Hello!


Clubbed finger tips usually means the person has lung or heart disease. It only makes sense if he smokes a lot of cigarettes (2 packs is a lot). The more he smokes everyday, the higher chance he could get the disease.  Just to be sure, you might want to do tests for lung and heart disease. The coughing up blood might be a the result of smoking. It really depends on his state of shape and all of that stuff.


Have a lovely day! ~Pooch ♥

A highly successful strategy for challenging the beliefs and attitudes that contribute to health disparities is?
Nady [450]

A highly successful strategy for challenging the beliefs and attitudes that contribute to health disparities is practicing mindfulness.

<h3>Mindfulness and Behavior Change:</h3>

The majority of chronic medical and psychiatric problems are treatable and avoidable with the help of behavior modification, which must be started and maintained. The development of mindfulness, which entails accepting and not passing judgment on the experience of the moment, frequently yields transformational alterations in health behavior.

The significance of neural systems in learning and motivation is significant. Them is necessary to develop a theoretical framework for mindfulness that incorporates these mechanisms together with the frequently discussed cognitive, emotional, and self-related processes and applies them to changing health behavior.

In order to understand the complex effects of mindfulness on behavior change, this integrative review (1) defines mindfulness and describes the mindfulness-based intervention movement, (2) synthesizes the neuroscience of mindfulness and integrates motivation and learning mechanisms within a mindful self-regulation model, and (3) synthesizes recent clinical research.

The medical facility where Jen receives treatment was hacked. Which personal information in her medical records could result in
Nitella [24]

The answer is C. Social security number

Explanation:

Factors such as weight or blood pressure are not unique to individuals, indeed, many people can have the same weight or blood pressure. Due to this, this information cannot be used to steal someone's identity or pretend to be that person.

This does not occur with the social security number because each social security number identifies a particular individual. As a result, this information might be used by identity thieves because they can use the social security number of an individual and pretend they are this individual, which can be used to access services and benefits.

How long does it take for dissolvable stitches to dissolve after birth
xeze [42]

Answer:

After delivery, the doctor or midwife usually closes the perineal tear with stitches. The stitches will dissolve in 1 to 2 weeks, so they will not need to be removed. You may notice pieces of the stitches on your sanitary pad or on the toilet paper when you go to the washroom (:
