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 ♥

<span>c. single-unit packaging.

Single-unit packaging is when the only quantity of medication that's given to the patient is that that's enough for that intake. In an institutional setting, medication is given at the right time, at meals, or off meals, whenever it is prescribed - the patient does not need to worry with when to take or how many he/she still have. The dose given is to be taken right then and is prepared for only one dose intake.</span>

A client is admitted to the hospital with endocarditis. the nurse understands that balloon percutaneous valvuloplasty risk factors can lead to the development of endocarditis.

<h3>What is Endocarditis?</h3>
  • Inflammation of the heart's lining, heart muscles, and heart valves is a symptom of the uncommon illness known as endocarditis.
  • It is also referred to as fungal endocarditis, infectious endocarditis, bacterial endocarditis, and infective endocarditis.
  • Endocarditis is brought on by an infection of the endocardium.
  • Typically, staphylococcal or streptococcal bacteria are to blame for the infection.
  • Occasionally, fungus or other contagious microorganisms can be the reason.
  • Men experience it twice as frequently as women.
  • Over 25% of instances in the US involve adults 60 years of age or older.

In order for oxygen to diffuse from the alveoli into the capillaries, the partial pressure of the oxygen in the alveoli in the l
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

In an organism, the mechanism of gas exchange depends on the partial pressure and total pressure of the gas.  Partial pressure is the pressure of the gas exerted by a single type of gas in a mixture of gases and this pressure determines the movement of gases in the system.

The diffusion of the oxygen from the alveoli to blood capillaries depends on the partial pressure as the partial pressure of oxygen is high in alveoli measured about 104 mmHg compared to the capillaries measured about 40 mmHg.

This difference in the pressure generates pressure gradient which leads to the movement of the oxygen from alveoli to the capillaries as the movement takes place from higher to lower concentration gradient.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
