Several interventions are possible. It depends on the cause of the Cushing's disease. If it was caused by long term use of corticosteroids then the best intervention would be to reduce and eventually stop taking the prescribed corticosteroids. If it is caused by a tumor then surgical interventions are possible or radiation treatment. Medications can be used to control cortisol production in the body. In addition counselling would be beneficial as an additional treatment to help the patient deal with any body issues arising from the condition as physically the condition causes certain characteristics that might impact on one's self esteem.

What items other than the pads might be found with an AED

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pads are used for both children and adults. Pediatric pads are used for kids that are younger than eight years. Then there are standard pads, and they will be used on the kids only if pediatric ones aren't present at the scene. The adult or standard pads can't teach one another. Then we have a manual defibrillator, it is usually used on the new-borns. If there's no manual defibrillator, an AED should be used. Some of the AEDs can be switched on so they can deliver a pediatric shock. If we have one at the scene, we should switch it on if we are going to use it on the children younger than age of eight.
