For the patient with breathing problem, first aid can be performed

Firstly Check the person's airway, breathing, and pulse. If necessary, begin CPR.

Loosen any tight clothing.

Help the person use any prescribed medicine (such as an asthma inhaler or home oxygen).

Continue to monitor the person's breathing and pulse until medical help arrives. DO NOT assume that the person's condition is improving if you can no longer hear abnormal breath sounds, such as wheezing.

If there are open wounds in the neck or chest, they must be closed immediately, especially if air bubbles appear in the wound. Bandage such wounds at once.

A "sucking" chest wound allows air to enter the person's chest cavity with each breath. This can cause a collapsed lung. Bandage the wound with plastic wrap, a plastic bag, or gauze pads covered with petroleum jelly, sealing it on three sides, leaving one side unsealed. This creates a valve to prevent air from entering the chest through the wound, while allowing trapped air to escape from the chest through the unsealed side.

Mary is 14 years old. Her resting heart rate 70 beats per minute. Calculate 50% of Mary maximum heart rate to fine her target he
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Mary's target heart rate  is 103 beats per minute (bpm).

Explanation:

The maximum heart rate (MHR) is the rate at which the human heart of a given person reaches the highest demands. At rest, the heart rate is about 60 to 80 beats per minute.

MHR = 220 - age

So, for Mary: MHR = 220 - 14 = 206 beats per minute (bpm)

Now we can calculate Mary's target heart rate:

Target heart rate = MHR * 50% = 206 * 0.5 = 103  beats per minute (bpm)

Hope this helped!

This is an example of bargaining. Bargaining, during the death and dying, occurs when a deathly sick person wants to do one more thing before they die. They feel as if they want to accomplish something before they pass. For example, if a child has cancer and would want to see Lebron James before they die, that would be bargaining.

During which one of the following exercise intensity levels would you still be able to sing? A. Light B. Moderate C. Vigorous D.
Levart [38]

During low exercise intensity levels you would still be able to sing. Correct answer: A Low-intensity exercise is exercise that gets you to about 40 to 50 percent of your MHR. Examples include a casual walk, a stretch session, a beginners' yoga class or tai chi... Low-intensity exercises can easily become moderate-intensity exercises by upping your pace. However while performing  moderate activity you can talk, but you can't sing.
