Hello!

Hemoglobin is the protein which carries oxygen by binding to it. Hemoglobin is found in red blood cells. This protein is extremely important as it allows respiration to be carried out, and transports oxygen to the rest of our bodies.

Oxygen diffuses from the alveoli (in our lungs) through capillaries into the blood. From there, the hemoglobin in the blood will take the oxygen, and bring it to the other parts of the body which need it. This also allows continued diffusion into the capillaries.

Hope this helps!

A client is being discharged home after an open radical prostatectomy. Which statement indicates a need for further teaching?
Leona [35]

Answer:

4. "If I get constipated, I will use a suppository."

Explanation:

Radical prostatectomy is the surgery indicated to treat a patient with localized prostate cancer, that is, when the disease is confined within the prostate and within the limits of the prostate capsule. More than 70% of patients treated exclusively by radical surgery no longer suffer from the disease, and it is indicated only to treat prostate cancer and not recommended with prophylactic character, ie to prevent its onset. This type of surgery does not affect bowel function, so the statement "If I get a cold, I'll use a suppository." made by the patient shows that this patient needs more education about radial prostatectomy.
