Pulse oximetry is the measure of oxygen in your blood. 81% is NOT normal.

A normal level of oxygen is usually 95% or higher. Some people with chronic lung disease or sleep apnea can have normal levels around 90%.

Question 1 of 20
Wittaler [7]

The nurse should question about the use of <u>heparin sodium</u> in the physician’s drug order to a hemorrhagic stroke patient.

Explanation:

A hemorrhagic stroke leads to impaired brain functioning due to bursting of a blood vessel and resultant bleeding in the brain.

When an anticoagulant like heparin is administered to a hemorrhagic stroke patient, it increases the risk of further bleeding from the weakened arteries.

Heparin is administered to reduce or remove any blood clots; however, as a blood thinner, it poses an increased risk of further bleeding or hemorrhage just related to the heparin itself. Blood clotting time should be monitored by coagulation tests while administering heparin-based drugs like heparin sodium.

Complications from heparin sodium can lead to adrenal, ovarian, or retroperitoneal hemorrhage.

Which clinical manifestation may occur during the acute viral infection stage of human immunodeficiency virus infection
olga_2 [115]

Flu-like Symptoms may occur during the acute viral infection stage of human immunodeficiency virus infection.

The initial stage of HIV infection is known as acute HIV infection, and it typically appears 2–4 weeks after HIV infection. Some people experience flu-like symptoms at this time, including fever, headache, and rash. HIV multiplies quickly during the acute stage of infection and spreads all over the body.

The immune system's infection-fighting CD4 cells (CD4 T lymphocytes) are attacked and destroyed by the virus. The risk of HIV transmission significantly rises during the acute HIV infection stage due to the extremely high HIV blood levels. If ART is initiated at this point, a person might have major health benefits.
