Answer:

0.5

Explanation:

The nurse must ensure that the FIO2 must not be greater than 0.5. This is because if the FIO2 is even slightly greater than than for as little as 16 to 24 hours, it can get really toxic and then diffusion of gas and surfactant activity will be reduced drastically. In ideal circumstances, the oxygen source is expected to be room air and within a range of FIO2 0.18 - 0.21.

allsm [11]

Answer:

c) all six dimensions of her health

Explanation:

Bad emotional health can have many impacts on our well-being.

It weakens our <em>immune system, making it more prone to diseases.</em>

Every emotion we feel affects our brain. <em>It doesn't have any emotional center, yet different emotions involve different structures.</em>

Not many people understand how important the emotional state is for our health.

Our heartbeats and breathing is controlled by our brain. When we’re overloading our brain with negativity (<em>bad biochemicals</em>) it destroys our health.

When our body is filled with negative emotions such as sadness, stress and tension, it has a very harmful effect on our brain, making our breaths shallow.

Because negative emotions increase the acid in our blood, they make our blood thicker and this less unhealthy blood goes to every single part of our body.
