Antenatal clinic is a clinic that is involved in provision of care to pregnant mothers. They are given advise on nutrition that is the food to eat and the ones they are not supposed to eat among other advises. The care is provided by doctors, midwifes and nurses. Pregnancy is divided into trimester namely first trimester ( first 3 months), second trimester (middle three months) and third trimester (last three months of pregnancy). During the third trimester many changes may be observed and the nurses may report the following findings to the provider during this trimester; they include varicose veins, Hemorrhoids and lordosis (change in the curvature of the spine) which are normal however client teaching is recommended. In addition, the findings may include leg cramps (normal) and fainting spells not normal but may be felt when the client is rising.
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. A lamprey is characterized by an absence of jaws. This animal is have no jaws and are only full of teeth. <span>Lampreys are any jawless fish of the order Petromyzontiformes. Hope this answers the question.</span>
The physical characteristics of an organism is its phenotype. I remember this because phenotype and physical both start with 'ph.'
Hope this helps. Good luck! :)
<u>Answer:</u>
Q: Which skeletal system <u>disorder</u> might she be suffering from?
A: <u>Osteoporosis</u>
Q: What <u>techniques</u> could be used to diagnose her condition?
A: <u>Bone mineral density (BMD) test</u> or <u>dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan</u>
Q: What treatments are available?
A: Medication, healthy food.
<u>Explanation:</u>
<u>The vertebral discs between vertebrae could shrink with age</u>. Therefore, a height loss up to 1-inch is normal. However, if the height loss is more then it is possibly due to <u>osteoporosis</u>.
A <u>bone mineral density test</u>, also known as <u>dual energy X-ray absorptiometry</u> scan, is a well-adapted test to measure the amount of calcium and other minerals in the bones. It uses <u>X-rays</u> to measure the content of calcium and thus strength of bones.
A person who is already suffering from osteoporosis should be treated with <u>medicine</u> right away so that it <u>stops</u> further <u>deterioration of the bones</u> and <u>avoid any future bone fractures</u>. Further, it can be handled by <u>eating a healthy diet</u> and <u>supplements</u> such as <u>vitamins D</u>. In case some of the bones/vertebrae are <u>already fractured</u>, <u>surgical approaches</u> might be necessary.
