Why is hypothermia used in an open heart surgery?

History
1 answer:
Eva8 [605]3 years ago
4 0

Hypothermia is used widely during open heart surgery due to its cytoprotective effects.  In addition to this, other mechanisms of therapeutic hypothermia include suppression of free radicals, inhibition of destructive enzymatic reactions, reduction in metabolic requirements in low-flow regions, and inhibition of the biosynthesis, release, and uptake of excitatory neurotransmitters. Through these mechanisms, hypothermia provides a favorable balance between oxygen supply and demand, slows the onset of ischemic depolarization, decreases the release of ischemic-induced intracellular calcium influx, and suppresses nitric oxide synthase activity.

Hypothermia is widely used in open cardiac surgery not only to protect against perioperative brain ischemia that could potentially develop, but also the myocardium.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although you do not mention what was your week's issue of Studies Weekly to help you answer this question, we can indeed comment on the reason why some Hindus were polytheistic, while others were monotheistic.

Here we go.

Historians and scholars say that in Hinduism, there is a monotheistic conception of divinity but also a polytheistic pantheon of gods for the following reasons.

There is what we can understand as a monotheistic conception of one god in Hinduism. This concept teaches that there is one great mighty god, Hindus call it Brahman. He is the divine force that created everything. So Hindus believe in this original creative force that gave life to everything.

On the other hand, there is a polytheistic approach to Hinduism in that believes that different deities stem from that great Brahman god. We are talking about deities such as Shiva, Ishvara, Hanuman, Ganesha, Vishnu, Vedi, Krishna, Rama, Durga, and Kali, among many others. Hindu pantheon is extensive.

These many gods represented one aspect of creation and Earth, such as the deity of creation and destruction, a deity for knowledge, a deity of dark, a deity of prosperity, and more.

What made Spain richer and stronger throughout the 1500's?
maria [59]
<span>Spain was really the first global superpower, although it might share that limelight with Portugal. Spain (and Portugal) were the first states to be able to truly project their power around the globe,and extend economic relations (i.e., trade) globally as well. After Ferdinand and Isabella united the Castille-Leon and Aragon crowns in 1492 to form the Spanish kingdom, the Habsburgs took over the Spanish imperial throne in the early 1500s, at a time when the Habsburgs ruled the Holy Roman Empire (i.e., most of Germany, Austria, eastern France, Netherlands, Switzerland, northern Italy, Bohemia, "Royal" Hungary, as well as southern Italy (Sicily and Naples). The Habsburg-Spanish imperial empire was at its height under Charles V and his son, Philip II in the 1500s, when Spanish troops were on the Rhine River, in South America, in the Philippines (named after Philip II), in Albania, and elsewhere. Under Philip II the Habsburg empire was split in two, with a Central European (Austria-based) half, and a Western European (Spanish) half. Unfortunately the Spanish wasted much of the vast amounts of money (in the form of silver) pouring into the Spanish treasury from Peru, mostly in fruitless wars trying to suppress Protestantism in Central and northern Europe, and by 1600 Dutch, French and English ships were intruding on Spanish imperial interests and establishing their own colonies. But for most of the 1500s, Spain was easily the world's premier military power.</span>
