Why the antibodies in donated blood don't attack the recipient's blood cell
erica [24]
However, by the time a cross match is done, the level of antibody in the recipient's plasma is too low to cause agglutination, making this type of reaction difficult to prevent. Likewise, during the blood transfusion the level of antibody is too low to cause an acute transfusion reaction. As people with blood group AB have no antibodies, they can receive all blood groups without issues. People with blood group O can only receive RBCs of blood group O, because they carry both antibodies. ... Hence, blood group O can be received by all other groups, and is therefore the universal donor.

What is the effect on the patient of aging causes the kidney to lose some ability to concentrate urine? -Older people often need
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:  The number of available symptomatic treatments has markedly enhanced the care of patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Once thought to be “untreatable”, patients with ALS today clearly benefit from multidisciplinary care. The impact of such care on the disease course, including rate of progression and mortality, has surpassed the treatment effects commonly sought in clinical drug trials. Unfortunately, there are few randomized controlled trials of medications or interventions addressing symptom management which has resulted in the need for physicians to base their selection of specific therapies upon personal experience and anecdotal reports (1 Forshew). In this review, we will provide the level of evidence, when available, for each intervention that is currently considered “standard of care” by consensus opinion.

An individual should be cleared prior to a shock only when convenient. true or false
tekilochka [14]

False. An individual should always be cleared prior to a shock with defribillator.

<h3>What is defibrillation?</h3>
  • Ventricular fibrillation (V-Fib) and non-perfusing ventricular tachycardia are two heart arrhythmias that require defibrillation as a treatment (V-Tach).
  • A counter-shock, also known as an electric current dose, is given to the heart by a defibrillator. This process depolarizes a significant portion of the heart muscle, terminating the arrhythmia, even though it is not entirely understood.
  • The natural pacemaker of the body, the sinoatrial node of the heart, is then able to restore a regular sinus rhythm.
  • Defibrillators cannot restart a heart that is in asystole (flatline), but cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) may.
