Upon examination & assessment, a patient with collapsed jugular veins results in a clinical diagnosis of Hemothorax.
How is collapsed JVP related to hemothorax?
- Hemothorax is the accumulation of blood between the visceral and parietal pleurae (pleural space).
- Respiratory discomfort and tachypnea are common clinical findings in such individuals.
- This exercise demonstrates hemothorax evaluation and treatment and discusses the role of the interprofessional team in improving care for individuals with this disease.
A frequent consequence of acute thoracic injuries is hemothorax.
- It is a blood clot in the pleural space, which can be seen between the visceral and parietal pleura.
- The most common mechanism of trauma is a blunt or penetrating injury to intrathoracic or extrathoracic tissues that leads to thoracic haemorrhage.
- Bleeding can occur in the chest wall, intercostal or internal mammary arteries, major vessels, mediastinum, myocardium, lung parenchyma, diaphragm, or belly.
- Although CT scanning is the preferred method of assessing intrathoracic injuries, it may not be practicable in individuals with unstable trauma.
- The pulmonary windows are now included in the Extended-Focused Assessment with Sonography in Trauma (eFAST) technique.

The given statement was False: A hookworm infestation frequently leads to anemia.
what is entamoeba histolytica ?
The parasitic anaerobic amoebozoan Entamoeba histolytica belongs to the genus Entamoeba. E. histolytica, which mostly infects humans and other primates and causes amoebiasis, is thought to infect between 35 and 50 million individuals globally. It is believed that E. histolytica infections cause more than 55,000 fatalities annually. Prior to the discovery that at least 90% of these illnesses were caused by a second species, E. dispar, it was believed that 10% of the world's population was affected. Although animals like dogs and cats can briefly contract the disease, it is not believed that they significantly contribute to its spread.
Histolysis literally translates to "dissolution and disintegration of biological tissues."
