​a client with hypovolemia has been prescribed intravenous fluid at 125ml/hr. the iv site to provide hydration has infiltrated.

<u>The steps involved to treat the infiltrated IV site</u> are;

  1. Stop infusion.
  2. Raise the extremity  
  3. Compress the area with cold and warm substance.

The nurse should restart the same process of infusion from another extremity.

Further Explanation:

The reduction in the concentration of blood is called hypovolemic disease. It <u>can occur due to excess blood and fluid loss.</u> In the beginning, the body helps in balancing the fluid concentration by increasing the heart rate, constriction of vessels and contraction, but it did not last for longer. The <u>hypovolemic disease is treated by intravenous fluid transfer and blood transfusion.</u> It is required for increased blood volume. The transfer may cause infiltration, and several steps help in hydration needs are:

  1. At the time of infiltration, the nurse should stop further infusion and also remove the catheter.
  2. The nurse should raise the extremity.
  3. The nurse should increase the active range of motion.
  4. The area of infiltration should be compressed with warm and cold substances. The type of substance depends upon the type of solution infuse.
  5. Restart the process at a different location.

To maintain the hydration requirement of the patient, the nurse has to begin the same process at different extremities.

The following are the steps the nurse would take to treat the infiltrated site:  

1. Stop the infusion and remove the catheter

2. Elevate the extremity

3. Encourage an active range of motion

4. Apply a cold or warm compress depending on the solution infusing

5. Restart the infusion proximal to the location or in another extremity

Now, in order to address hydration requirements of the client, the nurse will have to begin a novel peripheral intravenous in another extremity or to again start the infusion if intravenous access has been created.

What are the 3 bases of finding the amino acid of a codon
lys-0071 [83]

The three nucleotides are the bases used to encode an amino acid of codon.

<u>EXPLANATION: </u>

Genetic code explains the bases and flow in DNA followed by the flow of amino acids present in the proteins.Proteins are usually made of 20 amino acids that has been encoded by four bases. Now, at least three bases are required to encode 20 amino acids.

Three adjacent nucleotides forms a unit called codon. Also, experiments have been done to show that the single amino acid encoded by a group of three bases. This code doesn't overlap with others and the order of flow is read sequentially without any punctuation.

Where do light-independent reactions occur during photosynthesis?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis take place within the stroma. It contains enzymes that work with ATP and NADPH to “fix” carbon from carbon dioxide into molecules that can be used to build glucose. The chloroplast’s own genetic material (separate from that of the cell) is also stored in the stroma.

The interior of the chloroplast contains another membrane—the thylakoid membrane—which is folded to form numerous connected stacks of discs. Each disc is a thylakoid and each stack is a granum (pl. grana).

The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place within the thylakoids. These reactions occur when the pigment chlorophyll, located within the thylakoid membranes, captures energy from the sun (photons) to initiate the breakdown of water molecules.
