Answer:

10 MIN

Explanation:

People who appear to be absolutely normal are talking to their families, walking around the mall, watching a game when they suddenly have a cardiac arrest. In this case the ideal is to immediately start a resuscitation maneuver and call for medical help, however, this is a difficult situation and time is extremely determinant in the patient's survival.

Many experts claim that within 5 minutes, 50% of individuals who have suffered a cardiac arrest will be dead and thereafter 10% will die with every passing minute. So when all is said and done, in ten minutes everyone will be dead. Thus, we can state that 10 minutes would be a reasonable time to consider resuscitation interruption after complete resuscitation efforts without detectable heart rate.

Tina’s 83-year-old great uncle forgets where he is during his yearly check-up. He doesn’t remember if he’s had memory problems b

He actually could be having a stroke.


He could have Dementia or Alzheimer’s disease.

He could have a concussion.

He could have brain damage from substance abuse or smoking.

Treatment for memory loss depends on the cause. In many cases, it may be reversible with treatment.

For example, memory loss from medications may resolve with a change in medication.

Nutritional supplements can be useful against memory loss caused by a nutritional deficiency. And treating depression may be helpful for memory when depression is a factor.

In some cases -- such as following a stroke -- therapy may help people remember how to do certain tasks such as walking or tying shoes.

In others, memory may improve over time.

Treatments may also be specific to conditions related to memory loss.

For example, drugs are available to treat memory problems related to Alzheimer's disease, and drugs to help lower blood pressure can help reduce risk of more brain damage from dementia related to high blood pressure.

Hope this helped!
