When treating a patient with alcohol use disorder, the nurse should try to achieve physiological stability

When someone drinks alcohol heavily even after knowing its side effects and the problems it causes, then the pattern is called alcohol use disorder. This disorder is concerned with the side effects due to the withdrawal of alcohol because drinking more alcohol experiences the same effect.

This disorder of alcohol involves drinking more alcohol. So it is often termed alcoholism. When the level of alcohol in the bloodstream increases, it is called alcohol intoxication. Whereas when drinking alcohol l is suddenly stopped or reduced to a very low level, it's known as alcohol withdrawal. 

Therefore, when treating a patient with alcohol use disorder, the nurse should try to achieve physiological stability.

A Typical Human Body Contains About 3.0 Grams Of Potassium Per Kilogram Of Body Mass. 1. ... 1. How much Potassium-40 is present
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Given

Per Kg of body mass, there is 3 gram of potassium

And abundance of three isotopes are as follows

Potassium-39, Potassium-40, and Potassium-41. Have abundances respectively as 93.26%, 0.012% and 6.728%.

1) A body weighing 80 Kg will have 240 grams of potassium. And the amount of Potassium-40 will be 0.012% of 240 gram

= 240*0.012/100 = 0.0288 gram.

2) Dose in (Gy) = (energy absorbed)/(mass of the body) = ( 1.1*106*1.6*10-19)/(80) = 22*10-10 J/kg

Dose (in siverts) = RBE*Dose(in Gy) = 1.2*22*10-10 = 26.4*10-10
