The options of the question are :

"I will need to use backup contraception if I miss a pill."

"Irregular bleeding is an indication that I should stop using this drug."

"The mini-pill is safer than combination OCs and is just as effective."

"The progestin-only mini-pill will prevent me from ovulating."

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

When a patient is taking a progestin- only pill then it should be taken for at least 2 days in order for the backup.

Most of the women stop taking pills because of inconvenience cause due to irregular bleeding.

But the intake of oral pills should not be stopped and should be taken for avoiding the pregnancy.

The irregular bleeding is not an indication to stop taking medicine so it should be continued as such.

You are working with a patient who sustained a spinal cord injury resulting in paralysis of the legs. This person has:
meriva

Answer:

A patient with a spinal cord injury that resulted in paralysis of the legs has paraplegia (option c).

Explanation:

Paraplegia consists of paralysis of the lower extremities or legs due to injuries to the spinal cord, from the dorsal vertebrae. Other causes of paraplegia include tumors and malformations that affect the spinal cord.

<u>The spinal cord provides the nerves that allow the innervation of the limbs</u>. A spinal cord injury interrupts communication between the brain and the effector (motor) muscles as well as the sensory nerves in the affected limbs, producing paralysis. When it occurs in the legs is called paraplegia.

The other options are not correct because:

    a. Hemiplegia corresponds to paralysis of upper and lower limbs on one side only.

    b. Pseudoplegia is a paralysis that is due to mental disorders such as conversion disorder, without injury to the nervous system.

    d. Dysplegia is associated with motor disorders observed in children with varying degrees of dysfunction or cerebral paralysis.
