The blood pressure adjusts  to the<span> heart's needs </span><span>and these </span><span>depend on </span>what<span> the person is doing</span><span>.  So it </span>naturally goes up and down all the time.

The blood pressure of the patient in the emergency department is: 82/40. 82/40 is not a normal blood pressure.<span> O</span>ptimum blood pressure for the patient should be 120/80. So, I should <span>give the patient some medication to treat his low blood pressure. I could use the drug midodrine (Orvaten) , for example, to raise my patient's blood pressure. This drug restricts the ability of the blood vessels to expand and by doing so it raises the blood pressure.</span>

Does an overweight person usually have more fat cells than an underweight person ?
Shtirlitz [24]
<span>The difference between obese people and thin people isn't the number of fat cells; it's the size of them. You don't make more fat cells the fatter you get; you have the same number of fat cells you had as an adolescent. The only difference is that the fat globules within each cell increase as you store more fat. By the way, muscles work the same way; you don't make more muscle cells; the muscle cells get larger.</span>

Answer:

The answer is at the bottom!!

Explanation:

Push straight down at least 2 inches and at a rate of at least 100 compressions per minute. When giving CPR to an adult, you should give sets of 30 compressions and 2 breaths. When giving CPR you should switch with another rescuer about every 2 minutes if possible to avoid fatigue.

Hope this helps!!
