Answer:
D. WBC count
Explanation:
First, let's define symptom and sign.
A <u>symptom</u> is some sort of evidence that could suggest a disease or disorder, but it must be observed and noticed by the patient. Basically, it's what the patient feels.
So, a headache, pain, and nausea are all symptoms.
A <u>sign </u>is evidence that someone else observes or collects. So, a family member or doctor sees signs.
Therefore, temperature, white blood cell count, and pulse are all signs.
The question asks us which is a sign, not a symptom. Therefore, the best choice is D. WBC count

Answer:
The answer to the statement: At rest, most of the body´s blood supply resides in the pulmonary loop, would be, B: False.
Explanation:
The circulatory system never stops working. Pumping of blood, transportation of oxygen, nutrients and water to and from tissues is a process that does not end, even during sleep. The only moment when this process does not happen, is in death. However, a good question is, where does the blood go, or stay, when the body is not active, like for example, during sleep. And the answer is that most of it will rest on the systemic veins and venules and will slowly circulate back to the heart, but at a much lower rate than when the body activates itself. However, what is not true is that blood will reside mostly in the pulmonary loop, because this loop does not have the capacity to store that much blood.
Answer: Not totally certain if you have any multiple choice answers or anything but here's a general idea of what I would write in response.
Explanation: First step is always going to be asking them if they're okay, the question says they're unresponsive so you want to access the situation. If they are spasming and signs lead to them having a seizure your going to immediately call for an ambulance, don't try to restrain them unless they are potentially going to hurt themselves ie. falling off of something or hitting something dangerous nearby. Restraining them can potentially damage their nerves and muscles more than just letting them flail.
If they don't seem to be having any signs of a seizure then you want to check if they're breathing. If they aren't you need to start performing cpr. Have someone nearby call an ambulance or call 911 and ask for walk-through steps if you aren't certified, that way you know what your doing and you can have that support you if they try to sue you (which won't be a problem because of the good samaritan law anyways) You want to get them laying on their back, tilt their head and make sure nothings restricting their air flow. Then your going to do a couple breaths, if they don't start breathing you'll begin compressions. Compressions, breath, compressions breath. I reccommend looking up appropriate compression techniques for different age people and how to correctly administer if you aren't already aware since I don't want to write a whole article here- I hope this helped!
