I tried im a student for CNA

Explanation: 1. Blood pressure is the pressure of circulating blood on the walls of blood vessels. Most of this pressure is due to work done by the heart by pumping blood through the circulatory system. Used without further specification, "blood pressure" usually refers to the pressure in large arteries of the systemic circulation.

2. The arteries (red) carry oxygen and nutrients away from your heart, to your body's tissues. The veins (blue) take oxygen-poor blood back to the heart. Arteries begin with the aorta, the large artery leaving the heart.

The nurse has just finished teaching a client newly diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis about the disease. The nurse determines
8_murik_8 [283]

Given what we know about rheumatoid arthritis, we can confirm that the nurse can determine that the teaching is effective when the client makes the statement that "<em>Rheumatoid arthri</em><em>tis includes </em><em>joint involvement </em><em>that is usually </em><em>symmetric </em><em>and </em><em>polyarticular</em>".

Arthritis is one of many diseases in the autoimmune category. An autoimmune disease is one in which the immune system of the patient attacks its own cells. <em><u>The reasons behind this remain unknown</u></em>. In the case of Rheumatoid arthritis, the attacks remain isolated to the joints. The immune system causes the joints to be unable to produce synovial liquid, which causes inflamation.

As stated by the patient, Rheumatoid arthritis includes joint involvement that is usually symmetric and polyarticular. What this means is that any diarthrodial joint can be affected by the condition and is usually collateral, meaning that <u>if the left hand is affected, the right hand often is as well.</u>

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are one of the commonest causes of medication error in developed countries, particularly in the elderly due to poly-therapy, with a prevalence of 20-40%. In particular, poly-therapy increases the complexity of therapeutic management and thereby the risk of clinically important DDIs, which can both induce the development of adverse drug reactions or reduce the clinical efficacy. DDIs can be classify into two main groups: pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic. In this review, using Medline, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library and Reference lists we searched articles published until June 30 2012, and we described the mechanism of pharmacokinetic DDIs focusing the interest on their clinical implications.

Keywords: Absorption, adverse drug reaction, distribution, drug-drug interactions, excretion, metabolism, poly-therapy
