What do folic acid supplements and iron supplements have in common? They are used together to treat cases of septicemia. Both ar

gregori [183]

Answer:

What iron and folic acid supplements have in common is that both are frequently prescribed for cases of anemia.

Explanation:

Iron and folic acid supplements are necessary and commonly used in the treatment of anemia. Clinical anemia is a condition due to decreased red blood cells, hemoglobin, or lack of iron.

Iron is an important part of hemoglobin, a molecule found in red blood cells that allows the transport of O₂ and CO₂ gases.
Folic acid is a necessary cofactor for the synthesis of new cells, including red blood cells or erythrocytes.

The joint use of folic acid and iron supplements in cases of anemia contributes to the formation of new erythrocytes and hemoglobin molecules, in addition to improving and preventing anemia by providing sufficient iron deposits for these cells to fulfill their function.

The other options are not correct because:

Antibiotics are used in septicemia.
Folic acid and iron are not related to the amount or health of the leukocytes.
Folic acid and iron are not used to inhibit platelet aggregation.

: What is the importance of measuring and documenting vital signs for patients and the healthcare professionals that treat them?

Ganezh [65]

The importance of measuring and documenting vital signs for patients is because they are the baseline of health of that patient. It can tell a healthcare professional if the person has a trend of hypertension (high blood pressure) or tachycardia (increased heart rate). It can tell if someone is febrile which can tell if someone has an infection.

Knowing the baseline vitals will help diagnose and properly treat a patient. Without knowing what the baseline vitals of a patient is, it can be dangerous to the patient if a healthcare professional treats them. For example, if a patient is presenting with chest pain in relation to a heart attack, the healthcare provider will need a set of baseline vitals in order to give that patient nitroglycerin (a medication to open the vessels). The top number (systolic) of the blood pressure must be greater than 90mmHg. Without knowing the initial blood pressure of the patient and giving the nitroglycerin, the healthcare provider would risk dropping the blood pressure dangerously low and likely killing the patient.
