Thirty people are injured in a train derailment. Which client should be transported to the hospital first?
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The answer is 4. A 25-year-old with a sucking chest wound.

Explanation:

The injured person who must be transported to the hospital in the first instance is the 25-year-old young patient with a chest wound due to suction; since his life, despite being at risk, can be saved. Priority is not given to the 20-year-old, since he does not respond and has a great spinal cord injury, as it is quite chaotic and poor prognosis.

When a child's bone is fractured, growth may be stimulated at the epiphyseal plate. what problems might this extra growth cause
ICE Princess25 [194]
Well because the human body was designed to be symmetrical, If this were to happen the child would live until the body compensates, with an uneven gait. This uneven gait can affect the curvature of the spine if it goes on long enough causing exaggerated curvatures, called Scoliosis.

Here is an interesting fact though, a fracture through the epiphyseal plate of developing children when broken can actually stop growth of the bone causing almost the exact same thing.
