Respiratory Case Study The following case study is of a 37-year old Hispanic male weighing 145 lbs and 70 inches tall found unconscious by his girlfriend. According to her he was unconscious for about 15 hours and she was concerned because he would not wake or respond and was breathing shallow and slow. She then called 9-1-1. The patient entered the ER by emergency vehicle and on my initial assessment Pt had an altered mental status‚ was very unresponsive showing symptoms of a possible drug overdose

Molar Volume of a Gas – 10/27/08 Alic Albright‚ Josh Coleman‚ Dan Boden‚ Zach Babin Purpose: The pupose of this lab was to make an experimental determination of a molar volume through reaction of the substance shown: Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) > MgCl(aq) + H(g) Introduction: In this lab‚ a magnesium ribbon and HCl are combined in a gas measuring tube. When they are combined they form magnesium chloride and Hydrogen gas. The molar ratio between Mg reacted and

of German Volume Training German Volume Training isn’t rocket science. There’s no elaborate formulas to figure out‚ and no training techniques to be mastered. GVT is built around three simple‚ core principles: 1. One Exercise. You perform one exercise per body part. That’s it. Stick with heavier‚ compound-style lifts that tax major muscle groups. Because you will be performing a limited number ofexercises per week‚ proper exercise selection is critical in maximizing the effects of GVT.

General care was the right place for me to start for clinicals. It taught me the basic techniques a respiratory therapist needs. When I first began clinicals‚ it was difficult for me to learn new techniques and procedures for respiratory therapies. I struggled to take them from a procedure learned in a book or on the Mayo Intranet and figure how to apply it when I was with a patient. We did have labs to help us get hands on experience with the therapies but I still didn’t feel confident when entering

Background Information: Enzymes such as catalase are globular protein molecules with catalytic properties. A catalyst is a substrate which can alter the rate of reaction without itself undergoing any permanent change. As they are not changed

Volume-variety and design In Chapter 1 the four V’s of operations were described. These were volume‚ variety‚ variation and visibility. The first two of these – volume and variety – are particularly important when considering design issues in operations management. Not only do they usually go together (high variety usually means low volume‚ high volume normally means low variety) but together they also impact on the nature of products and services and processes which produce them. The volume and

Asthma Asthma is a respiratory disease. Asthma has a high reactivity of the bronchial tubes to various stimuli and that reaction blocks air flow by narrowing and obstructing the trachea and lungs. (Woollbert‚ Robert‚ 1996) This causes difficulty breathing‚ and while it’s normally temporary and reversible it can still be life threatening. Normally a person with Asthma has triggers. There are two main sections triggers fall under‚ a viral illness or an allergy. A viral illness is

Respiratory acidosis is a condition where body is unable to eliminate all the carbon dioxide within the lungs; this condition results with the body fluids becoming too acidic usually within the patient’s blood. The PCO2 of respiratory acidosis is greater than 45mmHg and the pH would be less than 7.36. (Graham‚ T. (2006). Respiratory alkalosis is when the levels of carbon dioxide in the blood‚ mainly due to breathing excessively are too low. Levels of respiratory alkalosis is a PCO2 of less than 35
