Medicine

Ksju [112]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

When administering adenosine, the nurse must inject it through the IV push route.

Explanation:

Adenosine belongs to the drug class of antidysrhythmics and hence proper care and monitoring should be taken to avoid any adverse or side effects while or after administering the dose. Adenosine should be injected only via the IV route. The injection should be made close to an IV site, so as to flush each time with NS. The patient’s heart conditions should be monitored continuously on an ECG monitor and blood pressure machine. The dosage levels should match with the age appropriately. Adverse reactions of adenosine may include transient arrhythmias, bronchospasms, dyspnea etc.

Answer:The final step in both pathways would be the activation of factor X, leading to conversion of prothrombin II to thrombin IIa. Option C.

Explanation: blood coagulation is the processes that leads to blood clot formation. The blood clot formed is made up of fibrin and platelets, which forms hemostatic plug over a wound site. The blood coagulation is made up of two partways that led to the formation of clot. The intrinsic pathway also called contact activation pathway and the extrinsic pathway which is also known as the tissue factor pathway. The both pathways are connected by a common pathway whereby factor X is activated leading to leading to conversion of prothrombin II to thrombin IIa. Thrombin then converts fibrinogen to fibrin( blood clot). I hope this helps. Thanks.
