EastWind [94]

Answer:

The  burn may be classified as a <u>Fourth-degree burn with 31 % of TBSA.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

There are 4 types of burn classifications: Superficial burn <u>(first-degree)</u>, Superficial partial thickness burn or Deep partial thickness burn<u> (second-degree),</u> Full thickness burn <u>(third-degree),</u> and Fourth-degree burn.

<h3>Superficial burn or First-degree burn</h3>
  • Involved layer is <u>epidermis</u>
  • It appears red <u>without blisters</u> with <u>dry</u> texture
  • With sensation of <u>pain is present</u>
  • Healing time <u>within 5 - 10 days</u> and heals well with <u>no complications</u>.
<h3>Superficial partial thickness burn/Deep partial thickness burn or Second-degree burn</h3>
  • It extends to the <u>dermis</u>. (<em>papillary</em> for superficial, <em>reticular</em> for deep)
  • <u>Blanches with pressure</u>, <u>with or without blistering</u>, <u>red to yellow, white appearance, moist to dry texture</u>
  • It still presents <u>with pain</u>, superficial and deep.
  • Healing may take <u>2-3 weeks for superficial, 3-8 weeks for deep</u>. Local infection may occur and scarring may ensue.
<h3>Full thickness burn (Third-degree)</h3>
  • Destroys the <u>entire dermis.</u>
  • <u>Stiff with white-brown appearance</u>, <u>NO blanching, with leathery texture.</u>
  • <u>Painless</u>
  • <u>Long time needed for recovery</u>. It may need surgical removal of dead tissue.
<h3>Fourth-degree burn</h3>
  • Encompasses the <u>whole layer of skin and underlying fat, exposing the bones and/or muscles.</u>
  • <u>Black and charred (eschar), dry texture.</u>
  • <u>Painless</u>
  • Definitely <u>needs surgical removal of dead tissue</u> to allow recovery.
  • It may also cause <u>significant functional disability</u>.
<h3 /><h3>Wallace “Rule of Nines” </h3>

To determine for the burn percentage, we use the <em>Wallace “Rule of Nines” </em>chart. It <u>estimates the percentage of total body surface area (TBSA) that has been destroyed by burns</u>. The diagram attached shows the body divided into multiple sections which represent 9% of the body surface area.

For the example, we have the following given and corresponding percentages:

  • Entire surface of the right lower limb - 18% (the whole right leg is affected, front and back, so that's 18%)
  • Entire surface of right trunk - 9% (The trunk is 18% in whole, but in this example, only the right trunk is affected, so that's 9%)
  • Anterior surface of the right upper limb - 4.5% (Only the front surface of the right arm is affected so it's 4.5%)

% TSBA = 18 + 9 + 4.5

<h3><u>% TSBA = 31.5 %</u></h3>

PLEASE HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST <br><br><br> what is a simile for pro choice (abortion)
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

A few weeks ago, Planned Parenthood quietly announced it would be distancing itself from the term pro-choice. And not replacing it with, well, anything. “Planned Parenthood hopes to move beyond such terms entirely,” reported Anna North at BuzzFeed, “and present abortion as something too complicated to be divided into two sides.”

The very appeal of the term pro-choice was that it encompassed all decisions — not just whether or not to keep a pregnancy. For ardent supporters of the movement, it connotes not just access to abortion and contraception, but also comprehensive sex ed and prenatal care and routine gynecological checkups. The core idea, any feminist will tell you, is that when it comes to pregnancy and childbirth, women have the right to choose what happens in their own bodies, and we should collectively do what we can to protect and support those choices. We’ve all heard the talking points a million times.
