The nurse must intervene to the patient by persuading him to stop smoking.

The cigarettes are responsible for this ischemia

*Smoking reduces the amount of oxygen in the blood, causing shortness of breath and impaired muscle function.

*Smoking hurts the arteries, causing life-threatening spasms.

*Smoking affects the blood clotting, promoting, among other things, the formation of clots and therefore the potential trigger of an infarct, phlebitis or stroke.

*Smoking causes inflammation of the blood vessels, which also causes clots to form.

*Smoking lowers the level of good cholesterol, which is a long-term risk factor for the cardiovascular system.

The implication of alcohol consumption in lower limb ischemia is still debated

In what way is surface area more important for cells than volume?
Virty [35]

Answer:

As a cell grows in size, the surface area gets bigger, but the volume gets bigger faster. Thinking about this as a ratio (division), the volume is the denominator and the surface area is the numerator. If the volume is getting very big, then the ratio itself will be getting very small.
