A bag-mask is a medical device designed to ventilate a patient in respiratory arrest.

It must be on hand in an emergency department of the hospital or an ambulance.

It can be used before or after intubation while waiting for a mechanical respirator.

It can be used in CPR.

The bag-mask is preferably connected to a source of oxygen.

To use it requires 2 hands:

The right-hand holds the ball and exerts pressure with the 4 fingers to push the air (press with the thumb is an error).

The left hand applies the mask to the mouth and the nose, keeping a good seal, then putting the hand on the chest of the victim to check if there is an expansion/shrinkage of the rib cage due to the entry of the air.

Hmm... Well that is a question you should never really be asking the internet, or trying to make guesswork. Usually Streptococcus infections are tested for a variety of features and then dosages are prescribed based on progression and strain of the bacteria. One thing is for certain though, you follow a doctors dosage and specific medication requirement. If you are asking this question because you think you might have a Strep infection, and you do happen to have left over antibiotics... do not take them, If the medication hasn't been tainted in the first place, it's a good way to get certain antibiotic resistant infections. 

Toss them in the trash, see your doctor for a prescription and dosage requirements, and follow through with that current prescription.

There are choices for this question namely: 

<span>a. 40% to 50%
b. 50% to 70% 
c. 70% to 85%
d. 85% to 100%

The correct answer is 50% to 70%. Moderate-intensity activity is noted when a person reaches 50% to 70% of his or her maximum heart rate in exercise. The maximum heart rate is determined by subtracting the age to 220. 

<em>For example, a 54-year-old male with type 2 diabetes needs to have moderate intensity activity. His maximum heart rate is (220-54) which is 166 bpm. 50% to 70% of 166 is 83-116 bpm. Therefore he should exercise and raise his heart rate at 83-116 bpm. </em>

MrRa [10]

Answer:

B. Dr. O'Malley is obtaining informed consent from his participants. Dr. Quick is debriefing her participants.

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in this scenario Dr. O'Malley is obtaining informed consent from his participants. Dr. Quick is debriefing her participants. That is because by telling the participants that the experiment is voluntary and that they can stop at any time, then by continuing to partake in the experiment the participants are providing informed consent. Dr. Quick on the other hand is talking to the participants about the experiment that they have just undergone and what happened, thus debriefing them.
