The mental health nurse recognizes that genetic intolerance of alcohol has been documented in patient history of ethnic groups belonging to Asians.

Genetic Intolerance of Alcohol

Alcohol sensitivity is another term for alcohol intolerance.

  • A person with alcohol intolerance may believe that they become inebriated too rapidly, but their body is unable to break down alcohol in the same manner that a person without the illness would.

Alcohol intolerance is sometimes mistaken for alcohol allergy.

  • While alcohol intolerance is a metabolic issue that is handed down via your genes, alcohol allergy is more about how your immune system reacts to certain chemicals in alcohol.

Alcohol intolerance is a metabolic disease with no known treatment.

  • While its symptoms might be annoying and unpleasant, they are seldom deadly.
  • Because the illness is also genetically inherited, there is little you can do to avoid it.

People of Asian ancestry are more likely to carry the inherited genetic mutation that causes alcohol intolerance.

So, the correct answer is Asians.

One of the two enzymes principally involved in the metabolism of alcohol, Aldehyde Dehydrogenase (ALDH), is only found in Asians and does not exist in Caucasians or African-Americans. When drinking alcohol, those who have two copies of the faulty gene experience extreme flushing and other unpleasant side effects, such as nausea. Additionally, these individuals react to alcohol more strongly but not always in a negative way as shown by physiological and psychological tests. Alcohol use causes typical abnormalities in brain activity in those with faulty gene variation causing intolerances in Asians more than any other ethnic group.

How would the nurse help a patient experiencing unilateral neglect related to a brain injury restore normal capabilities?
larisa86 [58]

The correct answer for this question is

Reminding the patient to scan the home environment,

Encouraging family members to eat along with the patient

Teaching the patient to touch the affected side of body with the unaffected hand

Patients with unilateral neglect-related cerebrovascular accidents are more likely to fall. To reduce the danger of falling, the patient should be reminded to inspect their living space as they walk. Family members should sit with the patient at meals so they may remind them to attempt to eat with the affected side of their mouth. Helping the patient become conscious of the affected side is teaching them to touch the affected side of their body with the unaffected hand. The patient may benefit from greater coping mechanisms and therapeutic dialogue, but anxious patients will benefit more from these techniques.
