Human blood is composed of two essential elements: the liquid consisting of water, organic matter and minerals in the solid soluble and consists of cellular elements (red cells, white cells and platelets). In case the blood harvested from the patient's vein is placed in a test tube coagulates after a few minutes. Then it is separated into a liquid layer, the upper, which is called serum and a lower layer, which is solid clot. If the tube that was harvested blood of a substance anticoagulant (which prevents clotting) when blood no longer coagulates, but separates everything into two layers: the upper layer liquid consisting of plasma and lower layer, solid, constituted coagulated celuare the elements.
From these two components serum and blood plasma will perform biochemical and serological main medical tests. Of blood cellular components is achieved hematology. Hematology investigating the number, shape, and composition characteristics of cellular elements of the blood.
Answer:
c) Whenever heartburn occurs (prn) Q.I.D.
Explanation:
- Antacids are OTC drugs (no prescription needed) used to treat heartburn. They are usually salts (aluminium, calcium or magnesium) that neutralize the excess of acid in the stomach.
- Examples of antacids are: Pepto Bismol (P&G), Maalox (SANOFI) and Tums (GSK)
- There are other types of medications that control heartburn, but they do it through a different mechanism: instead of neutralizing the excess of acid, they inhibit the production of acid in the stomach. These are: PPIs (Proton Pump Inhibitors) and H2 inhibitors/blockers. These medications have important side effects and interactions, which is why they shouldn't be taken instead of an antacid to relief sporadic heartburn symptoms.
- Ranitidine (Zantac, by SANOFI) is an example of an H2 inhibitor, and Pantoprazole (Protonix, by Pfizer) is an example of a PPI.
- People who present heartburn only from time to time and have no underlying reflux disease are not prescribed PPIs or H2 inhibitors. It is advised that they take antacids after meals when heartburn occurs, but not in a routinely manner and not for more than 2 weeks. If symptoms persist or worsen, clients should see a doctor.
- Diet and lifestyle changes are also recommended for people who present heartburn; these include: avoiding foods that trigger it such as fried and spicy food & carbonated beverages, eating smaller meals, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding smoking, and avoiding lying down after eating.
