Jaime Carrera, a Hispanic man in his late 20s, is brought to Inner City Health Care, an urgent care center, by coworkers when he

injures his head in an accident at a construction site where he is working. His head is bleeding profusely. As Jaime's coworkers watch the health care team implement Standard Precautions for infection control, one of them, his own shirt and hands covered with Jaime's blood, pulls the medical assistant aside and whispers frantically, "What are you doing? Does he have AIDS?" What is the best therapeutic response of the medical assistant?

Answer

The best therapeutic response of the medical assistant will be to explain to Jaime’s coworker that it is a procedure applied to prevent the spread of communicable diseases.

Explanation

Standard precautions are applied to protect<u> individuals handling patients against possible transmission and outbreak of communicable infections. </u>These procedures are vital because they help to prevent spread of blood related infections such as hepatitis, HIV/AIDS, Ebola, TB, and Hantavirus. These infections could be transferred through a touch, sexual intercourse, oral transmission and droplets.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

This is Doppler ankle arm  brachial index

Explanation:

This is the appropriate test for this woman because of  difficulties experienced with her mobility.

The pressure is measured with the Doppler Ultrasound blood flow detector and with Sphygmomanometer cuff.

The comparison is  an indicator of her symptoms causes which may be due  to obstruction or narrowing of the arteries in her legs. The conclusion from these will  form the basis for her diagnosis for possible peripheral arterial diseases.

Discuss the power of medical authority medical sociology
xz_007 [3.2K]

Over the past several decades medical sociology has become a major subdiscipline of sociology, at the same time assuming an increasingly conspicuous role in health care disciplines such as public health, health care management, nursing, and clinical medicine. The name medical sociology garners immediate recognition and legitimacy and, thus, continues to be widely used—for instance, to designate the Medical Sociology Section of the American Sociological Association—even though most scholars in the area concede that the term is narrow and misleading. Many courses and texts, rather than using the term "sociology of medicine," refer instead to the sociology of health, health and health care, health and illness, health and medicine, or health and healing. The study of medicine is only part of the sociological study of health and health care, a broad field ranging from (1) social epidemiology, the study of socioeconomic, demographic, and behavioral factors in the etiology of disease and mortality; to (2) studies of the development and organizational dynamics of health occupations and professions, hospitals, health maintenance and long-term care organizations, including interorganizational relationships as well as interpersonal behavior, for example, between physician and patient; to (3) the reactions of societies to illness, including cultural meanings and normative expectations and, reciprocally, the reactions of individuals in interpreting, negotiating, managing, and socially constructing illness experience; to (4) the social policies, social movements, politics, and economic conditions that shape and are shaped by health and disease within single countries, as well as in a comparative, international context.
