If I Get Shot 5 Times In The Chest And There's No Hospital Near By, Whats More Than Likely To Happen?

Drupady [299]

Most likely... You die. Getting shot in the chest is a very devastating MOI (mechanism of injury). Three main issues can arise as a result of just one well placed GSW; If the projectile hits the heart othpericardium fatal bleeding into the sack or complete destruction of thud organ can result in death really quickly. Aditionally there are several major blood vessels exist in the chest, including the aorta, which if perforated can cause axanguanation (bleeding out within minutes). If one is lucky the the bullet would hit the lung, which is not an instant death sentence, however that's where luck will end, as a puncture of the plural space surrounding the lungs would become compromised, allowing are into the cavity reducing oxygen intake gradually; called a tension pneumothorax.

A nurse is monitoring a patient with aki. which lab findings should the nurse expect?

pantera1 [17]

A nurse is monitoring a patient with rapid increase of catecholamines. The correct option is b.

<h3>What is catecholamines?</h3>

Catecholamines, which include dopamine and norepinephrine, are the primary neurotransmitters that mediate many central nervous system functions, including motor control, cognition, emotion, memory processing, and endocrine modulation.

The physiological stimulus for catecholamine secretion is splanchnic nerve stimulation. Splanchnic nerve stimulation causes ACH to be released from nerve endings in the adrenal medulla.

A nurse is keeping an eye on a patient who is experiencing a rapid increase in catecholamines.

Thus, the correct option is b.

Which blood vessel is labeled B, and what is its function?

NeX [460]

I cannot find the picture, so I gonna proceed by elimination:
1 and 4 are false sentences: blood veins transport deoxygenated blood.
2 and 3 are both correct sentences, so now you need to see where the location of the labeled blood vessel is:
If it is on the heart, then it's probably a coronary artery.
If it is the vessel between the lung and the heart, then it is probably an pulmonary vein.
