When listening to the patient I would expect to hear crackles and wheezing. 2. Normal oxygen saturation is 95% to 100%. 3.Since the patient does have a history of diabetes and asthma‚ he has a higher risk of contracting viruses due to the fact that diabetes lowers your immune response‚ and asthma causes your airway to become more sensitive.

DECISIONS SERIES Oxygen Saturation A Guide to Laboratory Assessment BY SHANNON HAYMOND‚ PHD uman life depends on the oxygen transport by hemoglobin. In healthy patients‚ the majority of molecular oxygen (O2) is bound to hemoglobin and only a small fraction is dissolved in blood. But in patients with respiratory problems or certain metabolic and genetic disorders‚ the fraction of oxygenated hemoglobin can fall to dangerously low values. Therefore‚ laboratory assessment of oxygen saturation (SO2)—the percentage

NORMAL LEVEL-TWO ULTRASOUND SCAN Ultrasound examination during should include a systematic evaluation of fetal anatomy. Apart from anencephaly‚ the fetal organs cannot be accurately measured before 17-18 weeks of gestation. After 30-35 weeks‚ evaluation becomes increasingly difficult. Hence level-two ultrasound scan is done at 18 to 20 weeks of gestation. CLASSIFICATION OF FETAL SONOGRAPHIC EXAMINATIONS 1. First-Trimester Ultrasound 2.

Saturation of landfill In the densely populated city of Hong Kong‚ where land resources are rare‚ waste is a troublesome issue. According to the Hong Kong Environmental Protection Department(EDP) Hong Kong is running out of landfill space far earlier than expected‚ and the existing landfills will be filled up‚ one by one‚ in mid to late 2010s if waste levels continue to increase at current levels.) Unless solutions are identified immediately‚ we could face a crisis in the next decade of having

police-patrol programs each year. In Tennessee‚ a study on saturation patrol reliability was conducted. It was analyzed through the results of patrols during the day and night. A saturation patrol is a method that involves multiple officers placed in specific locations that have high rates of DUI cases. Enforcing more saturation patrols will eventually lessen the possibility of alcohol-impaired driving of a community. Conducting more saturation patrols will result in having more control of stopping multiple

SATURATION LINE OF WATER/STEAM INTRODUCTION When water is heated to steam‚ they are in thermal contact‚ are said to be saturated. The water is called saturated because it cannot absorb more energy without changing into steam‚ and the steam is called saturated vapor because it cannot absorb any more energy unless temperature increase and it becomes superheated. AIM: The aim of this laboratory is to find a mathematical model for the saturation curve for water/steam. APPARATUS The apparatus

Oxygen Oxygen and its compounds play a key role in many of the important processes of life and industry. Oxygen in the biosphere is essential in the processes of respiration and metabolism‚ the means by which animals derive the energy needed to sustain life. Furthermore‚ oxygen is the most abundant element at the surface of the Earth. In combined form it is found in ores‚ earths‚ rocks‚ and gemstones‚ as well as in all living organisms. Oxygen is a gaseous chemical element in Group VA of the periodic

When I first visited the campus it definitely caught my eye because of its beautiful colors and soothing sound. Since my time attending Biola‚ I have discovered that the best time to sit next to the Flour Fountain is at night. As I sit at the metal tables‚ I take out my Bible and begin reading the book of Exodus in order to

Oxygen – Carbon dioxide Cycle The Carbon Dioxide- Oxygen Cycle relates to the relationship between Carbon Dioxide [CO2] breathing plants and Oxygen [O2] breathing life forms. All oxygen-breathing life forms take in Oxygen and exhale CO2. Plants take in the CO2 and use it in their photosynthesis process and in turn give off oxygen. The Carbon Dioxide-Oxygen Cycle is a continuously occurring process whereby animals inhale Oxygen and then exhale carbon dioxide‚ and plants use the CO2 and "exhale"
