3. Respirator

4. Supplemental oxygen

5. Patent

6. Ventilation perfusion scan

7. Sputum cytology

Explanation:

In Human anatomy, cardiac cycle can be defined as a complete heartbeat of the human heart which comprises of sequential alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles, therefore causing blood to flow unidirectionally (one direction) throughout the human body.

Generally, the cardiac cycle occurs in two (2) stages;

I. Diastole : in this stage, the ventricles is relaxed and would be filled with blood.

II. Systole: at this stage, the muscles contracts and thus, allow blood to be pushed through the atria.

1. When the patient’s breathing and heart stopped, the paramedics began cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This is usually performed by professionals or experts so as to revive a patient whose respiratory system is failing.

2. The physician performed a thoracentesis to remove fluid from the chest.

3. A respirator is also called a ventilator. It is an electrical device that is designed to provide oxygen for patients having difficult in breathing.

4. The patient received supplemental oxygen through a nasal cannula. This is used to sustain the breathe of a patient.

5. An endotracheal intubation was performed to establish a patent airway.

6. A ventilation perfusion scan is a particularly useful test to identify a pulmonary embolus

7. The result of the sputum cytology was negative for cancer.

8. Hyperventilation involves tachypnea and hyperpnea.

9. Rhonchi are wheezing lung sounds.

10. Miners are at risk of developing Anthracosis. This is due to the inhalation of pollutants arising from coal.

When combined with alcohol or other depressant drugs, the depressant effect of antihistamines can be much greater?
Alik [6]
The statement that w<span>hen combined with alcohol or other depressant drugs, the depressant effect of antihistamines can be much greater is true. If you consume alcohol while taking drugs or antidepressant medicates, their effect will be greater. The effect of the alcohol on the drugs depends on their structure and purpose. Because both alcohol and depressant drugs have sedative effect of the body, the depressant effect will be much greater.</span>

Which of the following describes what can occur once a person begins taking a drug?
tangare [24]
The answer is all of the above. This is so because any illegal drug is addicting because if the stimulants that effect your brain, and because of how they make the person feel... AKA they get high... Also, the person who takes the drug begins to "need" it to feel normal or better. this is called withdraw effects when the person has gone so long without taking an injection or something, then they start to become disorientated and feel bad until they take the drug again. this is part of the addiction. At first though, the person takes the drug and does not feel negative effects, so they most likely "sense" that it is OK to continue taking the drug despite known facts. Then after the short time, they do actually become fully addicted. But despite this, the addiction is usually most immediate.
