the following: * To be able to identify the parts of the respiratory system and identify the function of each. * Determine the different factors that affect the normal breathing process. * To be able to make and use an improvised spirometer and measure respiratory volumes. Studying and observing respiration through proper understanding of the respiratory system is very important because it gives us knowledge on how it works and makes us realize that this system should be taken

Diagnosis 1. Acute pain R/T: inflammation and obstruction of the gallbladder AEB: patient verbalizes abdominal pain of 7/10‚ grimaces‚ rubs his stomach‚ BP 158/79‚ T990F 2. Deficient knowledge R/T: lack of knowledge about the importance of incentive spirometer AEB: patient says that he does not know how to use and needs to know more about its importance. 3. Risk for deficient fluid volume R/T: restricted intake 4. Risk for imbalanced nutrition less than body requirement R/T: impaired fat digestion

Bloom Research and Response Paper Benjamin Bloom developed Bloom’s Taxonomy in 1956. It identifies three domains: cognitive‚ affective‚ and psychomotor‚ used to evaluate knowledge assimilated by the learner. Each domain has hierarchical categories that progressively measure the level of understanding achieved. This paper reviews each domain and list the categories found within‚ discuss how Bloom’s taxonomy apply to the case study presented by Larkin and Burton’s article ‘Evaluating a Case Study

The Respiratory System At the end of this topic students will be able to: • Compare the respiratory systems • Describe the mechanic of respiration - Air passage principals - Ventilation - Lung volume and respiration cycle - Respiration rate • Explain gas exchange - Partial pressure - Oxygen separation curve • Discriminate gas transportation - Oxygen and carbon dioxide Respiration : - all processes that accomplish movement of O2 from the environment to the tissues - has 2 components : a)

Chemoembolization is a procedure that combines chemotherapy and embolization. Medicines that stop or slow the growth of cancer cells (chemotherapy) are delivered directly to a tumor‚ through a blood vessel. At the same time‚ a type of medicine or a synthetic material (embolic agent) is put into the blood vessel to create a blockage (embolization). This cuts off blood supply to the tumor and traps the chemotherapy in place. The goal of this procedure is to slow or stop the growth of a cancerous

Respiration * Respiration * Gas exchange * Necessary because cells require oxygen. * Exchanging O2 and CO2 * Carbon Dioxide is a waste product and must be removed from the body. * Internal respiration = gas exchange at the cellular level. * Oxygen diffuses from the blood into the tissue cells. * External respiration = gas exchange at the alveoli level. * Oxygen from the inhaled air diffuses into the blood in the pulmonary

lung capacity than men‚ and that athletes have a larger lung capacity than average people. This experiment will test 10 people in the same room‚ in the same conditions; therefore the variable of air composition is controlled. In this experimental a spirometer will be used to measure the volumes defined above and the breathing rate.
