Discuss the power of medical authority medical sociology
xz_007 [3.2K]

Over the past several decades medical sociology has become a major subdiscipline of sociology, at the same time assuming an increasingly conspicuous role in health care disciplines such as public health, health care management, nursing, and clinical medicine. The name medical sociology garners immediate recognition and legitimacy and, thus, continues to be widely used—for instance, to designate the Medical Sociology Section of the American Sociological Association—even though most scholars in the area concede that the term is narrow and misleading. Many courses and texts, rather than using the term "sociology of medicine," refer instead to the sociology of health, health and health care, health and illness, health and medicine, or health and healing. The study of medicine is only part of the sociological study of health and health care, a broad field ranging from (1) social epidemiology, the study of socioeconomic, demographic, and behavioral factors in the etiology of disease and mortality; to (2) studies of the development and organizational dynamics of health occupations and professions, hospitals, health maintenance and long-term care organizations, including interorganizational relationships as well as interpersonal behavior, for example, between physician and patient; to (3) the reactions of societies to illness, including cultural meanings and normative expectations and, reciprocally, the reactions of individuals in interpreting, negotiating, managing, and socially constructing illness experience; to (4) the social policies, social movements, politics, and economic conditions that shape and are shaped by health and disease within single countries, as well as in a comparative, international context.

a_sh-v [17]

Four major steps for conducting strength tests

Explanation:

Step1 : Select resistance exercises

Step2: Determine the load athletes can work

Step3: Testing athlete based on essential exercises

Step4: Determine the one rep max

The ultimate goal in conducting strength tests is to evaluate an individual’s one repetition maximum. This refers to the greatest load that a person can fully move by pushing, pulling or lifting once without injuring or damaging the muscle or any failure.  

Strength testing is done through resistance exercises to measure the strength or ability to work against resistance. It depicts the maximum force that the muscle or muscle group generate to do a work in a repetitive ordered series without damaging the muscles or fatiguing. Depending upon the type of muscle, strength tests and exercises varies.

Benchmarks should be set for athletes to determine the load that he/she can lift repetitively for a given number of times.

Ten (10) milliliters of 10% calcium gluconate injection and 10 mL of multivitamin infusion are mixed with 500 mL of a 5% dextros
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

26 drops per minute

Explanation:

First, I added up the total volume: 10 ml plus 10 ml plus 500 ml. I get a total of 520 ml that should be administered  in five hours.

Since they ask for minutes, I change those fiver hours to minutes by multiplying them by 60, which gives me a total of 300 minutes.

Since there are 15 drops per ml, I now multiply that number by the total volume (520), giving me a total of 7800 drops.

Now, I just have to divide 7800 and 300. This gives me the number of drops I need per minute: 26
