You witness someone suddenly collapse the person is unresponsive

Medicine
1 answer:
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!

What is the crude mortality rate for Regionville? Regionville is a community of 100,000 persons. During 1985 there were 1,000 de
uysha [10]

Answer:

10 per 1,000.

Explanation:

The death rate and birth rate affects the population dynamics of the particular area. The birth rate increases  the population size whereas the death rate decreases the population size.

The death rate of a population can be calculated by the following formula:

Crude death rate = total death/ total population

Here, total death = 1,000 and total population = 100,000.

Crude death rate = 1,000/ 100,000 = 0.01 or  10 per 1,000.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Patient non-compliance

Explanation:

In this scenario, Mr. Bear was diagnosed with bronchitis and prescribed a two week course of antibiotics. After four days, he's feeling better, so he stops taking his antibiotic. This is an example of patient non-compliance.

A patient non-compliance can be defined as a situation where an individual who is diagnosed with an illness and prescribed with a medication refuses to take his or her medication. This refusal to comply with the prescribed medication is generally considered to be a wrongful act and is most likely to have an adverse effect or consequences on the health of a patient, as the illness may reoccur in the nearest future or result in a relapse.

Hence, medical professionals usually advise that patient strictly adhere to the instructions given to them rather than non-compliance.
