Answer: check her medical history to see if she has had these issues before during your physical exam alway check above and below the area the patient is complaining about. So for sinuses palpate the sinus drainage passage with the digits of your fingers. For below palpate the back of the neck ask if there’s any tenderness or pain also examine the throat and check the lymph nodes and tonsils. Do an oral exam look at the tonsils tongue teeth look for any inflammation or redness. Look in the nasal cavity to see if you see a deviated septum dryness bleeding any blockage after a full physical exam like that order your x-ray which would typically not be done on an acute patient with these symptoms but in a patient with chronic issues continuing I would immediately get a consult to a specialist which in her case would be an ENT( ears,nose,throat). A simple clinical treatment for sinus issues would to just put the patient on a antihistamine some examples are (Benadryl, Allegra and Clara tin) I’d recommend the patient follow up within a week to see if that helped at all and then if not follow through with the plan I set in place above. If you do place the patient on an antibiotic I would recommend (amoxicillin).

AlekseyPX

Respiratory depression

Respiratory depression is a complication of epidural anesthesia and should be closely monitored in laboring clients. A failed block, accidental intrathecal block, and a postdural headache are all side effects of a spinal epidural block

<h3>What is Epidural anesthesia ?</h3>

Epidural anesthesia is often used during labor and delivery, and surgery in the pelvis and legs. Epidural and spinal anesthesia are often used when:

  • The procedure or labor is too painful without any pain medicine. The procedure is in the belly, legs, or feet

The treatment for the ingestion of ethylene glycol is an intravenous solution of ethanol. How might this help prevent toxic leve
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

<u>Ethanol prevents toxicity by competing with Ethylene glycol for metabolism by alcohol dehydrogenase.</u>

Explanation:

Ethylene glycol is an organic compound usually used in antifreeze solutions, solvents and cleaners.

It is abused during self-destruction and accidental intakes.

<u>In the body, ethylene glycol is acted upon by alcohol dehydrogenase and is converted into glycolate and oxalate.</u>

Glycolate and oxalate are both nephrotoxic/ kidney damaging substances. Oxalate precipitates calcium oxalate stones in the kidney. Ethylene glycol poisoning also causes high anion gap metabolic acidosis.

In order to prevent ethylene glycol poisoning, the patient is infused with ethanol, ethanol <u>prevents toxicity by competing with Ethylene glycol for metabolism by alcohol dehydrogenase.</u> In this way, ethylene glycol is not metabolized and the formation of nephrotoxic substances is prevented. Alcohol dehydrogenase instead reacts with ethanol to form acetaldehyde.

A nurse is caring for a client with a closed chest tube drainage system. when the client is repositioned, the chest tube is disc
user100 [1]

When the chest tube is disconnected from the chest tube drainage system, immediately clump the tube and place the end of the tube in sterile water and the two end need to be swabbed with alcohol and should be reconnected back.

A chest tube drainage system is a disposable and sterile system that includes a compartment system that has a one-way valve, with multiple chambers to remove air or fluid and prevent the return of them back into the patient. A chest tube drainage system consists of three chambers a Collection chamber, a Water-seal chamber, Wet or dry suction control chamber. the chest tube is a sterile tube with several drainage holes that are inserted into the pleural space. The chest tube is connected to a closed chest drainage system, which allows for fluid or air to be drained, and prevents them from entering the pleural space, the system is airtight to avoid the inflow of atmospheric pressure.

have you ever been refused a u.s. visa, or been refused admission to the united states, or withdrawn your application for admiss
a_sh-v [17]

If you have ever been refused a U.S. visa, been refused admission to the united states, or withdrawn your application for admission at the port of entry, write the specifics of any time you've had a U.S. visa application rejected here.

Even if you have previously had a U.S. visa of some other kind rejected, you must respond "Yes." You have to be honest here (and of course, everywhere in this entire process). Consulates still look at your documents and file. They can also see if you've ever lied, submitted false documentation when applying for a visa, or broken the rules of a visa in the past.

It would be challenging for you to obtain a visa if any of that is accurate. Even if you can now produce the document that caused your visa to be rejected under Section 221(g) because it was lacking, the rejection still counts as a rejection, and you must comply with it.  

Therefore, you must affirmatively answer "yes" to this query and supply all subsequently asked information. A tourist visa or even a student visa has already been refused to many persons. If you apply for an H1 visa, a fiancé K1 visa, etc., this is not a problem.

However, this application may also be rejected if you were rejected due to fraud.

The terms atria and auricle mean the same thing.<br> a. True<br> b. False
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The terms auricle and atrium were used interchangeably to refer to the upper heart chamber in old literatures, thus leading to confusion. To put it simply, atrium is the upper chamber of heart and auricle (also called atrial appendage) is the ear like conical muscular pouch that arise from each atrium.
