I.DEFINITION/PREVALENCE Acute disease of the GI tract may be caused by the pathogen itself or by a bacterial or other toxin. Acute inflammatory disorders such as appendicitis and peritonitis result from contamination of damaged or normally sterile tissue by a client’s own endogenous or resident bacteria (Lemone and Burke‚ 2008‚ page 766).

them knows exactly what is wrong with him‚ they only told him that it was probably and ulcer. An ulcer starts by eroding the mucosa of the G.I. tract wall. Absorption would not happen correctly‚ some of the ingested and secreted may seep out of the lumen. This also could create a pathway of entry for pathogens if the ulcer ate through to the muscularis mucosa and also lose some control of defecation. This is why Zachary may be bleeding when he uses the bathroom. If the ulcer eats a hole into the

Introduction The dissection of the fetal pig in the laboratory is important because pigs and humans have the same level of metabolism and have similar organs and systems. Also‚ fetal pigs are a byproduct of the pork food industry so they aren ’t raised for dissection purposes‚ and they are relatively inexpensive. Procedure - as in the text book Purpose: The purpose of such activity is to dissect the fetal pig and observe various organs. Materials: Safety goggles String Dissecting pins Lab

This care study aims to outline the care provided to a patient during one 12hour shift. It will present the patients cause and course of ICU admission‚ identify problems both potential and actual‚ focussing particularly and two main problems. The nursing interventions preformed will be critically analysed and supported with research. Finally the care will be critically evaluated areas of possible improvement will be outlined.

When a patient cannot control their airway‚ or cannot perform the act of respiration without assistance‚ the need for endotracheal intubation may arise. The practice of endotracheal intubation has been shown to provide a safe and patent airway‚ which can be mechanically ventilated when necessary. The use of an endotracheal tube also protects the patient by preventing aspiration when used correctly‚ and provides an extra rout for medication administration. The use of endotracheal tubes is very
