Amphotericin (Amphoteric) is a medication that has nephrotoxic drug effect.

<h3>What is a Nephrotoxic drug?</h3>

Nephrotoxic drugs are characterized as having the potential to harm the kidneys. The kidneys may suffer immediate harm from certain medications.

Nephrotoxicity is defined as a rapid decline in kidney function brought on by the toxic effects of drugs and substances. There are numerous types, and some medications may have multiple negative effects on renal function. Nephrotoxic compounds are known as nephrotoxins.

Drugs that are nephrotoxic frequently cause inflammation in the proximal tubules, glomerulus, and surrounding cellular matrix before fiberizing the kidney tissue. Glomerulonephritis, acute and chronic interstitial nephritis, and other forms of inflammation that affect normal kidney functioning and cause toxicity are examples of this.

Amphotericin B side effects that affect kidney function include metabolic acidosis caused by amphotericin B, urine magnesium wasting and hypomagnesemia, and urinary potassium wasting and hypokalemia.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:Ivy Carter had previously been admitted to a regional neurosurgical unit following a spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage. During her hospital stay she presented with disturbances in consciousness, acute confusion, florid hallucinations and delusions.

“After a protracted period of rehabilitation, Ms Carter recovered and was able to give a retrospective account of her hospital experiences. She remembered vividly a television being put in front of her, but she thought the events on TV were actually happening and that she was part of it. This was particularly frightening when violence or noise were depicted. Because staff had switched the TV on, she thought they were also part of the cause of the violence and reported feeling paranoid about the nurses’ motivations. I reflected on this seemingly benign act and considered how good intentions can be misinterpreted by patients who are not in ‘our reality’.Unless we listen to these accounts, we can never appreciate how our actions might be perceived and whether harm and distress is unknowingly caused. Although her perception of reality was clearly distorted by her cerebral injury, Ms Carter’s story is a reminder that unless we take time to understand patients’ lived experiences, and perhaps attempt to view our actions and the environment through a ‘confusion lens’, we will never deliver the high-quality care patients have a right to expect.

“The hospital environment for the orientated patient may, at times, be confusing and hectic but for the confused patient it must be a profoundly disturbing and distressing place to be. As a result of my work with Ms Carter, I have started to research patients’ memories of acute confusion as part of my PhD study.”

Exposure Status Cases Controls Yes 11 108 No 5 436 Total 16 544 Calculate the odds ratio. What do you conclude based upon your r
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Ratio = 8.8

The exposure may be risk factor.

Explanation:

Given

\begin{array}{ccc}{Exposure\ Status} & {Cases} & {Control} & {Yes} & {11} & {108} & {No} & {5} & {436} & {Total} & {16} & {544} \ \end{array}

Required

The odd ratio

First, we calculate the odds of exposure using:

Odds = \frac{With\ Exposure(Yes)}{Without\ Exposure (No)}

For cases, we have:

Odds_{Cases} = \frac{11}{5}

Odds_{Cases} = 2.20

For controls, we have:

Odds_{Controls} = \frac{108}{436}

Odds_{Controls} = 0.25

So, the odds' ratio is:

Ratio = \frac{Odds_{Cases}}{Odds_{Controls}}

Ratio = \frac{2.20}{0.25}

Ratio = 8.8

Conclusion about the odds' ratio

The calculated ratio is greater than (and also far from) 1.

This implies that there is a greater exposure than the controls.

So, we can conclude that the exposure may be risk factor.
