Answer:

The G0008 code is the correct code for vaccination administration as per the HCPCS-G code system.

Explanation:

The HCPCS codes for vaccination administration in general ranges from G0008-G0010 and G0008 is specifically for ‘administration of influenza virus vaccine’.

The G codes are temporary codes assigned in the HCPCS code system for medical procedures and services that are still under review and hence cannot be enlisted through the CPT coding system which has various codes like 90471, 90473 etc., for influenza vaccination depending upon its type.

G0008 is mostly selected for administering the flu vaccine to Medicare patients.

Drupady [299]
Explanation: An example of positive feedback is milk production by a mother for her baby. A negative feedback loop is one way that the endocrine system tries to keep homeostasis (stability) in the body. If an endocrine gland senses that there is too much of one hormone in the body, it will initiate changes to decrease production of that hormone.

a nurse is caring for a client who is has a pulmonary embolism and has a new prescription for enoxaparin 1.5mg/kg/dose subcutane
yaroslaw [1]

The initial few hours following an embolism are the most dangerous for complications or death. 167 mg should the nurse administer per dose.

<h3>What is meant by pulmonary embolism?</h3>

A blood clot in a lung artery blocks blood flow to a portion of the lung, resulting in a pulmonary embolism (PE). Most frequently, blood clots begin in the legs, move through the right side of the heart, and enter the lungs. DVT is the medical term for this (DVT).

A pulmonary embolism may disappear on its own, but with the right diagnosis and care, it is rarely lethal. However, if untreated, it can become serious and result in other health issues, even death. An embolism in the lungs can: harm the heart.

The initial few hours following an embolism are the most dangerous for complications or death. A second PE happening within six weeks of the first one is also highly likely. Because of this, treatment is required right away and must last for roughly three months.
