The nurse should make sure the patient take the medication empty stomach to ensure maximum effectiveness of the drug.

Why the drug should be taken empty stomach?

  • Food inhibits the absorption of sotalol, so to get the most out of the medication, the patient should take it on an empty stomach rather than with an antacid or just after a substantial meal.
  • It is customary to spread out the dose over the day; it shouldn't be taken entirely at once.
  • Tablets of sotalol are available and should be taken twice daily on an empty stomach, either one hour before or two hours after meals. Observe the directions and dosage suggested. Even if you feel fine, don't stop the medication without first talking to your doctor.

1 gal of KCL solution by mixing 565 g of KCL in an appropriate vehicle. How many milliequivalents of K are in 15 ml of this solu
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: 30 meq

Explanation:

We know that 1 gallon = <u>3.785 Litres</u>

1 litre = <u>1000 milliliters</u>

1 gallon = <u>3785 ml</u>

<u>Concentration = weight/volume </u>

= 565/3785

= 0.149 g/ml

= 149 mg/ml

Multiplying with 15 ml we get

= 149*15 = <u>2235 mg</u>

<u>The atomic weights of:</u>

Potassium (K) = 39

Chlorine (Cl) = 35.5

Finding the equivalent weight of Kcl = 39 + 35.5 = 74.5

So, 1 equivalent of KCl is 74.5 g

= 2235 mg * 1 meq/74.5 mg = 30 meq K+

Therefore, there are 30 milliequivalents of K in 15 ml of this solution

perez-escamilla r, hromi-fiedler a, vega-lopez s, bermudez-millan a, segura-perez s. impact of peer nutrition education on dieta
Paraphin [41]

This systematic review assesses the impact of peer education/counselling on nutrition and health outcomes in Latinos and identifies needs for future research.

The systematic literature search consisted of

  1. Searches of Internet databases
  2. Perform a reverse search of the reference list of articles of interest
  3. A manual review of the archives of the Latin American Centre for Eliminating Health Disparities.
  4. Search Journal of Nutrition Education and Behaviour.
  5. Direct contact with researchers in the field.

The authors reviewed 22 articles obtained from experimental or quasi-experimental studies.

Outcome measures:

Type 2 diabetes behavioural and metabolic outcomes, breastfeeding, nutritional knowledge, attitudes and behaviours.

RESULTS:

Peer nutrition education positively impacts not only overall nutritional knowledge and behaviour in Latinos, but also diabetes self-management and breastfeeding outcomes.

CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS:

Randomized longitudinal studies testing the effects of peer nutrition education interventions based on theories of goal setting and culturally appropriate behaviour change are needed.

Further advancing knowledge in this promising field requires the incorporation of credible scales and the construction of acculturation.

The characteristics of the best peer educators, the type of training they should receive, the client load and volume, and the best educational approaches and offers to identify. An operational survey is also required to identify Preferences.
