Answer:

Suction the airway with a catheter

Explanation:

It is given that a 57-year-old male has met with an accident and is struggling for life.

His noise is bleeding and he is finding it difficult to breathe thus breathing with an agonal gurgling sound.  His respiration is inadequate and is having a rapid and weak pulse.

Thus the first life saving step to be taken is inserting a catheter in his mouth and suck the airway out of it so that the breathing becomes normal. By doing such more oxygen will pass onto the brain and the heart.

By this the person can be saved and now can wait for the arrival of the medical team.

Thus the answer is "Suction the airway with a catheter"

Discuss challenges associated with maintaining multiple interfaces between health care systems.
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Challenges to using more than one Electronic Medical Record (EMR) can be grouped into several categories. The primary challenge is mitigating risk to patient safety. Others include ease of viewing the patient’s record, user ability to master multiple EMR functionalities and workflows, and institutional costs.

The greatest risk of multiple EMR use is the risk of missing data and any corresponding decision support that impact patient safety. Some of the features of EMRs that are cited as making care safer, such as improving communication, providing access to patient information, and stopping mistakes at the ordering process may be more difficult to achieve if more than one EMR is used without appropriate integration. A secondary but significant risk encompasses increased practitioner time requirement for both patient care and for training which results in loss of income and in provider dissatisfaction with the EMR.

Explanation:

Electronic Medical Record EMR as a computing system that provides medical record functionality including review and entry of notes and other health information, results management, order entry, decision support, electronic communication and connectivity, patient support, and others as described elsewhere.

By “more than one or multiple interface EMR” we mean that a patient cared for in the ambulatory and inpatient setting of that health care organization will have electronic record data and functionality described above spread across more than one EMR system, and that practitioners will require access to content or functionality from more than one EMR while delivering care
