Tell your partner to stop the ambulance for a patient who after restoring a pulse in a cardiac arrest patient, you begin immediate transport. while en route to the hospital, the patient goes back into cardiac arrest.

A cardiac arrest is when your heart suddenly stops pumping blood around your body which leads to the heart to stop pumping blood which in turn leads to brain being starved of oxygen. This causes the patient to fall unconscious and stop breathing.

The common cause for cardiac arrest is abnormal heart rhythm which happens when your heart's electrical system isn't working correctly. The electric system of the heart controls the rate and rhythm of your heartbeat.

A few signs of cardiac arrest include chest pain, dizziness, palpitations, breathlessness and fainting.

Which phenomena best accounts for the increased presence of leukocytes at the site of inflammation?
densk [106]

Answer: Leukocytes recruitment is a phenomena which causes the leukocytes to travel to the site of inflammation.

Explanation:

When there is an inlfammation anywhere in the body due to any cell injury,necrosis,infection or a foreign body, mediators are released from the site of inflammation which activates the leukocytes. Leukocytes are the white blood cells i.e neutrophils and macrophages which fight against the inflammatory agents.

Mediators released from the site if inflammation as in Cytokines and TNF (tissue necrosis factor) activate the integrins and endothelial adhesion molecules which causes the attachment and rolling of the leukocytes on the endothelium. Chemokines are the substances which attract the leukocytes to the site of inflammation. Later these chemokines causes the leukocytes to extravasate out of the vessels to the site of inflammation and fight the inflammatory substances.

bija089 [108]

Answer: In many of these cases IV antibiotic treatment can take 4 to 6 weeks, sometimes followed by long-term oral antibiotic treatment, especially since osteomyelitis can be a  lifelong disease (I do see the "acute" in the question, just calling it out).

Best advice thought for the nurse would be to "ask the doctor :)"
