Answer:
4. Prevents an infection called ophthalmia neonatorum from occurring after delivery in a newborn born to a woman with an untreated gonococcal infection.
Explanation:
Ophthalmia Neonatorum is an eye infection that affects newborns within the first 30 days after birth. It is also known as “conjunctivitis of the newborn) and is caused by contact of the newborn’s eyes with the birth canal of a mother who has an untreated sexually-transmitted infection like Gonnorrhea.
The newborn is usually treated with an erythromycin eye ointment instilled onto the eyes.
Answer:
Yes, both Coumadin and Heparin can be given at the same time.
Explanation:
Both Coumadin and Heparin can be given at the same time. Heparin is is a blood thinner (anti-coagulant) used to prevent and treat blood clots.The patient has been diagnosed with Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) which is the formation of blood clot in a vein located deep in the body (usually the lower thigh or leg). The heparin drip she is being administered will help treat the blood clot
Coumadin is also an anticoagualnt and is used for treating blood clotts. However, it takes days (about 3-4) before the treatment starts to work. It stops the synthesis of the four vitamin K–dependent clotting factors in the liver (factors II, VII, IX, X).
Both Heparin and Coumadin are overlapped for at least five days as they work differently. The Heparin is discontinued after anticoagulation occurs and the client starts to be treated with coumadin.
I’d maybe check if there are any alternative meds he can be given, for the depression or AIDS. Or if he can be given other things that may help with symptoms or a more natural approach
