On the bus on the way to school, Angelique's friend Jack shows her his new ear piercing. When she asks him where he had it done, he says his friend Georgia did it for him at her house. Jack says she did piercings on a few of their friends over the weekend using a safety pin.
What are the possible negative outcomes from Jack's decisions? Check all that apply.
-tetanus
-nerve damage
-hearing loss
-allergic reaction
-hepatitis
Answer:
1. tetanus
2. nerve damage
3. allergic reaction
4. hepatitis
Explanation:
The use of a safety pin for piercing can cause body wounds which, if not appropriately treated, can lead to tetanus.
Similarly, using a safety pin for body piercing by unprofessional can affect the body nerves and ultimately lead to nerve damage and allergic reaction.
Also, both piercing has been connected to HBV and HCV, which are Hepatitis B Virus and Hepatitis C Virus, especially those not done correctly.
Hence, the possible negative outcomes from Jack's decisions are:
1. tetanus
2. nerve damage
3. allergic reaction
4. hepatitis
yep peers are people in the same age range as you who also share the same interests as you so the answer is :TRUE
I think it’s C but I’m not completely sure. I mean it makes the most sense out of these.
Answer:
Physiological changes occur with aging in all organ systems. The cardiac output decreases, blood pressure increases and arteriosclerosis develops. The lungs show impaired gas exchange, a decrease in vital capacity and slower expiratory flow rates. The creatinine clearance decreases with age although the serum creatinine level remains relatively constant due to a proportionate age-related decrease in creatinine production. Functional changes, largely related to altered motility patterns, occur in the gastrointestinal system with senescence, and atrophic gastritis and altered hepatic drug metabolism are common in the elderly. Progressive elevation of blood glucose occurs with age on a multifactorial basis and osteoporosis is frequently seen due to a linear decline in bone mass after the fourth decade. The epidermis of the skin atrophies with age and due to changes in collagen and elastin the skin loses its tone and elasticity. Lean body mass declines with age and this is primarily due to loss and atrophy of muscle cells. Degenerative changes occur in many joints and this, combined with the loss of muscle mass, inhibits elderly patients' locomotion. These changes with age have important practical implications for the clinical management of elderly patients: metabolism is altered, changes in response to commonly used drugs make different drug dosages necessary and there is need for rational preventive programs of diet and exercise in an effort to delay or reverse some of these changes.
