Answer: Medical Vulnerability

Explanation:

A medical vulnerability is a situation in which the patient is unable to protect himself and herself from diseases and their associated symptoms. In such a situation the patient is unable to care himself or herself against exploitation or harm caused by the disease-causing pathogen. The patient becomes desperate to get a possible cure or treatment to resume the normal healthy lifestyle.

Should an oncology patient be allowed to try an experimental treatment? Or should the patient not be allowed to try it? Why not?
dybincka [34]

In my opinion, an oncology patient should not be allowed to try an experimental treatment because it does not meet ethical guidelines. This situation is framed in a law known as 'Right to Try'.

All medical treatments must follow a series of clinical trials in order to assess the safety and effectiveness of the treatment.

The use of experimental treatment in patients seems unethical from any point of view.

However, the 'Right to Try' law is aimed at providing patients greater access to experimental therapies, and there are patient advocates who consider it will benefit patients.

In the USA, the Right-to-try law is aimed at allowing terminally ill patients access to different experimental therapies which completed only the first Phase testing and therefore have not been approved by the FDA.

How is HIV contracted, and what are the treatment options? (3 points)
kow [346]

Answer:

B). HIV is spread during unprotected sex or through contact with infected blood; it cannot be cured, but early treatment can minimise the long-term consequences.

Explanation:

HIV is an infection that is caused by human immunodeficiency virus. The virus spreads through contact with the infected bodily fluids such as semen, blood or vaginal fluids. Mostly people get infected due to unprotected sexual intercourse which results in transmission of infected bodily fluids during penal-vaginal contact. Another way of transmission of infection involves the sharing of the used needles obtained from the person infected with HIV.  

Further explanation:

The HIV infection attacks the immune system of the host body. It destroys the white blood cells of the body, as a result of which body immune system becomes ineffective to fight against the virus. A doctor can diagnose the presence of HIV virus in the bodily fluids by detecting the presence of HIV antibodies in the saliva, urine and blood. As the virus hampers the immune system, the body becomes weak and susceptible to diseases. The late detection cannot save the patient, but earlier detection and confirmation of the condition can help in providing treatment. The antiretroviral therapy slows the rate at which the virus multiplies in the patient body and is a kind of earlier treatment process. The doctor also performs two tests for the routine diagnosis and detection of virus:

Viral load: It is done to show the amount of virus present in the blood.

CD4+ cell count: It gives indication of how well the patient immune system is working to fight against the virus.
