A client with diabetes insipidus asks the nurse about the purpose of a new medication, vasopressin. The nurse provides teaching
enyata [817]

Answer: The correct statement is option 3 "It prevents me from 'peeing' so much."

Explanation:

Diabetes insipidus is an abnormal health condition that occurs due to lack of production of Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or the inability of the kidney to respond to produced antidiuretic hormone. This can occur as a result of head trauma, tumours of pituitary gland or genetic origin.

The common symptoms of Diabetes insipidus includes:

--> Excessive production of dilute urine (polyuria)

--> Increased thirst (polydipsia).

In the management of diabetes insipidus, VASOPRESSIN medication is introduced. It has an antidiuretic effect. In its mechanism of action, it decreases water excretion by the kidney through increasing water reabsorption in the collecting ducts, Therefore the statement made by the patient indicates successful teaching as it helps reduce the volume of urine produced leading to decrease in frequent urination.

Which statement BEST defines emotions? A. Emotions are feelings that randomly occur and for no reason. B. Emotions are feelings
lora16 [44]

Answer:

The correct answer is option "C. Emotions are feelings that are triggered by thoughts or events."

Explanation:

Emotions are feelings that can be triggered by thoughts because emotion on its own is a response. Emotions can show feelings which could also be the product of thoughts. For example, the thought of one passing an exam could trigger an emotional feeling if the goal is achieved, which is evident when one is happy. That emotion could also turn to an emotional feeling of sadness if one fails the exam. Two individuals having the same feeling about something could have different emotions because their thoughts are different. Emotions might be different for similar situations and emotions could also be triggered by reflexes. For example, a child that sees a snake and reacted emotionally whether positively or negatively.

Emotions could also be triggered by events either positively or negatively. Someone could lose control of his or her emotions by reacting to events with feelings like depression, suicidal thoughts.
