Answer:

b. invert the IV bag and squeeze the drip chamber.

Explanation:

The drip chamber is the place where we can see the fluid that is dripping into the tubing from the IV bag. It is at the drip chamber that the speed of the IV set up is measured by counting the number of drops per minute. It is expected that the drip chamber is always half full because if it is too full, it is impossible to count the drops. However, in a case where the drip chamber is too full, the EMT must invert the IV bag and squeeze the drip chamber to allow some of the liquid out, while not allowing any flow from the IV bag into the drip chamber.

Give some example of how the senses can help gather information about a patient’s condition.
Svet_ta [14]
Well your basic senses are going to be, taste, touch, olfaction (smell), visual perception (seeing), hearing...


Obviously your not going to taste a patients conditions. So moving on to touch. You can feel a bruise or a spot where they indicate pain to tell if their hurt or not. Now unless they aren’t very hygienic then you can’t really “smell” a persons condition. Visual perception you can see if they are in pain or bleeding or even dying by looking at the patient. Now for hearing you can listen to what their telling you. If their hurt their going to tell you exactly what’s wrong bc they obviously want help!

Good luck!! Hope this helped!
