The nurse is trying to determine the ability of the client with myocardial infarction (MI) to manage independently at home after discharge. Which statement by the client is the strongest indicator of the potential for difficulty after discharge?1. I need to start exercising more to improve my health.2. I will be sure to keep my appointment with the cardiologist.3. I don't have anyone to help me with doing heavy housework at home.4. I think I have a good understanding of what all my medications are for.
Answer:
3. I don't have anyone to help me with doing heavy housework at home.
Explanation:
All the response options, with the exception of the third, have an autonomy of the patient, where he shows that he will have no difficulties in performing necessary tasks, without the help of third parties. However, in the third answer option, the patient shows that he will have difficulties after being discharged, as he fears that he will have difficulties in being alone, since he has no one to help him.
Therefore, we can assume that the correct answer to your question is the third answer option.
The RDAs for nutrients are set based on the dietary intakes of people who appear to be maintaining nutritional health. based on a person's height and weight. to cover the needs of 97% of the population. by the FDA for food labeling purposes.
Answer:
The correct answer is '' to cover the needs of 97% of the population.''
Explanation:
The Recommended Daily Allowances or RDA, by definition, correspond to the average amount of a nutrient that a healthy person must ingest daily, through diet, to maintain a correct state of health. These established values are an approximate guide to meet the needs (intake level of a sufficient nutrient) of almost all (97 to 98%) individuals in the healthy population, but may vary due to factors such as age, sex or level of activity. It must be taken into account that each nutrient has a series of functions in the body, hence the importance of knowing the approximate amount that we should consume each day and, therefore, of knowing the RDA.
Cholesterol is necessary for the production of many other compounds in the body but can become harmful when blood levels exceed 135 mg/dl. exceed the body's ability to use it. can only be controlled through medications. a and b.
Answer:
The correct answer is a and b( exceed 135 mg/dl and can only be controlled through medications.)
Explanation:
Cholesterol is a natural fatty substance that is present in the body and is necessary for the proper functioning of the cells of the human body. It is considered to be at the high limit when the whole blood level exceeds 130 milligrams per deciliter of blood (mg / dl). When this happens, fats tend to build up inside the arteries, impeding blood flow and can lead to serious heart disease and stroke. A doctor usually prescribes drugs to lower high cholesterol (they usually recommend statins), it is because the person is in the intermediate risk limit and has factors that increase the risk of heart disease or stroke, causing long-term arteries become clogged and diseases such as atherosclerosis or heart attack appear.
Martha Wembly has a history of diabetes mellitus, type 2. How is this different from diabetes mellitus, type 1
Answer and explanation:
Diabetes Mellitus is a condition characterized by high blood sugar levels (hyperglycemia), if not properly controlled this disease can severely damage many organs and cause death.
There are different types of Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1, Type 2, and Gestational (this type of diabetes, in particular, is unique to pregnant women).
In a healthy body, when blood sugar levels are high (for example, right after we eat), Insulin would be released from the pancreatic beta-cells to induce the entering of glucose (also called sugar) into different tissues such as skeletal muscle and fat, where it will be used to produce energy and store the excess for when the body needs it.
Patients that suffer from Diabetes Mellitus cannot get the glucose they ingest into the mentioned tissues, and for that reason, the blood sugar levels stay high and can produce several life-threatening consequences. This incapacity can have different roots and is the reason behind the classification of this condition.
Type 1 Diabetes is the most uncommon of the two and it appears for the first time during childhood or teenage years. Patients with type 1 Diabetes CANNOT produce Insulin, because their pancreatic beta-cells are deficient. For this reason, these individuals have to be administered exogenous Insulin for the rest of their lives.
Type 2 Diabetes is, by far, the most common type of Diabetes. Unlike type 1 diabetics, these patients can produce glucose, but the combination between genetic predisposal and unhealthy habits such as poor diets or sedentarism can lead to a condition called Insulin resistance, in which the tissues cannot accept the glucose even if there's Insulin around. This type of Diabetes usually starts manifesting during adulthood (especially in patients that are older than 40 years old) and is treated with specific medication and a change in their habits.

Electronic Health Records (EHR) have truly changed everything in US healthcare. But like any major change in healthcare, there are pros and cons, advantages and disadvantages. Please discuss the benefits of EHR implementation, and also discuss the EHR challenges which are being encountered.
Answer and Explanation:
The implementation of EHR can be considered something extremely beneficial for the healthcare system anywhere in the world, due to its numerous benefits such as the centralization of patient information in a single system. This allows any health professional, in any region, to access the patient's health history, test results, medications used by the patient and family history. The EHR also promotes agility in the search for information about the patient and savings in physical space, as the EHR eliminates the need for storing patient papers and documents. Failures in drug prescriptions are also reduced and service and diagnosis are streamlined.
However, some challenges must be overcome for EHR to be efficiently implemented. One of these challenges is the cost, as the implementation of EHR can have a high cost that is passed on to the patient and can become unfeasible. in addition, it is necessary to create a very efficient electronic system, which prevents the existence of data loss, malfunctions and hacker attacks.

Choose one answer:
a. Potassium
b. Calcium
c. Chloride
d. Sodium
e. This cannot be stated
Answer:
e. This cannot be stated.
Explanation:
Potassium , Calcium , Chloride and Sodium are the ions that contributes to the generation of the value of resting potential. There is no example of such an ion which causes the least contributes to the generation of the value of resting potential so that's why we choose option E. The resting membrane potential (RMP) occurs due to changes in the permeability of membrane for potassium, sodium, calcium, and chloride, which leads to the movement of these ions across it.
A weight reducing diet required the daily intake of ‘liquid protein’[soup of hydrolyzed gelatin], water and an assortments of vitamins. All other food and drink were to be avoided. People on this diet typically lost 10 to 14kg in the first week. A number of persons on this diet died. What are some of the dangers inherent in the diet and how can they lead to death?
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
From the information given, it should be noted that Gelatin has a nutritional distribution of amino acids that's unbalanced.
It should be noted that in a scenario whereby large amounts of gelatin are ingested into the body such that there is catabolizing of the excess amino acids, there will be an excess of the urwa cycle capacity which then brings about ammonia toxicity.
Furthermore, the dehydration which can be caused due to the excretion of large amount of urea can also lead to death.
Mrs. Mendoza, who has had type 2 diabetes for 17 years, had a below-the-knee amputation of her gangrenous left foot. Her electronic health record indicates that she has had peripheral neuropath, diabetic retinopathy with loss of visual acuity, gastroparesis, and two previous hospitalizations for hyperosmolar hyperglycemic nonketotic syndrome. The two basic components of type 2 diabetes are _________. (select all that apply)
Answer:
The correct answer is - Type 2 diabetes mellitus has major components: insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion.
Explanation:
In type 2 diabetes there are two major components that play an important role to cause this that are Insulin resistance in which insulin could not bind with the specific receptors that result in less effective at stimulating glucose uptake.
The other major component is impaired insulin secretion in which an increased amount of insulin is required that there is not enough insulin to prevent the breakdown of fats and production of ketones.

Responses of the Mast cells to the allergen include/s a. All of the answers are correct b. Degranulation c. Secretion of lipid mediators d. Secretion of cytokines
Answer:
The correct answer is - A. All of the answers are correct.
Explanation:
Mast cells are the cells that are present on connective tissue. These cells have many garnules that are filled with histamin and heparin that play role in first line immune response against allergens. Degranuation is the process of releasing these granules.
Other than this mast cells or mastocytes also secrete lipid mediators and cytokines. These are activated and secreted in presence of allergen or anaphalyxis response.
How to calculate the heart rate from the electrocardiogram ?
Answer:
ECG paper is a grid where time is measured along the horizontal axis.
Each small square is 1 mm in length and represents 0.04 seconds.
Each larger square is 5 mm in length and represents 0.2 seconds.
Voltage is measured along the vertical axis.
10 mm is equal to 1mV in voltage.
The diagram below illustrates the configuration of ECG graph paper and where to measure the components of the ECG wave form
Heart rate can be easily calculated from the ECG strip:
When the rhythm is regular, the heart rate is 300 divided by the number of large squares between the QRS complexes.
For example, if there are 4 large squares between regular QRS complexes, the heart rate is 75 (300/4=75).
The second method can be used with an irregular rhythm to estimate the rate. Count the number of R waves in a 6 second strip and multiply by 10.
For example, if there are 7 R waves in a 6 second strip, the heart rate is 70 (7x10=70).

a nurse is teaching a pt about fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) for the screening of colorectal cancer, what statement should the nurse include in the teaching
Answer:
you should avoid eating red meat prior to testing
Explanation:
A fecal occult blood testing (FOBT) is a cost-effective, non-invasive method for colon cancer screening, which can be used in asymptomatic patients. The FOBT test is used to identify hidden blood in stool samples, which may be indicative of colon cancer and the presence of polyps in the colon/rectum. It has been shown that screening by FOBT can significantly reduce mortality from colorectal cancer. Two days before the FOBT test, it is imperative to avoid red meats and other foods (e.g., beets, carrots, cauliflower, cucumbers, grapefruit, broccoli, cantaloupe, etc), which might lead to false alarms.

The diversity of both students and faculty poses important considerations for teaching and learning. Reflect on the characteristic differences in gender, race, and culture, as well as the differences among the diverse generations in today’s nursing education classroom. When considering your personal philosophy of teaching, discuss how you might use these characteristic differences and diverse backgrounds and experiences of today’s nursing students as a teaching tool to connect students to nursing content and increase their understanding. In other words, how might you incorporate the background and experiences of your students into your teaching methods to enhance the ability of all students in your classroom to think critically and problem solve patient-care issues?
Answer:
As of 2016, the ethnic breakdown of the United States was 61.3 percent white (non-Hispanic/Latino), 17.8 percent Hispanic/Latinx, 13.3 percent black/African-American, 5.7 percent Asian, 1.3 percent Native American/Alaskan Native, and 2.6 percent reporting two or more races. In the same year, about 70 percent of all nurses were white — significantly more than the general population. African-American and Latinx populations in particular were underrepresented as a proportion of the nursing profession. The contrast was even more stark when considering nursing educators. In 19 states, the percentage of minority nursing students was at least double that of minority faculty.
This disparity can be a barrier to effective nursing education. Studies by respected organizations, such as the Sullivan Commission on Diversity in the Healthcare Workforce, show that educational outcomes improve when nurse educators reflect, value, and celebrate the diverse attributes of the student groups they teach. On the other hand, educational outcomes suffer when nurse educators fail to do these things. Diversity within an organization’s teaching staff is therefore a helpful tool for attracting, retaining, and training enthusiastic and skilled nursing students.
