A nurse obtains a medical history from a patient that is admitted to the emergency department, using the mnemonic AMPLE to gather:
B. Food allergies
C. Previous Medications
E. Tetanus vaccination
- The nurse gathers information on the disease, the amount of time after the incident, the therapy given, the patient's reaction, and degree of consciousness during the secondary survey.
- The acronym AMPLE reminds nurses to inquire about A, drug, food, latex, and environmental allergies; M, medication history; P, past health history, tetanus, and immunizations; L, last meal; and E, incidents or environmental factors that contributed to the illness.
- Before assessing the health history at the beginning of the secondary survey, the nurse checks the patient's vital signs and blood pressure.

#SPJ4
Answer:
Pallor
Fatigue
Easy bruising
Cyanosis
When symptoms begin, a child appears pale, fatigues easily, and has anorexia from the lowered RBC count and tissue hypoxia. Because of reduced platelet formation (thrombocytopenia), the child bruises easily or develops petechiae (pinpoint, macular, purplish-red spots caused by intradermal or submucous hemorrhage). A child may have excessive nosebleeds or gastrointestinal bleeding. As a result of a decrease in WBCs (neutropenia) a child may contract an increased number of infections and respond poorly to antibiotic therapy. Observe closely for signs of cardiac decompensation such as tachycardia (not bradycardia), tachypnea (not bradypnea), shortness of breath, or cyanosis from the long-term increased workload of all these effects on the heart.
Explanation:
“The prostate is a gland that produces the fluid that carries sperm during ejaculation. The prostate gland surrounds the urethra, the tube through which urine passes out of the body.
Male reproductive anatomy
An enlarged prostate means the gland has grown bigger. Prostate enlargement happens to almost all men as they get older.
An enlarged prostate is often called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It is not cancer, and it does not raise your risk for prostate cancer.

Causes
The actual cause of prostate enlargement is unknown. Factors linked to aging and changes in the cells of the testicles may have a role in the growth of the gland, as well as testosterone levels. Men who have had their testicles removed at a young age (for example, as a result of testicular cancer) do not develop BPH.
Also, if the testicles are removed after a man develops BPH, the prostate begins to shrink in size.
Some facts about prostate enlargement:
The likelihood of developing an enlarged prostate increases with age.
BPH is so common that it has been said all men will have an enlarged prostate if they live long enough.
A small amount of prostate enlargement is present in many men over age 40. More than 90% of men over age 80 have the condition.
No risk factors have been identified, other than having normally-functioning testicles.

Answer:
Fortified
Explanation:
A fortified food is a food to which nutrients have been included into that ordinarily do not contain such nutrients. The inclusion of the additional nutrient is to provide improved nutrition as well as to meet dietary needs. Food drink such as milk products usually contain added vitamin D, which serves as a fortification. Produced fruit juices can sometimes be found fortified with vitamin D.
