1 answer:

4 0

Rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute and depth of at least 2 inches is correct position for giving abdominal thrusts if a child is choking and still responding.

<h3>What is the best compression rate in child?</h3>

5 abdominal thrusts should be done (also known as the Heimlich maneuver). Till the obstruction is removed, alternate 5 blows and 5 thrusts.

When a foreign object gets stuck in the windpipe or neck and blocks the airway, choking happens. In adults, food is frequently to blame. Young kids frequently ingest tiny items. Give first assistance as soon as you can because choking prevents the brain from getting oxygen.

Hands clasped to the throat are the common indication that someone is choking. Look for these signs if the person doesn't deliver the signal:

unable to speak
breathing that is difficult or noisy
breathing noises that are squeaky
Coughing that can be gentle or vigorous
becoming blue or dark on the skin, lips, and nails
flushed skin that afterwards becomes blue or pallid
consciousness loss

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer: Option B. "False"

Explanation:

Nephron can be defined as the functional unit of the kidney.

Descending limb and ascending limb are the combinly called loop of nephron or henle and are the part of renal tubule in the nephron.

Descending limbs and ascending limbs have different permeabilities to water and salt that causes high osmolarity in the Medulla.

The thin descending limb is having high permeability to water as they have low permeability to ions and urea while the thick ascending limb has impermeablity to water as there is active reabsorption of ions.

Hence, the correct option is B.
