    Calcium Channel Blockers, in this case verapamil, could be used in a patient that has high blood pressure as well as other concerns such as chest pain, or abnormal heart rhythm. In any case the patient needs to be monitored because verapamil relaxes and widens the blood vessels in the arterial walls causing the blood pressure to drop and in some cases the heart rate to decrease also lowering the blood pressure. Therefore, a patient should be monitored regularly to ensure that the blood pressure does not drop too low. A low blood pressure could cause dizziness, nausea, headaches, fainting, and more seriously could cause damage to the patient’s heart or brain if not enough oxygen is received.…

    The term “healthcare simulation” can describe a broad range of simulation experiences. Chiniara and colleagues define healthcare simulation as an instructional medium used for education, assessment, and research, which includes several modalities that have in common the reproduction of certain characteristics of clinical reality. Simulation in healthcare is becoming increasingly common and provides a valuable learning experience to the user. With this widespread growth of simulation comes the need for instructional design to assist educators in developing appropriate simulation experiences for the target audience. In this article, Chiniara and colleagues provide a framework for instructional design that divides the educational experience into…

    Calcium in the diet of a teenager is absorbed in the small intestine and transferred to the intestinal capillaries. It diffuses into the bloodstream through the gastric vein into the hepatic vein and then through the common iliac vein into the superior/inferior vena cava that brings the blood into the right atrium of the heart. The sinoatrial node which is located in the right atrial wall, would send an electrical impulse through the heart, causing it to contract. This would then trigger the AV node (which is located between the septum between two atria) to contract as well. When the AV node contracts it sends an impulse through the AV bundle and into the purkinje fibers (which in return causes the entire heart to contract). After going through the right atrium, when the heart contracts it opens up the tricuspid valve, therefore pushing the calcium into the right ventricle. When the heart contracts again (SA node contracts again through AV bundle and purkinje fibers) it causes the pulmonary semilunar valve to open and enters the pulmonary trunk and pulmonary arteries which then brings the blood into the lungs. Then it goes through a systemic loop (the tissue capillaries of the lungs) , which takes the now oxygenated blood and returns to the heart via the pulmonary veins from the lungs. Then from the pulmonary veins the blood enters the left atrium (SA node will contract, causing AV node to contract, sending impulse through the AV bundle, ending at the purkinje fibers) and…

    Acute coronary syndromes. Following disruption of a vulnerable plaque, patients experience ischemic discomfort resulting from a reduction of flow through the affected epicardial coronary artery. The flow reduction may be caused by a completely occlusive thrombus (right) or subtotally occlusive thrombus (left). Patients with ischemic discomfort may present with or without ST-segment elevation. Of patients with ST-segment elevation, the majority (wide red arrow) ultimately develop a Q wave on the ECG (QwMI), while a minority (thin red arrow) do not develop Q wave and, in older literature, were said to have sustained a non-Q-wave MI (NQMI). Patients who present without ST-segment elevation are suffering from either unstable angina or a non-ST-segment elevation MI (NSTEMI) (wide green arrows), a distinction that is ultimately made on the presence or absence of a serum cardiac marker such as CKMB or a cardiac troponin detected in the blood. The majority of patients presenting with NSTEMI do not develop a Q wave on the ECG; a minority develop a QwMI (thin green arrow).…

    Drug Design

    A drug is a substance that we used mostly in our daily lives. It is a chemical substance with physiological effects when ingested or introduced into our bodies. The response produce can either be beneficial or harmful. Toxins and poisons can be classified as drugs. This report the term ‘drug’ is for medicinal or pharmaceutical purposes. Drugs used to prevent or treat diseases. Drug design also known as rational drug design is the creative process of discovering or finding a new drug based on the knowledge of a biological target. Modern drug discovery involves the identification of screening hits, medicinal chemistry and optimization of those hits to increase the affinity, selectivity (to reduce the potential of side effects), efficacy/potency, metabolic stability (to increase the half-life), and oral bioavailability. Once a compound that fulfils all of these requirements has been identified, it will begin the process of drug development prior to clinical trials. One or more of these steps may, but not necessarily, involve computer-aided drug design.…
