What might cause brain attack ?

the nurse is caring for a client admitted with peritonitis. which finding in the medical record is most likely the cause

hammer [34]

The finding of bowel obstruction in the medical record is most likely the cause.

Intestinal motility is frequently reduced by peritonsillitis, and gas-filled intestinal distension results. It may result in sepsis, multiple organ failure syndromes, or a deadly intestinal blockage if untreated. Given that peritonitis can quickly progress to potentially deadly consequences including sepsis and septic shock, which result in a sharp drop in blood pressure, organ failure, and death, it's critical to have a prompt diagnosis and start receiving the right treatment.

Infection is what causes peritonitis. A hole in your GI (gastrointestinal) tract might allow bacteria to penetrate the lining of your stomach. If you have a burst appendix or a hole in your colon, this may occur. Tertiary peritonitis, an infection or dehiscence at the site of the operation, enterocutaneous fistula, abdominal compartment syndrome, and enteric insufficiency are all peritonitis complications.

When caring for a patient with a chemical burn to the eyes, the EMT-B should first: A) assess pupils every 5 minutes. B) cover b

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The asnwer is C) flush with water for 5 or more minutes.

Explanation:

When treating a patient with chemical burn in the eyes, the first thing to do is wash the eyes for 5 minutes or more. Once in the emergency department the patient must continue washing the eye and remove any chemical residue. It is coordinated with the application of natural tears and the obstruction of the affected eye. Be medicated analgesic, antibiotic, corticosteroid and cycloplegic drugs.

A taxi driver who is a serial killer kidnaps his passenger and force the passenger to play the game of death with him.

ella [17]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see now that there is a 50% chance of the taxi driver picking the poisonous pill each time. This seems like a high chance at first, but if you keep on doing it over and over again the probability is smaller and smaller that he will survive. The first time it is 50%, then 25%, then 12.5%, and it gets smaller and smaller. Therefore, there must be something else going on for this taxi driver to have such good luck.

We see that passenger is the one who picks it because if the taxi driver picked it, it would be rigged. However, there has to be a way that the passenger always dies. Therefore, it makes the most sense that the poison isn't actually in the pills, but in something else.

We see that each passenger had to swallow the pill with water. When they say that one of them is harmless and the other one is poisonous, they did not clarify that they were talking about the pills. They could have easily been talking about the glasses of water. And, the passenger does not pick which glass of water to drink, so it could easily be rigged so that they are drinking poisoned water.

Sherlock could have easily asked to swallow the pill with his own water, another drink, or to swallow it without any liquid.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!

Put the following events of the adaptive immune response in the order they occur.

LenKa [72]

Answer:

The immune response to infection, of whatever kind, is vital for human survival. At its core lies the cells, and enzymes, as well as chemical components, that will activate these responses, the innate, and the acquired immune response.

Although still under lots of study, and science finding new things in this complex system, the order of the steps in which the system is activated, roughly, is this:

1. C. You cut yourself and bacteria enter the wound.

2. F. A dendrite near the cut phagocytizes some bacteria and uses MHC proteins to present exogenous antigens from the destroyed bacteria on its surface

3. A. The antigen-presenting macrophage and some of the bacteria, enter the lymph and float down a lymph vessel to the lymph node, where T cells are awaiting to recognize it and act.

4. E. Helper T cells at the lymph node use their T cell receptors to bind the antigens on the surface of the dendrite and bacteria. This triggers the helper T cells to reproduce, differentiate and release cytokines and other elements that increase inflamation and activate other immune cells.

5. G. Also, B cells at the lymph node use their B cell receptors to bind to the antigens on the surface of the bacteria and dendrite. These B cells also bind to the cytokines being produced. This triggers the B cells to reproduce and start making antibodies. They also trigger cytotoxic T cells CD4 and CD8 differentiation and activation.

6. B. All the elements produced flow through the blood, activating other immune responses and migrate them towards the site of infection. Because of the inflammation, and thanks to the cytokines and protoinflammatory elements, more cells are activated and they can penetrate the inflammed tissue.

7. D. Through the actions of the antibodies, cytokines, chemicals, and different actions of the cells, phagocytes, and cytotoxic T cells are finally able to destroy the invading bacteria and kill all infected tissue as well, leaving behin scar tissue at the site of the wound, and both B and T cells activate their memory capacity, so that if a new infection by that microorganism happens again, the response will be much faster and efficient.

This is a very broad organization of the immune response.
