Answer: Monitoring for any change in color and edema at the injury site

Health education on self care of the colostomy

Fluid resuscitation (may also be considered medical care)

Patient diet should be monitored as patient should be on a liquid diet.

Explanation:

1) we are monitoring for any change in color at the site of injury, because of infection. If there is infection there is likely to be change in color of injury site.

Edema is a swelling, If there is a swelling at the injury site post operation, then it means something is wrong.

We then act because we don’t want sepsis to set in.

Fluid resuscitation because it is likely that patient becomes dehydrated post operation.

Also Patient’s diet is monitored because of the surgery we don’t want patient to be taking solid food so as to prevent an irritation of the gastrointestinal tract.

Yes, there is a variety of things you can do to wear down the enamel. A few of the biggest things are: Drinking Coffee or soda, eating acidic foods and not brushing your teeth. Sadly you are not able to grow back your enamel after if it fully gone so it's best to protect your enamel as much as possible.

how does your skeletal, muscular, circulatory, endocrine, and nervous systems work together to make you react to a burn
AlekseyPX
Im pretty sure this is how it works:
you burn yourself,
immediately, you jump back because obviously, it hurts
That part (the jump back) is your skeletal and muscular working together to move you away from the danger

This is called the fight or flight response.
This time, you took flight from the danger. hop this helped a bit, if not, i can edit and add more for ya :)
