Matthew runs track at school and is practicing for the 10,000 meter event. It's been incredibly hot out lately, so he tries to r

un in the morning when it's cooler, but he overslept today and needed to get his run in after school. It was only 86 degrees out, but the humidity was 60%. He usually takes some Dasani with him, but in a rush, he forgot it and all he has is a Mountain Dew. Matthew falls at mile 3 of his run with throbbing pain in his calves and shooting pains up his legs. His skin is flushed and moist. What heat-related illness does Matthew have? How should he treat it?

Answer:

Matthew is dehydrated. He must treat this by drinking liquids, such as water or an isotonic drink.

Explanation:

The physical exercise that Matthew is practicing, already promotes the loss of fluids from his body. When he decides to practice this exercise in a high temperature environment, the loss of fluids is even greater, requiring Matthew to replace these fluids if he does not want to be dehydrated. However, he did not take any fluids with him, which caused his body to lose excess fluids through sweat and cause uncomfortable symptoms such as the throbbing pain in his legs.

To treat this, Matthew must drink fluids constantly.

Why do people support solitary confinement?
drek231 [11]

Answer:

people support it because, if a certain person is in there then they might feel more safe. If someone is in solitary confinement then they have obviously done something horrible. And they deserve to be in there. And that person could do whatever he did again if he weren't in there. So with that being said people like to be at ease with the fact that all the maniacs are locked away.. securely.

Why is it important to ensure that your own personal attitudes or beliefs do not influence or obstruct the quality of care you o
scZoUnD [109]
It is very important to not let your personal attitude get in the way of your work. You are there to potentially save their life or at least help them, and you're not there to discuss politics or neighbors, etc. You will deal with people from all walks of life, and you cannot let your differing opinions get in the way of the work that needs to be done. You should never try to enforce your beliefs on anybody, especially people that are in your care or that you work with. You should just try your best to help and accept that we all have differing opinions. Hope this helps! :)

What advantages do you see of developing a portable device to detect the disease early?
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Some advantages of this device is that it could detect diseases that you (or a doctor) can't immediately feel or see, like cancer. It could also help people who don't like to go to doctor's offices, or people that live in remote areas without access to medical care.

Explanation:

The answer is self explanatory.
