Something I wish my teacher knew about me..
zzz [600]

Answer:

Anything semi-personal that would give your teacher a sense of your learning style and personal needs.

Explanation:

Your teacher is looking for something they should know about you in order to help you best. This also helps them get an idea of your personality, and learning style. I suggest keeping it semi-personal, especially if you have never worked with this teacher before, or are working with them for the rest of the year, because you might want to keep some things to yourself. I hope this helps!

Artemon [7]

Based on the symptoms,

Differential diagnoses for the boy includes:

  1. Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF) owing to his recent visit to Florida
  2. Meningitis

Course of treatment:

  • The patient needs to be admitted
  • Diagnostic tests including CBC, cultures of both blood and CSF to rule out meningitis should be done

Explanation:

Initial line of treatment with loading dose of doxycycline at 2.2 mg/kg and ceftriaxone at 100 mg/kg/day can be started.

RMSF is a contagious disease caused by ticks and is predominant in the southeastern regions of the United States like North Carolina. So the boy could have got the disease from his visit to N. Carolina. Doxycycline is a broad spectrum antibiotic is the most preferred treatment of choice for RMSF

Meningitis is a bacterial disease affecting the brain. Ceftriaxone is the treatment of choice for empirical treatment of meningitis.

Since the boy’s symptoms like fever, headache, petechial rashes etc are symptomatic of both RMSF and meningitis, both the antibiotics should be administered initially.

Then depending upon the culture results, other specific antibiotics and treatments can be started.
