2013 The Diesel Engine: Making a Comeback The diesel engine has provided the world with cheap and efficient power for over one hundred years. The invention was first thought up by Rudolph Diesel in 1892. He wanted to create an engine that would be more efficient than the steam engine‚ which was only 12% efficient. He filed for a patent in Germany in February of 1892. He was granted a patent for a “Working Method and Design for Combustion Engines...new efficient‚ thermal engine” (History). With

Heat stroke: The person’s cooling system‚ controlled by the brain‚ stops working and the internal body temperature rises to the point at which brain damage or damage to other internal organs may result (temperature may reach 105 F or greater [40.5 C or greater]). Stay hydrated as prevention is the key. Develops rapidly. Heat stroke happens in the following two ways: The classic form occurs in people whose cooling mechanisms

Free Brain Stroke Hypertension
Clinical Feature A stroke is a serious medical situation that normally befalls when a clot within the blood has clogged the flow of blood to the brain. When the brain fails to get the blood and the suitable quantity of oxygen‚ the brain cells literally die. Brain cell function necessitates a continuous delivery of oxygen and glucose from the bloodstream. The deficiency of oxygen and glucose rolling to the brain leads to the death of brain cells and brain impairment‚ often occasioning in impairment

Strokes are a sudden illness that always require immediate medical attention to lessen the chances of permanent damage to a victim. They occur when oxygen and nutrients fail to reach the brain cells due to a blockage in blood supply‚ causing cells to die. Depending on which parts of the brain blood flow is interrupted to and for how long‚ function can be severely impaired in a patient. Without quick care and treatment strokes can lead to brain death. Strokes are classified into two major categories:

management of dysphagia in stroke patients whether in long term or acute care is an important care delivery that nurses must pay close attention to.
