Answer:

See if there are leaks in the system.

Explanation:

Lung resection may be defined as the surgical procedure of removal of lungs part whether fully or partially. This surgery is mainly performed in case of lung injury or tumors.

The respiration in these patients requires the water seal chamber. The chest tube is inserted for the proper respiration. If the bubbling is more, this means there is leakage in the system. The leakage leads to the excess formation of bubbles due to the release of more gases.

Thus, the correct  answer is option (c).

Answer:

Option C, See if there are leaks in the system

Explanation:

Water bubbling more than the expected value signifies leakage or defect in the water seal chamber during the late postoperative period. In case if the chest tube is clogged, there is a possibility of blocking or development of kink in the water seal chamber. In case of clogging or kink, the bubble will not be formed at all. In fact there will be no fluctuation in the tank

Malfunctioning of wall suction unit will not affect the water seal chamber, in fact it will affect the suction chamber . Hence only possibility of increased bubbling is leakage.

Hence, option C is correct

What effect on the body does a lack of insulin have?
ludmilkaskok [199]
Insulin is such a vital secretion of the pancreas in the human body that without it, our body would not function normally. It is responsible for breaking down the food we eat and converting it to energy and then storing that energy. Lack of insulin means that the pancreas are not producing insulin which leads to diabetes. That means that there is a concentration of glucose in the blood rather than being distributed to cells to carry out functions. This can lead to kidney failures,  nerve damaging stomach problems and problems in the eyes.
