<span>If a listener has difficulty understanding a message because the speaker is using workplace jargon, or overly complicated terminology. This is called noise.

Noise is defined as anything that interferes with the communication causing the receiver to lose track with what is being said. This can be in the form of using jargon or abbreviations that the listener does not understand or is not familiar with.</span>

Is fluoride toxic? Almost all of Europe has it banned. Many other countries also have a complete ban on it including Israel - Is

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: it is bad

Explanation: Sherrod Beall, in a recent letter (“Base fluoride policy on science, please,” Oct. 8), supports fluoride in our drinking water and feels that there isn’t enough science to show that it is toxic.

In 2015, the Cochrane Collaboration, a global independent network of health care professionals and researchers, known for meticulous scientific reviews of public health policies, published an analysis of 20 crucial studies on water fluoridation. They concluded the early scientific studies on fluoridation (most were conducted before 1975) were deeply flawed. Countries that do not fluoridate water have also seen drops in cavity rates.

While 70% of the U.S. fluoridates public drinking supplies, most modernized nations actually ban fluoride from their drinking water. Austria, Belgium, China, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Norway and the Netherlands all refuse to use it for consumption. The U.S. is one of the only developed countries that fluoridate their citizens’ drinking water.

Toronto has been fluoridating its drinking water for 50-plus years, yet has a higher cavity rate than Vancouver, which does not fluoridate!

Cavity rates are low all across the industrialized world, including Europe, which is 90% fluoride-free. The rates are low because of regular dental checkups, flossing and frequent brushing, and improved standards of living. The World Health Organization‘s data from 1970-2010 states that in non-fluoridated and fluoridated countries, tooth decay rates of 12-year-olds declined at the same rate.

The intake of fluoride has never been tested for safety on humans! Children and adults who use fluoride toothpastes, mouthwashes, gels and supplements are far exceeding the recommended intake. The warning on the labels of these items states to, “Call Poison Control if Ingested!“ This is mind-blowing, blind-eyed logic for sure.

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which finding would first indicate that naloxone administration has been effective? Would be: An increase in respiratory rate from 8 to 12 rpm.

Explanation:

Narcotic drugs, especially heroine in large amounts (overdose) have the opposite effect to what they are usually meant for, which is excitatory. In overdoses heroine and other narcotid drugs will cause a CNS depression and therefore most body functions will be severely affected, as it is seen from the blood pressure and heart rate of this patient, as well as his/her respiratory rate. But most worrying of all is that heroine, as a depressant, can lead a patient to comatose states, and even total respiratory failure. Naloxone, the medication designed to revert the effects of several narcotic drugs, such as heroine, will first be seen in action with the increase in respiratory rate, as the depressive effects start to decrease. Other functions such as heart rate, blood pressure and levels of conciousness will start picking back up as the body gets rid of the substance. But Naloxone will first revert the depression on the respiratory centers in the brain.

puteri [66]

Answer:

Diagnosis codes, such as the ICD-10-CM, are officially called the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification. These codes describe an individual's disease or medical condition. Physicians determine the patient's diagnosis and document this in the medical record, while trained billers assign the diagnosis code numbers to the physician-documented diagnosis for use on hospital forms such as a superbill, the CMS 1500, and the UB-04.
