The patient is in progressive  stage of shock.

What  are the stages of shock?

When reduced blood flow (perfusion) is first noticed during Stage I shock, a number of processes are engaged to maintain/restore perfusion. This activation causes the blood arteries throughout the body to narrow (vasoconstriction), the heart to beat more quickly (tachycardia), breathing to speed up (tachypnea), and the kidneys to work harder to keep fluid in the circulatory system. On the AVPU scale, the patient is most certainly awake but may have altered mental status, such as bewilderment, irritation, or lethargy.

These compensatory techniques start to fall short in shock Stage II. The patient's symptoms demonstrate that the body's processes are no longer able to increase perfusion. On the AVPU scale, the patient becomes V, P, or U due to oxygen deprivation in the brain. Blood pressure may be near or below normal yet heart rate, breathing rate, and blood pressure are all still over average.

The duration of the poor perfusion starts to permanently damage the body's organs and tissues in Stage III of shock. The kidneys typically fully shut down, and the heart's performance continues to deteriorate. Heart and respiratory rates are significantly higher than average before collapsing to low rates that are not compatible with life. Additionally, the patient's blood pressure is dangerously low. The body's organs and tissues all contain damaged and dying cells. The patient's death is the eventual result of Stage III shock.

True or False? About 20% of female high school students have tried smoking at some point.
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Might be true...

Peer pressure—their friends encourage them to try cigarettes and to keep smoking. They see smoking as a way of rebelling and showing independence. They think that everyone else is smoking and that they should, too. The tobacco industry has used clever marketing tactics to specifically target teenagers.

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Appropriate Question:-

The output for a 60kg woman who runs up a 3m high flight of stairs in 3.5 sec.starting from rest but having a final speed of 2 m/s.

Given:-

Mass of woman=m=60kg.

Height=h=3m

Time=t=3.5secs.

To find :-

Here we want to calculate the output for a woman

Here first we should calculate work done first.

work \: done = mghworkdone=mgh

Applying the values,

work \: done = 10 \times 60 \times 3workdone=10×60×3

Work done= 1800Joule.

Now , lets calculate power,

power = \frac{workdone}{time \: taken} power=

timetaken

workdone

Now,

Applying the values ,

power = \frac{1800}{3.5} power=

3.5

1800

Power =514.2857 watt.

Hope it helps u mate .

Thank you .
