full stomach. |
| Targeted Exercise: Measure EMG in ‘active’ muscle groups to make sure that the exercise routine is being done properly. |
| Reflexes |
| Eyes vs. Ears: The study of whether sight or sound stimuli cause a faster reaction time. |
| Color Test: Measure reaction times to visual stimuli of different colors. |
| Breathing |
| Rest & Recovery: Measure breathing depth and rate at rest and during recovery from exercise. |
| Exercise & O2 Saturation: Measure breathing depth and rate, and O2 saturation at rest and during recovery from exercise. |
| Breathing & Body Position: Examine the effects of gravity on breathing by measuring the differences in breathing depth and rate while resting and while sitting, standing, or lying down. |
| Activities & O2 Saturation: Measure oxygen saturation levels in the blood during normal breathing, apnea, shallow breathing, and other parameters. |
| Psychology |
| EEG – Cortical Arousal: Study the relationship between EEG and Cortical Arousal |
| Stroop Effect: Interference of Stimuli on Associative Tasks |
