Answer:

The correct option is : b. Bronchiole smooth muscle contracts which reduces the diameter of the airways

Explanation:

Asthma is an incurable inflammatory disease which affects the airways that carry the oxygen in and out of the lungs. It can be caused by various genetic and environmental factors. Asthma is characterized by breath shortness, coughing, chest tightness and wheezing.

It is caused due to the inflammation of the passage that conducts air into the lungs, especially the bronchi and the bronchioles. Asthma does not affect the alveoli. The inflammation of the bronchioles causes the contraction of the smooth muscles and results in narrowing of the airways. Therefore, causing wheezing.

alekssr [168]

A boggy uterus, an unexpectedly elevated fundus on palpation, and profuse lochia are all indicators of uterine atony. The nurse must report a PPH right away and get ready to administer intravenous fluids and oxygen while inserting a large-bore intravenous catheter if one isn't already there.

Continue massaging and giving uterotonics to a swampy uterus to promote uterine contraction. Give 20–40 units of oxytocin, an analog of the hormone with the same name found in the body, in 1 L of lactated Ringer (LR) at a rate of 600 mL/h to sustain uterine contraction and manage hemorrhage. (b) Firmly massage the fundus if it is squishy (do not over-massage, this fatigues the muscle). (c) Until the patient's vital signs are stable, check on them every 15 minutes. (d) Avoid bladder enlargement.
