A client has recently developed osteomyelitis. the client's laboratory reports show strains of escherichia coli. what might be a

Romashka [77]3 years ago

The possible reason for this condition is Staphylococcus aureus. Staphylococcus aureus causes over 50% of bone infections. Other organisms include Proteus vulgaris and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as well as E. coli.  The Treatment of acute osteomyelitis includes large doses of I.V. antibiotics (after blood cultures identify the infecting organism). Surgical drainage may be indicated, and the affected bone is immobilized. The client usually requires I.V. fluids to maintain hydration, but oral intake isn't necessarily prohibited.

Suppose that at a given point along a capillary, the following forces exist: Capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mmHg Inte
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Suppose that at a given point along a capillary, the following forces exist: Capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mmHg Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (HPif) = 0 mmHg Capillary colloid osmotic pressure (OPc) = 25 mmHg Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure (OPif) = 2 mmHg. The net filtration pressure at this point in the capillary is <u>7mmHg.</u>

Explanation:

  • Data:

Capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mmHg

Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (HPif) = 0 mmHg

Capillary colloid osmotic pressure (OPc) = 25 mmHg

Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure (OPif) = 2 mmHg

  • Formula Applied :

Net filtration pressure= hydrostatic pressure gradient -  Oncotic pressure gradient

Hydrostatic pressure gradient = Capillary hydrostatic pressure - Interstitial hydrostatic pressure = 30mmHg - 0 mmHg = 30 mmHg

Oncotic pressure gradient =  Capillary colloid osmotic pressure - Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure =25  - 2 = 23 mmHg

Net filtration pressure= hydrostatic pressure gradient -  Oncotic pressure gradient = 30 mmHg - 23 mmHg = 7 mmHg.

Hence, The net filtration pressure at this point in the capillary is <u>7mmHg.</u>

How does the phosphorous cycle differ from the nitrogen cycle and the carbon cycle?
Varvara68 [4.7K]
The phosphorus cycle does not include an atmospheric component because phosphorus does not cycle through the atmosphere. In comparison, important processes of the carbon and nitrogen cycle occur in the atmosphere.

What
mafiozo [28]
I think the veins absorb the photons because they're located at the top part of a leaf while the stomata that serves as the leaf's lungs are found at the under side.

Dna codes for the sequence of amino acids in the primary structure of a protein, but not for sugars or lipids. This is because?
s2008m [1.1K]

Proteins are the main structural and functional components of cells.

Each group of three bases in mRNA constitutes a codon, and each codon specifies a particular amino acid. The mRNA sequence is thus used as a template to assemble in order the chain of amino acids that form a protein.

The sequence of a protein is determined by the DNA of the gene that encodes the protein change in the gene's DNA sequence may lead to a change in the amino acid sequence of the protein. The sequence of amino acids of a protein determines protein shape, since the chemical properties of each amino acid are forces that give rise to intermolecular interactions to begin to create secondary structures, such as α-helices and β-strands.

Why is it important to understand the process of mitosis
Katyanochek1 [597]
It is important to understand because it's the way all cells reproduce (except sperm and egg cells, they do meiosis), and our cells are the essential parts of our whole being.
