Shock Shock is a syndrome characterized by decreased tissue perfusion and impaired cellular metabolism. This results in an imbalance between the supply of and demand for oxygen and nutrients. The exchange of oxygen and nutrients at the cellular level is essential to life. When a cell experiences a state of hypoperfusion‚ the demand for oxygen and nutrients exceeds the supply at the microcirculatory level. Classification of Shock The four main categories of shock are * cardiogenic‚: *

EXERCISE 9 - Mechanical properties of solid and fluid mechanics 1. A stainless-steel wire of length 3.1 cm and a diameter of 0.22 mm. If it is stretched by 0.10 mm‚ find the tension of the wire. The Young’s modulus for stainless steel is 18 × 1010 Pa. 22 N 2. Determine the elongation of the rod i Figure 1 if it is under a tension of 5.8 × 103 N. Young’s Modulus: Copper‚ 11.0 x 1010 Nm-2‚ Aluminium 7.0 x 1010 Nm-2 1.9 cm 3. Air is trapped above liquid ethyl alcohol in

Sepsis; pathophysiology‚ etiology and treatment Abstract To define the disease known as sepsis‚ briefly discuss its pathophysiology‚ etiology‚ signs‚ symptoms‚ and treatments. Outline protocols for sepsis screening‚ early directed goal therapy‚ and to establish the nurse’s role in the process. Sepsis is a complex disease‚ or response to a disease process that can lead to patient mortality rates up to 60%. Gram negative infectious organisms invade the blood stream‚ and activate a systemic

ABOUT ORAL FLUID DRUG TESTING N3 Fact #1 – The use of oral fluid testing is growing each year.1 Oral fluid drug testing in the workplace is relatively new compared to laboratory-based urine testing. But in a fairly short period of time it has become the testing method of choice for many companies. While it will not meet the needs of every employer‚ because of its unique advantages it will appeal to many

Fluid and Electrolyte Imbalance Paper Julia Peterson University of Akron Introduction Homeostasis of fluid and electrolyte balance is important for the body to be able to function. The nursing student will cover the risk‚ pathology‚ and signs and symptoms for both fluid deficit and hypokalemia. The nursing student will also apply these findings to the patient specific information from the clinical day February 8‚ 2011. This will give her the ability to formulate four different nursing diagnosis

Basic equations of fluid statics | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An equation representing pressure field P = P (x‚ y‚ z) within fluid at rest is derived in this section. Since the fluid is at rest‚ we can define the pressure field in terms of space dimensions (x‚ y and z) only. Consider a fluid element of rectangular parellopiped shape( Fig : L - 7.1) within a large fluid region which is at rest. The forces acting on the element are body and surface forces. | | Body force

The history of the intravenous therapy is less than a century old. Yet‚ it is well known that medication could be injected directly into the vein as early as the 1600’s‚ because of the lack of scientific methods‚ original attempts to deliver IV fluids and drugs met with little success. Two world wars brought in the era of modern IV therapy. However‚ the greatest advance in drugs‚ equipment‚ and procedures has occurred in the past 25 years. The first intravenous injections were experimented with in
