3. Your patient sits down in the chair to have her vital signs taken. She appears to be out of breath. She states that it has started to rain, and she had to run across the parking lot.

Just step back, and look at this rationally, don't overcomplicate it. If you made it this far, you know these answers. Trust yourself.

1. Listen to everyone else about possibly eating or drinking something, or being dressed to warmly. And every other common sense reason that body temperature might be up a little bit.

2. What's one of the primary reasons for pumping blood throughout your body? Then apply the fact that your heart rate changes depending on that demand. You don't need as much speed with higher efficiency.

3. After answering #2, this should come incredibly easily.
