The stomach is an organ located predominately in the Left Upper Quadrant (LUQ). The main responsibility of the stomach is to dissolve the ground up food approaching from the mouth through the esophagus, and break it down so it would be to a point wear nutrient could be absorbed.
To donthis task, the stomach must employ, as mentioned Salts and Enzymes, but the most important bit is a very strong acid; Hydrochloric Acid. Your stomach is one of the few organic things that can withstand such an acid.
Your lower gastrointestinal tract, better known as your large intestine, dehydrates your waste by absorbing the nutrients from your waste. Your large intestine then empties out waste using the anus.
The priority nursing diagnosis for a patient with SIADH is excess fluid volume, as the patient retains fluids and develops a sodium deficiency. Restricting fluid intake is a typical intervention for managing this syndrome. Temperature imbalances are not associated with SIADH. The patient is not at risk for neurovascular dysfunction or a compromised airway.
