The most common airway obstruction is the tongue. It blocks the upper airway causing asphyxiation in many patients who are comatose or have suffered cardiopulmonary arrest. An airway obstruction is considered to be life-threatening and should get immediate medical attention. The severity of the obstruction varies on a case to case basis and a people should be aware how to properly perform first aid to avoid further complications. If a person has not been able to breathe a possible tracheotomy will be performed by the rescuer as a quick response. This is to enable the passage of air back to the brain.

Answer:

I tell her that excessive use eventually leads to diseases and tumors.

Explanation:

Excessive sun tanning for years can lead to skin cancer and skin tumors. The salon's claim is that if you don't use it too much then it is safe. Since excessive tanning over time destroys the skin cells, she can eventually die an early death of soaking up UV rays.

The nurse should suspect that the client has suddenly discontinued taking Diazepam (Valium).

What is Diazepam (Valium)?

Diazepam is used to treat anxiety, alcohol withdrawal, and seizures.
It is also used to relieve muscle spasms and to provide sedation before medical procedures.
This medication works by calming the brain and nerves.
Diazepam belongs to a class of drugs known as benzodiazepines.

Read the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist before you start taking diazepam and each time you get a refill.
If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Take this medication by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor.
If you are using the liquid form of this medication, carefully measure the dose using a special measuring device/spoon.
Do not use a household spoon because you may not get the correct dose.

How can I make good budget for healthy foods? How can I be good habit with healthy foods?

RSB [31]

Invest in a healthy cookbook, you can try new dishes and find some that you like. Research plants that grow well in your climate and plant some fruits/veggies. Buy fresh ingredients. Make a list of healthy foods that you enjoy. Try cooking things different ways because anything can taste good if cooked nicely. (put oil in a pan and cook brussel sprouts until they are a little soft, season with salt and pepper.) Shop at Trader Joe's and Lucky's Market if possible. They have cheap and healthy products. I strongly recommend Lucky Market.

blondinia [14]

A nurse is using shareware while using a trial copy of a software program.

Shareware is a software program that enables free access to users for a limited time to allow users to understand the software before buying it. It is also known as demoware or trial software. The idea behind this software is "try before you buy". The payment made for buying the software is usually donated to a non-profit organization.

Hospitals use computers and such software to keep medical records of the patient, about his admission and discharge, medical supply, diagnosis, and monitoring of the body functions and rhythms. Using software like shareware helps nurses and other medical professionals to understand the software system before adopting one.

While a nurse can understand the shareware trial program, she would be able to operate any other computer program and keep the patient record efficiently. She would be able to update and eliminate the records considered unnecessarily by the doctors.
