Black_prince [1.1K]

A nurse is questioned about a long-acting beta2-agonist drug by a patient who experiences persistent, recurrent asthma exacerbations. As prophylactic, the glucocorticoid is used to stop exacerbations.

  • Asthma is a chronic respiratory disease that affects a lot of people. In wealthy nations, it is viewed as a major cause of morbidity and a major contributor to the high cost of healthcare.
  • The two main pathogenic characteristics of asthmatics' airways are inflammation and hyperresponsiveness.
  • Treatment for asthma should be intensified gradually in order to regulate the condition, both for symptom relief and to avoid exacerbations.
  • This methodical approach, which begins with low dose inhaled corticosteroids and progresses, if necessary, to inhaled corticosteroids combined with long-acting -agonists, will control the majority of instances of asthma.

Which reason is appropriate to take a child that underwent a submersion injury immediately to the hospital
ExtremeBDS [4]

A child who underwent submersion injury needs to be taken to a hospital because the child can suffer from <u>hypoxia, damage to neurons, pulmonary edema, further complications</u>, etc.

Submersion Injury

Submersion injury occurs when the person who is submerged in a liquid aspirates the liquid or has laryngospasm that occurs without the aspiration of the liquid. The former was previously called wet drowning and the latter was called dry drowning. The person must be removed from the liquid as fast as possible and 1st aid must be given after which the person must be taken to the hospital for further treatment.

A child who underwent submersion injury needs to be admitted to a hospital as various complications such as edema, respiratory compromise, hypoxia, etc. Hypoxia can lead to severe damage to various cells including neurons and other cells in the body. Submersion injury also results in the reflex inspiration that can lead to pulmonary edema.

Note: - The question seems incomplete and the missing options could be

  1. "Hypoxia can cause global cell damage.
  2. Neurons often sustain irreversible damage.
  3. Complications can occur even after 24 hours.
  4. Fluid absorption in the pulmonary circulation causes pulmonary edema."

sorry I don't know pla

Answer:

Aqui começa a trajetória do bebê dentro da barriga da mãe. Neste momento ele é uma minúscula bolinha formada por centenas de células que se multiplicam freneticamente. Quando essa bolinha de células (chamada blastocisto) se assentar no útero, a parte dela que se transformará na placenta vai começar a produzir o hormônio da gravidez (gonadotrofina coriônica humana, hCG). O hCG é o hormônio detectado nos testes de gravidez.
