Which of the following describes a blood pressure reading?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The blood pressure reading corresponds to the pressures systolic / diasoltic (option d).

Explanation:

When the blood pressure measurement is made —with the use of a sphygmomanometer— it shows the pressure in the arteries at a precise moment of the heart's activity. The result can be read in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and are:

  1. A first reading corresponds to the transmission of the pressure exerted by the heartbeat, called systolic pressure.  
  2. The second reading is always a lower value, and corresponds to the blood pressure between heartbeats, or diastolic pressure.

These readings are obtained by compressing the territory of an artery with a bracelet and then decompressing it to perceive the turbulent flow that follows decompression. This turbulent flow can be perceived by auscultation, which is called Korotkoff's sounds.

Normal systolic pressure in a young adult is in the range of 100 to 135 mmHg, while the diastolic is between 60 and 85 mmHg.

The other alternatives are not correct:

<em>     a- </em><u><em>Diastolic / systolic .</em></u><em> The first reading always corresponds to the systolic pressure.</em>

<em>     b- </em><u><em>Good pressure / bad pressure </em></u><em>. It identifies more blood pressure disturbances than blood pressure readings.</em>

<em>     c- </em><u><em>Upper / lower</em></u><em> . In medicine, the correct blood pressure reading is systolic/diastolic, so saying upper/lower or maximum/minimum is an error.</em>

Which treatments would most likely be recommended for type 2 diabetes?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Generally, Metformin is the first medication prescribed for type 2 diabetes, as it is used to treat or prevent type 2 diabetes if you're at a high risk of developing it, as it lowers the amount of sugar being released by the liver and improves how the body responds to insulin.
