Answer:

The best answer to the question: A nurse is monitoring the laboratory values of a client who is receiving heparin. Which of the following values should a nurse report to the provider? would be: D: aPTT of 50 seconds.

Explanation:

Unlike Warfarin and the low-molecular weight heparin, medically speaking, the one diagnostic test that is still being used as a measure of heparin´s therapeutic achievements in a patient with a coagulopathy, is the activated partial thromboplastin time aPTT. Although the measurement in seconds, will depend on the laboratory that is doing the measuring, and despite scientific evidence that points to the fact that aPTT is not the most accurate of laboratory measurements for a patient with heparin, it is still being used today and still is the leading laboratory test for these types of patients.

an older adult client has come to the clinic with new complaints of fatigue, constipation, and cold intolerance. the nurse would
Liula [17]

The nurse would refer the client for a thyroid function test. The thyroid function test is a blood test that measures how well your thyroid is working. The test measures the levels of thyroid hormones in your blood.

The thyroid is a small gland located in the lower front of the neck. The gland produces thyroid hormones, which are secreted into the blood and then carried to every tissue in the body. Thyroid hormones help the body use energy, stay warm and keep the brain, heart, muscles, and other organs working as they should. The most common thyroid disorder is hypothyroidism, which occurs when the gland does not make enough thyroid hormone. Symptoms of hypothyroidism can include fatigue, weight gain, constipation, dry skin, and feeling cold.

4) Considering the autonomic (visceral) nervous system identify which neurons are cholinergic and
Oxana [17]
<h2>Cholinergic and Adrenergic neurons</h2>

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a dual innervations system which innervates internal organs of the body through the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). Depending upon the neurotransmitter and receptor used, the ANS fibers are classified as cholinergic or adrenergic neurons.

The preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic and the preganglionic and postganglionic neurons of the parasympathetic nervous system release the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACH) and hence are called cholinergic neurons.

The postganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system releases catecholamine like norepinephrine(NE) and hence called as adrenergic neurons.

The cholinergic neurons store ACH in the synaptic terminals. They are myelinated to aid in faster neurotransmission. The ACH neurotransmitter released from preganglionic neurons activates the two receptors – nicotinic ACH and muscarinic receptors on the postganglionic neurons .

The postganglionic neurons releasing NE binds to the adrenergic receptors – Alpha 1 and 2, Beta 1, 2, and 3.
