To maximize absorption of digoxin, the nurse would instruct the patient to take the drug on an empty stomach.

Digoxin is absorbed, mainly in the small intestine, and certain drugs that can reduce digoxin absorption include antacids, magnecholestyramine, etc.  

Digoxin is a class of drug called a cardiac glycoside. Their function is to reduce the heart rate and improve the filling of ventricles (chambers of the heart) with blood. It is generally prescribed to people with atrial fibrillation, who have irregular heartbeats and as a result, a different quantity of blood is pumped out with each beat.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

The pattern in which blood flows from the left side of heart the body , left foot and back to the heart is written below.

Explanation:

Left ventricle. ... As the heart contracts, blood eventually flows back into the left atrium, and then through the mitral valve, whereupon it next enters the left ventricle. From there, blood is pumped out through the aortic valve into the aortic arch and onward to the rest of the body

This is how blood flows through left side of the heart: The pulmonary veins empty oxygen-rich blood from the lungs into the left atrium. As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your left atrium into your left ventricle through the open mitral valve. When the ventricle is full, the mitral valve shuts.

For the blood to flow back the heart...

The valves close when blood starts to flow in one direction, so that blood in the veins can only flow in the direction back to the heart, which is up the legs. ... So it is a combination of blood pressure from the heart's pumping action, the valves, and muscle movement that gets the blood up the legs against gravity.

Answer:

Pneumothorax = Negative, Possible Lung Laceration

Explanation:

If the sucking sound is coming then it means that the lung is totally punctured and it like a major hull breach for the lung. The sucking sound has confirmed that the there is no pneumothorax possible.

The negative pressure gradient of lung is neutralized due to the laceration and the sucking sound can be heard due to the lung tendency toward inner flow and natural gradient maintenance. The hear beat is pumped to 108 to consume as much as possible amount of oxygen from one working lung to maintain the body's oxygen levels. These types of cases require immediate medical attention.
