Medicine

mezya [45]2 years ago

Answer: Not totally certain if you have any multiple choice answers or anything but here's a general idea of what I would write in response.

Explanation: First step is always going to be asking them if they're okay, the question says they're unresponsive so you want to access the situation. If they are spasming and signs lead to them having a seizure your going to immediately call for an ambulance, don't try to restrain them unless they are potentially going to hurt themselves ie. falling off of something or hitting something dangerous nearby. Restraining them can potentially damage their nerves and muscles more than just letting them flail.

If they don't seem to be having any signs of a seizure then you want to check if they're breathing. If they aren't you need to start performing cpr. Have someone nearby call an ambulance or call 911 and ask for walk-through steps if you aren't certified, that way you know what your doing and you can have that support you if they try to sue you (which won't be a problem because of the good samaritan law anyways) You want to get them laying on their back, tilt their head and make sure nothings restricting their air flow. Then your going to do a couple breaths, if they don't start breathing you'll begin compressions. Compressions, breath, compressions breath. I reccommend looking up appropriate compression techniques for different age people and how to correctly administer if you aren't already aware since I don't want to write a whole article here- I hope this helped!

which of the following statements is true? practicing soccer at a high altitude for at least a week decreases blood flow. pregna
Andreas93 [3]

Pregnancy has no effect on blood flow. receiving a blood transfusion increases blood flow greatly.

<h3>What is blood transfusion?</h3>

Intravenously putting blood components into a person's circulation is known as a blood transfusion. For a number of medical disorders, transfusions are performed to replenish lost blood components.

Patients who have sustained major injuries in vehicle accidents or natural disasters are treated with blood transfusions. Blood transfusions are frequently given to people who have a condition like leukemia or kidney disease, both of which can induce anemia.

Through a little tube inserted into a vein in your arm, donated blood is given to you as part of a standard medical operation known as a blood transfusion. Blood lost during surgery or an accident can be replaced with the aid of this potentially life-saving technique.

Alecsey [184]

The endotracheal tube of 2.5mm can be used to intubate a newborn with an estimated gestational age of 26 weeks.

<h3>What is an endotracheal tube?</h3>

Tube constructed of polyvinyl chloride, placed between the vocal cords through the trachea is referred to as endotracheal tube.

It aids to give oxygen and gases to the lungs and protects it from contamination, such as gastric contents or blood.

Typically, the endotracheal tube of 2.5mm can be used to intubate a newborn with an estimated gestational age of 26 weeks.

Thus, the size of the tube should be of 2.5mm diameter.
