The patient must score 9/10 on the Aldrete scale to be discharged from PACU.

What is the Aldrete scale?

The Aldrete Score is a medical scoring system used to assess post-anaesthesia recovery (activity, breathing, awareness, blood circulation, and colour).

  • The purpose of this quality improvement study was to determine if the patient length of stay (LOS) in Phase I of post-anaesthesia care was reasonable.
  • The overall goal was to reduce the time of stay in post-anaesthesia care Phase I for adult upper extremity surgery patients.

The first stage was to evaluate the efficacy of the PACU discharge criteria. The particular goal was to assess the effectiveness of the Aldrete scoring instrument at this institution.

The client must score a "9/10" on the Aldrete scale in order to be freed from PACU. Below is an explanation of Alderete scale marking.

If a client takes a deep breath as directed and without further stimulation or stridor, they receive two points on the Alderete scale of respiration. 1 indicates snoring or dyspnea. Alderete scale for color: 2 marks for pink, warm, and dry skin; 1 for pale, ashen, and diaphoretic skin. Alderete consciousness scale, 2 points if the patient wakes up easily, is oriented for surgery, opens their eyes on cue, and,1 easily stimulated by language cues Alderete scale 2 indicates pre-op systolic blood pressure plus twenty. BP + 20–50% of pre-operative systolic is worth 1 mark. Alderete scale activity 2 mark if follows instructions, moves with purpose, and 1 mark for weak movement .

In your own words describe the path food takes once it enter your mouth.(will give brainliest)
denis23 [38]

Answer: The digestive tract starts by chewing and swallowing food. From there the food travels down the esophagus easily because it goes with a liquid Siliva enzyme. After, the food goes into the stomach where it is processed into a thick liquid called chyme. It then travels to the lower part of the stomach known as the atrium where it is ready to be released into the small intestine. The small intestine, or small bowel, is a hollow tube about 20 feet long that runs from the stomach to the beginning of the large intestine. The small intestine breaks down food from the stomach and absorbs much of the nutrients from the food. The food then travels to the large intestine where salts and sugars that could not be digested are absorbed. The rectum stores the stool, then the anus pushes it out in a bowl movement.

Which of these is not part of a pre-driving check?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

All of these make sense except for C. Why would you need to check inside the hood each time you drive? Checking outside the vehicle will make sure everything is intact and working. Checking inside the vehicle makes sure nobody has broken into your car. And checking the vehicle as you approach it helps you process your surroundings and make sure you're safe to proceed with driving.

Tom [10]

Answer:

D. both a and b

Explanation:

If you have ever experienced a heart burn or gas build up then those are your symptoms of epigastric pain (pain in upper abdominal region) and bloating (gas).

Beware, gastritis is different than gastroenteritis. Gastritis is only talking about stomach and inflammation whereas, gastroenteritis talks about both stomach and intenstines. Thus, gastroenteritis might cause diarrhea but gastritis will not.
