Answer:

Determine current cervical dilation.

Explanation:

Oxytocin is a key hormone that acts on the uterus and breasts to induce uterine contractions and lactation afterward. On the other hand, Pitocin is a synthetic drug that mimics oxytocin by inducing labor and by strengthening labor contractions during childbirth. Pitocin is administered in an initial dose of 0.5-1 milliunits per minute (mU/min) and this amount is gradually increased in 1-2 mU/min until to reach the desired frequency of contractions and labor progressed to 5-6 cm dilation.

Art [367]
This is a great question—

First off, it’s important to know that “correlation does not imply causation”. This means that even if two events coincide, it doesn’t necessarily mean one caused the other. Typically another variable that causes them is involved.

For example (it’s silly but bare with me), if a study found that there was a strong correlation between ice cream sales and shark attacks at a number of beaches sampled, you might conclude that an increase in ice cream sales leads to more shark attacks because they want to eat people full of ice cream! That is FALSE. The increase of ice cream sales and shark attacks are due to warmer temperatures i.e. people enjoy cold treats in the heat and sharks come out in warmer water.

So back to to your question... If a community has a lot of doctors as well as high rates of illness (correlation) you can NOT assume that doctors cause illness (causation). Potential reasons why there may be more doctors in that area is because there have always been more sick patients and therefore more need for them to be treated. ....Also it’s highly unlikely for a doctor to specifically “cause” an illness unless they are not following proper infection control protocol (such as disinfecting surfaces and instruments people touch between visits). They typically keep the place as sterile as possible to limit the spread of infections!

Hope that helps :)

A nursing student is evaluating the socializing abilities of 3- and 4-year-old kids. What common traits can you observe in kids of the two distinct ages?

What is socializing skills?

Interpersonal or communication skills are other names for social skills or abilities. These are the skills that people have and employ when interacting and communicating with one another. The method of communication may be non-verbal or verbal (spoken or written) (using body language, gestures and facial expressions).

Both are afraid. Children as young as 3 and as old as 4 are terrified. Children as young as 3 years old can play in both parallel and associative ways, whereas children as young as 4 years old can only play associatively. Children who are 4 years old can freely share family stories with others; 3-year-olds cannot. Children who are 5 years old are more motivated to please people than those who are 3 or 4 years old.
