Which of the following does NOT involve the hypothalamic-pituitary axis of hormone function regulation?

Medicine
1 answer:
konstantin123 [22]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(D). oxytocin.

Explanation:

The hypothalamic-pituitary axis can be defined a pathway that plays a central role in regulation of various endocrine glands. Hormones released from hypothalamus stimulates pituitary gland, which in turns secrete pituitary hormones to regulate release of hormones from other endocrine glands.  

Regulation of growth hormone (somatotropin), cortisol (adrenal hormone), prolactin, and T3 (thyroid hormone) is done by hypothalamic-pituitary axis.

Oxytocin is a peptide hormone, which is synthesized by hypothalamus and secreted by posterior pituitary gland. However, level of oxytocin is regulated by positive feedback in loop, in which hormone itself regulates its release and does not involves regulation by hypothalamic-pituitary axis.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

A nurse is monitoring the laboratory values of a client who is receiving heparin. Which of the following values should the nurse
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The best answer to the question: A nurse is monitoring the laboratory values of a client who is receiving heparin. Which of the following values should a nurse report to the provider? would be: D: aPTT of 50 seconds.

Explanation:

Unlike Warfarin and the low-molecular weight heparin, medically speaking, the one diagnostic test that is still being used as a measure of heparin´s therapeutic achievements in a patient with a coagulopathy, is the activated partial thromboplastin time aPTT. Although the measurement in seconds, will depend on the laboratory that is doing the measuring, and despite scientific evidence that points to the fact that aPTT is not the most accurate of laboratory measurements for a patient with heparin, it is still being used today and still is the leading laboratory test for these types of patients.

Andrew [12]

Answer:

The answer to the question would be: 20610-RT for the procedure of injection to the bursa, and J3301 x4 goes for the medication that was administered, Kenalog, and x4 because the total amount used was 40 mg, while the CPT code is good for 1 mg.

Explanation:

The CPT codes, better known as Current Procedural Terminology, is a list of numerical codes that allow doctors, hospitals and other healthcare facilities, to bill the insurance companies of patients, for the procedures and services rendered in order to treat, or cure, an illness. ICD-10 codes are also part of this billable codiing system as they provide numerical categories to the illnesses that a patient may have and for which the patient is receiving a specific treatment. In this case, the CPT codes given relate to: first, the specific place in the body where the patient was treated, and second, to select the materials, and especially the medication, that was used, and in what amount it was used, to treat the specific medical condition. This will be sent to the insurance company of the patient, for billing.
