I found a mouse in my sister's room today, and its 37 degrees outside and windy. The mouse was bitten by my cat, not terribly, b

ut its definitely still in shock, or so it has been for three hours. I've been keeping it in a small plastic container, wrapped up in tissues and a dish cloth. I have a heating pad wrapped around the container and a small pile of cooked rice next to the mouse. What should I do? I can't bring myself to put it out of its misery by smashing it with a rock or something. Do you think there's a chance it will survive? Should I release it now? It doesn't move at all but it is breathing, I see the chest moving. Advice? Tips?

Answer:

DO NOT KILL OR PUT DOWN the poor little guy. I have faced a similar situation where my family found a week, injured opossum. The mouse you found still has a life to live, and you should honor that. Take him/her to a vet to see what you can do for him/her. I'm sure you can find a medication to treat the bites. Then, also try looking for a wildlife rescue center. They specialize in these areas and can provide medical treatment as well as a place for the little one to live. Also, keep the mouse inside and find a space to let him/her rest, such as a bathtub or large box. I wish you and your mouse luck!

Which possible outcome would be a major disadvantage of any pain relief method that also affects awareness of the mother
Reptile [31]

The possible outcome would be a major disadvantage of any pain relief method that also affects awareness of the mother is that the mother may have difficulty working effectively with contractions.

Epidural :

The epidural is one of the most efficient ways to relieve pain during childbirth and delivery, and it has little side effects  on both the mother and the newborn. During lengthy surgical operations, such as a C-section delivery, or while recovering from specific treatments, an epidural can offer continuous pain relief.

Some of the disadvantage of using pain relief :

  • The blood pressure may drop suddenly after receiving an epidural.
  • Shivering, fever, or itching are a few adverse symptoms that some women report.
  • One can experience nausea or vertigo after having the epidural removed, along with back pain and soreness where the needle was inserted.
  • With an epidural, some women report having more trouble giving birth. The likelihood of requiring interventions like forceps, drugs, or a C-section may rise significantly.

In small children or infants, a foreign body obstruction of the airway should be suspected if there is a sudden onset of:_____.
mario62 [17]

In small children or infants, a foreign body obstruction of the airway should be suspected if there is a sudden onset of <u>respiratory distress</u>

Signs of FBAO include a sudden onset of respiratory distress with coughing, gagging, stridor, or wheezing.

<h3>What is Foreign body airway obstruction(FBAO)?</h3>

Foreign object airway obstruction: Partial or complete obstruction of the airway to the lungs by a foreign object (food, beads, toys, etc.). Shortness of breath episodes can occur suddenly with a  cough. Restlessness is common in the early stages of airway obstruction. Symptoms of shortness of breath include difficult and ineffective breathing (apnea) until the patient stops breathing. Loss of consciousness occurs if the obstruction is not removed.

Severe or complete foreign-body airway obstruction can kill the victim in minutes if he doesn't get appropriate treatment. The primary technique to clear an obstruction in a conscious adult is administration of abdominal thrusts—the Heimlich maneuver.

Several studies have found that in the United States, their is a rising trend of obesity for people between the ages of 2 and 19
ale4655 [162]

I DID NOT COPY THIS. THIS IS ALL ORIGINAL: THIS TOOK 1/2 an hour to write. Hope this helps

Buried in recent headlines is the sobering fact that obesity is still on the rise in the United States. The latest federal data show that nearly 40 percent of American adults were obese in 2015–16, up from 34 percent in 2007–08. The prevalence of severe obesity also went up during the same period, from 5.7 percent to 7.7 percent. In 1985, no state had an obesity rate higher than 15 percent. In 2016, five states had rates over 35 percent.

Obesity is a grave public health threat, more serious even than the opioid epidemic. It is linked to chronic diseases including type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Obesity accounts for 18 percent of deaths among Americans ages 40 to 85, according to a 2013 study challenging the prevailing wisdom among scientists, which had placed the rate at around 5 percent. This means obesity is comparable to cigarette smoking as a public health hazard; smoking kills one of five Americans and is the leading preventable cause of death in the United States.

The obesity crisis may be less dramatic than the opioid epidemic now gripping the nation, but it is just as deadly. Opioids accounted for around two-thirds of the 64,000 deaths related to drug overdose in 2016. Excess body weight leading to cancer causes about 7 percent of cancer-related deaths, or 40,000 deaths each year. This number doesn’t include deaths from the many other medical conditions associated with obesity. Obese people are between 1.5 to 2.5 times more likely to die of heart disease than people with normal body mass indices (BMIs).

There are also substantial economic losses associated with obesity. The medical costs of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment are estimated at $147 billion in 2008 dollars. Reduced economic productivity adds to these losses.  

Because rising obesity is attributed to an increase in caloric intake and a reduction in physical activity, many proposed solutions emphasize food and exercise. While such remedies may help in individual cases, policy solutions are almost certainly required to fight this alarming epidemic.    

Despite the thriving U.S. weight-loss market (worth $66 billion in 2017), there is no evidence that diet-related programs will curb obesity. Numerous studies indicate that diets are not effective in controlling or reversing weight gain. In fact, 50 percent of dieters weighed more than 11 pounds over their starting weight five years after their diet, according to one study.

A comprehensive discussion of the policy solutions to obesity is beyond the scope of this piece, and the jury is still out on which policies — targeting sugar consumption through taxes on sugary food and beverages, regulating nutrition labels to make them more effective in informing consumers, and limiting the advertising and marketing of unhealthy food, particularly to children — might curb the epidemic.

Taxing potentially harmful food products has shown some promise, though it is a politically fraught approach. A small number of American cities, including Philadelphia, Boulder, Colo., and Berkeley, Calif., have begun taxing sugar-sweetened beverages. Early results show that an excise tax on sugary drinks led to a 21 percent drop in their consumption in Berkeley.

Berkeley is hardly the epicenter of the obesity problem in the U.S., as the map shows, but the intervention’s success offers hope for the rest of the country. A peer-reviewed modeling study based on the Berkeley experience estimated that if a national sugar-sweetened beverages tax were implemented, it would result in lower national consumption of these drinks and reduced adult and child BMIs. Whether such a policy could be replicated nationally remains uncertain.2

When it comes to nutrition labels, there’s almost no evidence that these have an effect on consumers’ dietary intake, body weight, and overall health.
