In a recent ruling in 2009, Anthony M. Kennedy took part in a 6-3 ruling with other justices in the case of Wyeth v. Levine. Diane Levine filed a personal injury claim against a drug manufacturer named Wyeth, stating that because they had failed to properly label their product her arm had to be amputated. The plaintiff injected Phenergan, a drug used to prevent allergies and motion sickness into her arm. Due to complications from this injection, her arm had to be amputated. The Supreme Court of Vermont ruled in favor of the plaintiff (Ms. Levine). The court confirmed that the FDA imply provides the ground work for regulation in each state but each state is free to create stricter labeling requirements.…
Coronary artery disease is one of the most prominent forms of heart disease. It occurs when the coronary arteries that supply the heart blood become narrowed, and eventually occluded. This narrowing typically takes place because of plaque build up due to cholesterol and other fatty substances being ingested, also called atherosclerosis. This thickening of the artery wall can take many years, eventually completely inhibiting blood flow. Because the blood flow has stopped, little oxygen gets to the heart, and the myocardial cells therefore die. This is when a heart attack ensues, also called a myocardial infarction.…
Marian suffered from a heat stroke causing her body to experience hyperthermia. Marian body went through the process of homeostasis from experiencing hyperthermia. “Homeostasis is a state of body equilibrium or stable internal environment of the body.”(Marieb 8) Homeostasis protects the body by allowing it to adapt to the environment. Marian homeostasis tried to cool the body but failed. Though Marian was lucky her daughter found her in time. When a heat stroke occurs the body’s homeostasis shuts down where the temperature can reach high enough to cause brain damage to where you die. Heat strokes can cause damage internally well as externally. Hyperthermia causes a positive feedback mechanism within the body. “A positive feedback mechanism is a feedback that tends to cause the level of variable to change in the same direction as an initial change.”( Marieb 9) When the body stimulus rises the hypothalamus’s thermoreceptors start to work as the body’s thermostat. The thermoreceptors send messages allowing the hypothalamus to make temperature changes in the core. When the core starts to raise the heat loss mechanism starts one or two things: “dilation of cutaneous blood vessels or enhanced sweating.”(Marieb 833) “Dilation of cutaneous blood vessels is where the vessels swell with warm blood, heat is lost from the radiation, conduction, and convection” (Marieb 833) Some symptoms for a heat stroke are “throbbing headache, dizziness and light-headedness, lack of sweating despite the heat, red hot skin, muscle weakness or cramps, nausea and vomiting, rapid heartbeat, which may either strong or weak, rapid shallow breathing, behavioral changes such as confusion, disorientation or staggering, seizures, and unconsciousness.”( http://firstaid.webmd.com/heat-stroke-symptoms-and-treatment)…

MHTs are employed at State mental health facilities, substance abuse clinics, and large or small private facilities. There have been plenty of news reports and movie made showing the dark side of working in these facilities, whether State run or private. Images of mental health workers selling drugs to their patients, engaging in relationships with those under their care, physically and mentally mistreating patients are just the fraction of the dark side within the mental health field. Mental Health Technicians and aides must have a standard of care for themselves and those that they are there to help. Mental Health workers must also be able to communicate with their patients and supervisors of any hint of inappropriate…
