The client with chronic kidney disease and congestive heart failure is weak and dyspneic. Lab work reveals a hemaglobin of 6.5 g

/dL (65 g/L). Which type of blood product will the provider order?

Answer:

packed RBC

Explanation:

  • Packed red blood cells consist of red blood cells that are separated from the rest of the blood components and are used for transfusion.
  • When the hemoglobin of a person falls below 70–80 g/L (7–8 g/dL), then the person is usually transfused with packed RBC.
  • In the given situation, the client has chronic kidney disease and congestive heart failure and as a result of this, the hemoglobin levels of the client has fallen down 6.5 g/dL (65 g/L) and thus, there is an immediate need for the provider to perform a transfusion of packed RBC of appropriate blood type as RBCs are a carrier of hemoglobin in the body.

Es una de las características de la ciencia en la cual se realizan los juicios de valor, atiende a los hechos y a la lógica. *
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

razonamiento

Explanation:

La ciencia se define como una agrupación de conocimientos racionales, lógicos, comprobables y sistemáticos los cuales son obtenidos mediante el proceso de observación/experimentación y posterior razonamiento. Los conocimentos científicos permiten deducir principios y leyes que son utilizados para predecir fenómenos del mundo natural. Una característica clave de la ciencia es el uso del razonamiento lógico mediante el cual aplica el método científico para generar dichos principios y leyes. El razonamiento lógico es un proceso mental que comienza con una premisa y finaliza con una conclusión comprobable que puede determinarse como verdadera o falsa.

If an object measures 29,000 pm, how long is it in mm?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

= 2.9 × 10^-5 mm

Explanation:

from the conversion;

1 pm = 1 × 10^-9 mm

Therefore;

29,000 pm is equivalent to;

= 29,000 pm× 1 × 10^-9

<u>= 2.9 × 10^-5 mm</u>

Solid, crystal-like substances that are formed in the kidneys due to not drinking enough water or high levels of protein, sodium
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

The correct answer is - stones.

Explanation:

Kidney stones are medically called renal calculi or urolithiasis. These are normally hard and very small minerals and salts made stones that deposites inside your kidneys. Kidney stones can be formed due to several reasons such as an unhealthy diet with higher salt, soda, and sugar constituents, high dose of minerals, dehydration, or less drinking water

To decrease the risk of forming kidney stones or if one is experiencing kidney stone should drink enough water which helps to remove formed or forming deposits of minerals.

Which materials undergo radioactive decay? Check all that apply.
stich3 [128]
Radioactive decay (also known as nuclear decay, radioactivity or nuclear radiation) is the process by which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy (in terms of mass in its rest frame) by emitting radiation, such as an alpha particle, beta particle with neutrino or only a neutrino in the case of electron capture, or a gamma ray or electron in the case of internal conversion. A material containing such unstable nuclei is considered radioactive. Certain highly excited short-lived nuclear states can decay through neutron emission, or more rarely, proton emission.

Radioactive decay is a stochastic (i.e. random) process at the level of single atoms. According to quantum theory, it is impossible to predict when a particular atom will decay,[1][2][3] regardless of how long the atom has existed. However, for a collection of atoms, the collection's expected decay rate is characterized in terms of their measured decay constants or half-lives. This is the basis of radiometric dating. The half-lives of radioactive atoms have no known upper limit, spanning a time range of over 55 orders of magnitude, from nearly instantaneous to far longer than the age of the universe.

A radioactive nucleus with zero spin can have no defined orientation, and hence emits the total momentum of its decay products isotropically (all directions and without bias). If there are multiple particles produced during a single decay, as in beta decay, their relativeangular distribution, or spin directions may not be isotropic. Decay products from a nucleus with spin may be distributed non-isotropically with respect to that spin direction, either because of an external influence such as an electromagnetic field, or because the nucleus was produced in a dynamic process that constrained the direction of its spin. Such a parent process could be a previous decay, or a nuclear reaction.[4][5][6][note 1]

The decaying nucleus is called the parent radionuclide (or parent radioisotope[note 2]), and the process produces at least one daughter nuclide. Except for gamma decay or internal conversion from a nuclear excited state, the decay is a nuclear transmutation resulting in a daughter containing a different number of protons or neutrons (or both). When the number of protons changes, an atom of a different chemical element is created.

The first decay processes to be discovered were alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay. Alpha decay occurs when the nucleus ejects an alpha particle (helium nucleus). This is the most common process of emitting nucleons, but highly excited nuclei can eject single nucleons, or in the case of cluster decay, specific light nuclei of other elements. Beta decay occurs in two ways: (i) beta-minus decay, when the nucleus emits an electron and an antineutrino in a process that changes a neutron to a proton, or (ii) beta-plus decay, when the nucleus emits a positron and a neutrino in a process that changes a proton to a neutron. Highly excited neutron-rich nuclei, formed as the product of other types of decay, occasionally lose energy by way of neutron emission, resulting in a change from one isotope to another of the same element. The nucleus may capture an orbiting electron, causing a proton to convert into a neutron in a process called electron capture. All of these processes result in a well-defined nuclear transmutation.
