Answer: This is TRUE for me. Osteoporosis is a preventable disease.
Explanation:
In this condition, bone density ( the amount of bone tissue) is reduced because it's deposition does not keep pace with resorption. Although the bone is adequately mineralised, it is fragile and microscopically abnormal, with loss of internal structure.
Peak bone mass occurs around 35 years and then gradually declines in both sexes. Lowered oestrogen levels after the menopause are associated with a period of accelerated bone loss in women. Thereafter bone density in women is less than in men for any given age. That is why in North America, one-third of all women experience fractures because of this disease, amounting to about 2 million bone fractures per year.
Common features of osteoporosis are:
--> skeletal deformity: gradual loss of height with age, caused by compression of vertebrae.
--> bone pain
--> fractures: especially of the hip ( neck of femur), wrist and vertebrae.
It is TRUE for me that some risk factors can't be changed ( which is the low oestrogen levels that occur after menopause in women) but others, such as poor calcium intake, can.
Exercise and Calcium intake during childhood and adolescence are important in determining eventual bone mass of an individual and in preventing risk of osteoporosis in later life.
<h2>Question ❓:</h2>
what is the correct sequence ofa ctions for performing mouth to mouth and nose breaths for an infant
<h2>Answer ❄️: </h2>
blow a breath steadily into the babys mouth and nose over 1 second. It should be sufficient to make the chest visibly rise. Keeping their head tilted and chin lifted, take your mouth away and watch for the chest to fall as air comes out. Take another breath and repeat this sequence 4 more times.
Hippocratic Oath: One of the oldest binding documents in history, the Oath written by Hippocrates is still held sacred by physicians: to treat the ill to the best of one's ability, to preserve a patient's privacy, to teach the secrets of medicine to the next generation, and so on.
Answer:
Small diameter nerves are the first to be anesthetized. Myelinated nerves are blocked faster than unmyelinated nerves. Because size is thought to outweigh myelination, nerve fibers are blocked
Explanation:
Answer:
The CPT code for second trimester obstetrical ultrasound with a fetal anatomical evaluation to obtain fetal heartbeat and fetus’s position is CPT code 76811.
Explanation:
According to the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, the CPT code 76811 ultrasound is a pregnant uterus real-time ultrasound complete with image documentation performed to diagnose fetal anomalies. It is done during the second trimester of pregnancy with various indications like twin, triplet, or quadruplet pregnancy; suspected fetal any genetic or anatomic anomalies; maternal gestational diabetes, obesity etc. Fetal anatomical structures like abdomen, chest (heart), extremities, head, face and neck, spine, and position of the fetus are examined under this ultrasound. This ultrasound provides fetal 4-chamber heart view with heart activities to identify any fetal or congenital heart defects
