Feel free to ask my mum was one before.
Answer:
ECG paper is a grid where time is measured along the horizontal axis.
Each small square is 1 mm in length and represents 0.04 seconds.
Each larger square is 5 mm in length and represents 0.2 seconds.
Voltage is measured along the vertical axis.
10 mm is equal to 1mV in voltage.
The diagram below illustrates the configuration of ECG graph paper and where to measure the components of the ECG wave form
Heart rate can be easily calculated from the ECG strip:
When the rhythm is regular, the heart rate is 300 divided by the number of large squares between the QRS complexes.
For example, if there are 4 large squares between regular QRS complexes, the heart rate is 75 (300/4=75).
The second method can be used with an irregular rhythm to estimate the rate. Count the number of R waves in a 6 second strip and multiply by 10.
For example, if there are 7 R waves in a 6 second strip, the heart rate is 70 (7x10=70).
Answer:
Sepsis
Explanation:
Because sepsis is the body's extreme response to an infection. It is a life-threatening medical emergency. Sepsis happens when an infection you already have triggered a chain reaction throughout your body. Infections that lead to sepsis most often start in the lung, urinary tract, skin, or gastrointestinal tract. Bowel Perforation can cause the abdomen to spill out its contents thus causing an infection and triggering all the symptoms this 30 y/o woman has.
Answer:
The correct answer is: Week 35
Explanation:
Pregnancy, also called gestation, refers to the period during which a fetus or more than one fetus develops inside the womb of a female. Pregnancy can be divided into three trimesters.
During the third trimester of the pregnancy, in week 35, the fetus turns in the downward position, with the head facing towards the cervix and vagina.
Adults—0.1 milligram (mg) two times a day, taken in the morning and at bedtime. Your doctor may adjust your dose as needed. The usual dose is 0.2 mg to 0.6 mg per day, divided and given two times a day.
