The nurse should call the attention of the attending physician or the healthcare practitioner in charge. ST segment elevation in leads II, III, and aVF signify a massive transmural inferior wall infarct that can lead to loss of ventricular function and parasympathetic stimulation of the heart causing bradyarrhythmias then into cardiogenic shock and eventually death of the patient.

Answer:

Nurse must provide necessary medication such as  

Aspirin, streptokinase, heparin and an ACE inhibitor

Explanation:

When the ST segment is elevated in the inferior leads i.e II, III and aVF, then this condition signifies that the RCA (right coronary artery) is injured or occluded and inferior myocardial tissue faces acute infraction. This can cause several complications and in severe cases can prove to be fatal. It is a sign of heart attack. Thus, the nurse must provide necessary medication such as  

Aspirin, streptokinase, heparin and an ACE inhibitor

The mitochondrion, like the nucleus, has two or more membrane layers. How is the innermost of these layers different from that o
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The double membrane of the mitochondria is highly folded,and therefore wider when unfolded than that of the nucleus.This is an adaptive feature  to increase the surface area for reactions (electrochemical  gradient) by accommodating protons pumped into it by the proton motive force(PMF)  from the matrix to set up the electrochemical gradients needed to generate the energy needed by ATPase synthase enzymes for ATPs synthesis.

Required number of protons needed to be accommodated by the double membrane to generate enough energy for ATPase synthesis,therefore larger surface area is needed.
