A patient is brought to the hospital unconscious and is a known diabetic patient. The medic was unable to get a bedside glucose

reading. Upon analysis, the laboratorian got a glucose reading of 800++ mg/dL. The ++ means the concentration is higher than the analyzer can read. As a laboratorian, explain how you would do a 1/2 dilution and what the patients actual result is if the analyzer reports a 459 mg/dL sugar following the dilution.

Answer: 918 mg/dl would be the actual blood glucose level. 459 X 2 = 918.

The lab technician adds equal amounts of the plasma sample to an equal amount of the dilution, ie 1:1.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are one of the commonest causes of medication error in developed countries, particularly in the elderly due to poly-therapy, with a prevalence of 20-40%. In particular, poly-therapy increases the complexity of therapeutic management and thereby the risk of clinically important DDIs, which can both induce the development of adverse drug reactions or reduce the clinical efficacy. DDIs can be classify into two main groups: pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic. In this review, using Medline, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library and Reference lists we searched articles published until June 30 2012, and we described the mechanism of pharmacokinetic DDIs focusing the interest on their clinical implications.

Keywords: Absorption, adverse drug reaction, distribution, drug-drug interactions, excretion, metabolism, poly-therapy

a client presents to the clinic with severe edema. which type of deficiency should be suspected in this client?
Natali5045456 [20]

Excess fluid in your tissues leads to this swelling (edema), which is frequently brought on by congestive heart failure or a blockage in a leg vein. These are edema symptoms.

<h3>How can you eliminate severe edema?</h3>

Treatment for edema entails a number of steps, including treating the underlying cause (if feasible), cutting back on salt (sodium) in their diet, and, in many situations, using a drug called a diuretic to get rid of extra fluid. Additionally suggested measures include elevating the legs and wearing compression stockings.

<h3>How can you tell whether an edema is severe?</h3>

If your edema suddenly gets worse, hurts, is new, or if it's accompanied by chest pain or breathing difficulties, seek medical attention right once. The latter could be an indication of pulmonary edema, a serious illness where fluid fills the lung cavities.
