Answer:
congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Explanation:
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, also known as congenital adrenal hyperplasia, is a genetic disorder characterized by disorders in the functioning of the adrenal glands. The adrenal or adrenal glands are two glands that are located above the kidneys and produce important hormones for the body, such as cortisol and aldosterone.
Due to a change in the enzymes necessary for the adrenal glands to function, the person with this syndrome does not produce the adrenal hormones in the proper amount to the body. The result may be several different anomalies in the body, but one of the most prominent is the excessive production of androgen, resulting in external genitals that are partially or completely male in appearance.
Blood alcohol content (BAC) is a measure of the amount of alcohol that is present the blood.
A heavier person will have a lower blood alcohol level due to a greater amount of water in their body. The more a person weigh, the more water he/she tends to have in his/her body. The water has a diluting effect on the alcohol so the BAC will be lower in comparison with person who is slimmer and has less water in the body.
Answer:
The best answer to the question: Which finding would first indicate that naloxone administration has been effective? Would be: An increase in respiratory rate from 8 to 12 rpm.
Explanation:
Narcotic drugs, especially heroine in large amounts (overdose) have the opposite effect to what they are usually meant for, which is excitatory. In overdoses heroine and other narcotid drugs will cause a CNS depression and therefore most body functions will be severely affected, as it is seen from the blood pressure and heart rate of this patient, as well as his/her respiratory rate. But most worrying of all is that heroine, as a depressant, can lead a patient to comatose states, and even total respiratory failure. Naloxone, the medication designed to revert the effects of several narcotic drugs, such as heroine, will first be seen in action with the increase in respiratory rate, as the depressive effects start to decrease. Other functions such as heart rate, blood pressure and levels of conciousness will start picking back up as the body gets rid of the substance. But Naloxone will first revert the depression on the respiratory centers in the brain.
