the most dramatic recent developments in prehospital emergency care is the use of AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATOR

<h3>What is AUTOMATED EXTERNAL DEFIBRILLATOR?</h3>

The use of electricity to stop an arrhythmia and restore the heart's normal rhythm is known as defibrillation. An automated external defibrillator (AED) is a portable electronic device that can automatically diagnose the life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias ventricular fibrillation (VF) and pulseless ventricular tachycardia.

AEDs are created to be user-friendly for laypeople, with straightforward audio and visual directions, and the use of AEDs is covered in many first aid, certified first responder, and basic life support (BLS) level cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training. Frank Pantridge created the portable defibrillator in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in the middle of the 1960s, and the Cardiac Resuscitation Company created the first automatic defibrillator for use in public in the late

A nurse is teaching about a new prescription for infliximab to a client who has rheumatoid arthritis. Which of the following inf

Phoenix [80]

Answer: Opcion A. "You will receive a Mantoux test before the initial medication dose"

Explanation: The INFLIXIMAB is one of the medications used for treating Rheumatoid arthritis, among other inflammatory diseases as psoriasic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, Crohn's disease. It is used when the regular treatment has not worked. It helps to reduce pain and joint inflammation.

The mechanism of action of the INFLIXIMAB is to reduce a substance called TNFα (Tumor Necrosis Factor α) responsible for the inflammatory response that helps the body against an antigen. Because this medication reduces this body defense, it is important for the health providers to know in advance if there is a condition or disease in the immune system, cancer, or something that <em>per se</em>, could predispose to infections.

The Mantoux test is a tuberculin skin test that is used to know if a person has an infection with <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis, </em>the bacteria responsible of causing Tuberculosis. In the test, a tuberculin protein called PPD is used to be injected into the skin, specifically in the forearm. If the person is infected with the bacteria, it is expected that between 48 and 72 hours, the health professional would see an induration in the site of injection.

If someone has a positive tuberculin test, then it would not be possible to administer INFLIXIMAB.

Opcion B. Incorrect. There is no description of diarrhea as an adverse event for using this medication. The adverse effects could be headache, stomach ache, cough or skin allergy. Also, for the suppression of part of the immune system, it is recommended to be aware of symptoms of infection as fever, sweats, muscle pain.

Opcion C. Incorrect. The usual dose of INFLIXIMAB in the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis for adults is, an inicial dose, then a second dose 2 weeks later; then, a third dose 4 weeks later, and finally one dose every 8 weeks.

Opcion D. Incorrect. The intranasal influenza vaccine is a "live attenuated" vaccine. If it is administered in a person using INFLIXIMAB, he/she could develop a severe infection by <em>Influenza</em>.

A natural exposure to an infectious agent leads to.

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

– Natural exposure to infectious agent stimulates your own B cells to produce antigen-specific antibodies – Artificial immunization (vaccination) with key antigens or epitopes from an infectious agent does the same thing – Active immunization results in immunologic memory (more vigorous response next time)

Pour 67 mL of juice followed by 29 mL of juice into a 100mL graduated cylinder what's the percent strength

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Question Completion:

Pour 67 mL of Juice B followed by 29 mL of Juice A into the 100 mL graduated cylinder. What is the percent strength of each juice?

Answer:

The

percent strength of Juice B = 70%.

The percent strength of Juice A = 30%.

Explanation:

a) Data and Explanation:

Juice B = 67 mL

Juice A = 29 mL

Graduated Cylinder capacity = 100 mL

Total juice of B and A = 96 mL

The percent strength of Juice B = 70% (67/96)

The percent strength of Juice A = 30% (29/96)

b) The percent strength is the computation of how much of Juice A substance is dissolved into a specific amount of Juice B liquid. The percent strength establishes the part-to-whole relationships. A percent is a part of the 100 total parts. The 100 total parts in this case = 96 (67 + 29). Therefore, the part of Juice A in the total parts = 29/96 * 100 = 30% , while the part of Juice B in the total parts = 67/96 * 100 = 70%. Knowing the percent strength of each liquid helps to determine the content of each juice.
