Answer: Antibodies are proteins that are found in the body on the surface of red blood cells and in the blood plasma ,they are very sensitive to foreign bodies and bad viruses and bacteria,when they notice the presence of anything that poses harm or a threat to the body system,they track it down and fight/destroy it.

Antibodies also play crucial role in hemostasis(stoppage of bleeding) in the sense that when the body is wounded or when someone gets a cut antibodies that are found in the plasma and some substances found in the platelets are released to play a role in sending signal to the blood clotting factors in the blood to be released to arrest the bleeding and prevent the person from bleeding out their entire blood.

A client with cancer is diagnosed with typhitis. which emergency intervention would the nurse perform?
Gnesinka [82]
Typhitis, also called neutropenic enterocolitis, is an infection that often develops in cancer patients who undergo chemotherapy. In many cases, surgical intervention is required.

Without surgical intervention, the patient would be transferred to an ICU (Intensive Care Unit) for monitoring, and the nurse would perform some or all of these emergency actions:
1. Bowel rest and nasogastric suction,
2. Serial abdominal examinations,
3. Providing intravenous fluids, blood, and platelet transfusions when needed,
4. Using antibiotics to fight the infection, and obtaining cultures to determine if the antibiotic is working,
5. Not administering medication that could worsen the situation.
