The health specialist assigns and ICD-9 CM code E000.0 - E999.1 for classification of external causes of injury and poisoning. Since the patient suffered a fractured tibia while on a ski trip, it doesn't mean that he was injured while skiing. The health specialist will need to find the main cause of his fractured tibia, and in that, will be given ICD-9 code E000.0 - E999.1.
Severe pain that comes in waves may be caused by kidney stones. Trauma to the body wall, hernias, and shingles can also cause lower abdominal pain.
As a face to love being serous?
The right answer is B. Begin chest compressions.
Chest compression is a first aid gesture that occurs under two circumstances:
** the victim is conscious and chokes (total obstruction of the upper airways) but can not practice Heimlich's method (example of a pregnant woman or an obese person, or an infant on which the method Mofenson failed, or an unconscious victim for whom the insufflations do not pass); the purpose here is to cause an overpressure in the lungs to dislodge the foreign body;
** the victim is unconscious, does not breathe and his heart is no longer beating, the chest compressions are used here to circulate the blood; alternating thirty chest compressions and two breaths (mouth-to-mouth); all artificial ventilation / cardiac massage is called cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
One important concept to know that was not mentioned in the question or in the propositions is that there has to be a cardiopulmonary arrest to start the chest compression because there is we may have an unconscious victim who does not respond but breathes!
