Answer:

The statement the patient makes about being anxious in "this place".

Explanation:

This should alert the nurse right away that the patient is experiencing anxiety from being in a clinical setting,  and that is likely the cause for the elevated blood pressure and heart rate. The second reading is helpful confirmation of this, and should be used to console the patient and assure them that the risk of hypertension is minimal, and it may just be due to the anxiety they mentioned experiencing.

When administering a subcutaneous or an intramuscular injection, one should gently pull back on the plunger to ___________.
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Ascertain that the needle is not in a blood vessel

Explanation:

In subcutaneous administration, a small amount of liquid medicine is injected into the subcutaneous tissue below the patient's skin. This type of injection is indicated for the administration of anticoagulants, hypoglycemic agents and vaccines (anti-rabies and anti-measles). The drug is slowly absorbed into the nearby capillaries, giving prolonged effect of the drug.  Intramuscular injections deposit the medication deep into the muscle tissue, which is highly vascularized and can absorb rapidly. This route of administration provides rapid systemic action and absorption of relatively large doses.

Regardless of whether the injection is subcutaneous or intramuscular, one should carefully pull the plunger to make sure that the needle is not in a blood vessel and does not cause bleeding.

I will type using the Pancreas which is the largest gland in the human body. The collection of millions of cells in the Pancreas has Endocrine and Exocrine capability, the ability to produce hormones and release these hormones into the bloodstream are known as the islets of Langerhans, and there are four major types of cells that constitute the islets. of Langerhans they are the Alpha Cells, Beta Cells, Delta Cells, and Gamma Cells. Alpha Cells are those cells that produce and secrete a peptide hormone known as Glucagon and Glucagon is stimulated and released when. we have low glucose concentration inside our blood. We have Beta Cells that releases the hormone Insulin. Think of Insulin as the key that unlocks the cell for glucose to enter the cell where we derive our energy.
