You are helping the school nurse decide which students are most at risk for health problems. Look at these four cases. Which per

son seems most likely to abuse drugs because of peer pressure? Everyone in Margene's family smokes. She has decided not to start. Her best friends are also committed to abstaining from tobacco use. Jacob plays basketball and has to be the best player on the team. He practices all the time and eats a diet high in protein, carbohydrates, and vitamins. Rhonda lives in a housing project. Her parents work hard, and the whole family checks on her social life regularly to make sure she studies and stays active. Ramon is outgoing and likes to give parties at his house. He's easygoing, and he likes the company because his parents are away a lot.

Either Jacob or Ramon, because Jacob is the best player and Ramon, is like the popular cool kid at school and he throws the parties so he obviously wants to be the popular kid while Jacob has to always practice and be the best. they both have lots of peer pressure.  but I will say Ramon more because his parents are away a lot and he has no supervision so he can whatrever he likes. So Ramon.


Hope this helps correct me if i'm wrong:)

While hospitalized, an elderly patient with a history of myocardial infarction was noted to have high levels of low-density lipo
Montano1993 [528]

An analysis revealed that a hospitalized elderly patient with a history of MI had high levels of Low-density Lipoprotein (LDL), suggesting a risk of developing Hyperdyslipidemia/ Coronary Artery Disease (Artherosclerosis).

What occurs when there are elevated levels of LDL?

  • LDL cholesterol is known as "bad" cholesterol because it builds up in the walls of your blood vessels, raising your risk of health problems such as a heart attack or stroke.
  • Cholesterol, on the other hand, is not wholly bad.
  • Your body needs it to protect its neurons and manufacture healthy cells and hormones.
  • Some of your cholesterol comes from the foods you eat, while the remainder is made by your liver.
  • Proteins take it to its location since it does not disintegrate in blood.
  • These carriers are known as lipoproteins.
  • A blood test may assess LDL, HDL, and total cholesterol levels.
  • Triglycerides, a kind of fat that retains excess energy from the diet, are also tested.

Blood borne pathogens standard applies only to health-care workers.<br> a. true <br> b. false
Shtirlitz [24]

False.

  • The bloodborne pathogens standard, which doesn't just apply to staff working in healthcare environments, addresses the general problem of occupational exposure to blood and other potentially infectious materials.
  • Any person who has occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials is included within the scope of this standard since no group is at zero risk for hepatitis B and the human immunodeficiency virus.
  • OSHA expects that this standard will have an impact on the industries. It is important to note that "occupational exposure" is defined as "reasonably anticipated skin, eye, mucous membrane, or parenteral contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials that may result from the performance of an employee's duties."

Therefore, this statement is correct.
