In this chapter, we will be learning about the techniques used to measure various parameters of body health. We will start by understanding how to measure body temperature correctly and how to interpret the results.
Next, we will learn about pulse rate and how to identify pulse points in the body. We will also conduct experiments to determine our own pulse rate.
Moving on, we will explore blood pressure measurement and learn how to use the appropriate meter for this purpose. We will practice measuring and recording blood pressure readings.
Lastly, we will calculate and determine our Body Mass Index (BMI) and learn how to interpret it. We will then make decisions based on our BMI results.
