1 answer:

6 0

Distillation is the process of separation in which the volatile parts of a liquid mixture are separated by selective boiling and condensation. This process may lead to partial separation or complete separation. Distillation is employed for a considerable number of commercial processes such as the production of alcohol, kerosene gasoline, etc. During a distillation, it is important that a drop of condensate be suspended from the thermometer because it allows steady distillation and a stable temperature.

In the first 2.5 hours after a radical neck dissection, 40 ml of medium-red, bloody fluid is obtained from the client's drainage

cluponka [151]

The nurse should assess the patient vital sign and notify the healthcare provider. For 2.5 hour after neck dissection, production of 40ml by the drainage is a bit excessive. There might be a bleeding in the site of operation that becomes the source of the drainage. Change dressing will not do anything. Applying pressure can be done if the site of bleeding is known.
