Answer: Bulk-forming laxatives

Explanation:

Most laxatives that are available in the market are Bulk-forming laxatives and this is because they are first line laxatives before more serious laxatives are used. They prevent mild short term constipation and because they are so gentle on the body, are safe for use in the long term.

Bulk-forming laxatives work by absorbing liquid in the intestine thereby helping in bowel water retention such that the stool is softer, more liquid and therefore easier to pass.

Are the triage decisions made in the field, in the ED, and in the ICU the same or different? In what ways?
never [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

ED triage: Used daily to prioritize patient assessment and treatment in the emergency department during routine functioning. Priority is given to those most in need. Resources are not rationed. Inpatient triage: Applied day-to-day in a variety of medical settings, such as the ICU, medical imaging, surgery, and outpatient areas, to allocate scarce resources. Priority is given to those most in need based upon medical criteria. Resources are rarely rationed. Incident triage: Used in multiple casualty incidents such as bus accidents, fires, or airline accidents to prioritize the evacuation and treatment of patients. These events place significant stress on local resources but do not overwhelm them. Resources are rarely rationed, and most patients receive maximal treatment. Military triage: Used on the battlefield, modern military triage protocols most reflect the original concept of triage and include many of the same principles. Resources are rationed when their supply is threatened. Disaster triage: Used in mass casualty incidents that overwhelm local and regional healthcare systems. Disaster triage protocols both prioritize salvageable patients for treatment and ration resources to ensure the greatest good for the greatest number.
