If your innate defenses, like barriers and inflammation, fail to stop infection, you are left completely unguarded against disea

se. True or false.

stira [4]1 year ago

False, the body has its adaptive defenses.

Innate defense is the first line of protection against all diseases and infections, but adaptive immunity also has the power to fight off pathogens and infections brought on by external objects.

Therefore, it is not accurate to say that our body would be totally unprotected since adaptive immunity will also manifest itself to get rid of the disease-causing substance. This is a false assertion, then.

The correct answer is that adaptive immunity will combat pathogens or foreign body infections if innate immunity fails to protect against a disease or infection because adaptive immunity also works to eradicate the disease-causing agent.

Heparin 12, 000 units subcutaneous is prescribed. Stock ampoules contain 25, 000 units/ 5ml. What volume in ml should be drawn u
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: The volume in ml that should be drawn is 2.4ml.

Explanation:

Heparin is an anticoagulant which is administered to prevent the formation of blood

clot in high risk patients. The high risk patients include those undergoing open-heart surgery, bypass surgery, kidney dialysis, and blood transfusions. This medication can be administered subcutaneously ( that is, under the skin) by a health care provider. The exact dosage should be administered to avoid adverse effects.

From the question given,

In 5 ml of stock ampoules, there are 25,000 units.

To calculate how many millilitres will deliver 1 unit, divide by 25,000

5 ÷ 25000 = 0.0002

Therefore 0.0002 ml will deliver 1 Unit.

To calculate the volume that will deliver 12,000 units, multiply by 12,000.

Therefore,

12,000 × 0.0002 = 2.4mL

From the calculation, the volume in ml that should be drawn is 2.4ml
