Why do surgical incisions need to be made parallel to collagen fibers?

Medicine
1 answer:
mamaluj [8]3 years ago

Answer:

Surgical incisions that are made parallel to cleavage lines heal faster and with less scarring than those made perpendicular. Parallel incisions disrupt collagen fibers less and require less scar tissue (cells that aid in healing) to close up a wound.

If 100 mg drug is administered and has a half life of 6 hours, the percentage of the drug that will be in the system is 18 hours
atroni [7]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation as the question seems incomplete but the explanation should help.

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial dosage of drug = 100mg

Halflife of drug = 6hours

After 18 hours, the percentage of drug that will be in the system should be :

Half-life is the time taken for a material to reduce to half of it's initial size.

Since half life = 6 hours

After 6 hours ; amount left = 100/2 = 50 mg

After 12 hours ; amount left = 50/2 = 25mg

After 18 hours ; amount left = 25/2 = 12.5mg

Hence, after 18 hours percentage left in system :

(Amount left / total initial amount) × 100%

(12.5 / 100) × 100%

0.125 × 100%

= 12.5%

an emergency department nurse is interviewing a client who is presenting with signs of an ischemic stroke that began 2 hours ago
steposvetlana [31]

An emergency room nurse is speaking with a patient who is exhibiting symptoms of an ischemic stroke that started two hours ago. The client mentions having had a cholecystectomy six weeks prior and using labetalol, digoxin, and warfarin. What element puts the patient's thrombolytic therapy at risk?

What is ischemic stroke?

An ischemic stroke is the loss of brain tissue (cerebral infarction) brought on by insufficient oxygen and blood flow to the brain as a result of an arterial blockage. An artery leading to the brain can get blocked, frequently by a blood clot or a fatty buildup brought on by atherosclerosis, leading to an ischemic stroke.

In patients with ischemic stroke, thrombolytic therapy must be started within three hours. If the patient underwent surgery within the last 14 days, she is not qualified for thrombolytic therapy. Labetalol and digoxin do not preclude thrombolytic treatment.
