In today’s modern world the situation in society usually reflects back the state of the government and policy-making institutes. High crime rates‚ poor living conditions‚ poverty‚ malnutrition indicate state’s failure and degradation. It is a widely distributed case when the state of living is so poor that people have no choice but resort to crime to make a living. The state in this case is supposed to fail in providing a good community with jobs‚ appropriate living standards and thriving economy

Chronic renal failure is a worldwide public health problem. Millions of Americans are affected by this disease each year. It is a common condition in which there is progressive loss of kidney functioning. The loss of function usually takes months or years to occur‚ sometime not appearing until kidney function is less than one-tenth of normal. The kidneys have the important job of filtering‚ wastes and excess fluids from your blood‚ which are then excreted in the urine (Huether‚ 2012). When the kidneys

I work in the respiratory system department. There are five more interesting facts I would like to share with you about my department. The first is that there are four processes that make up respiration: pulmonary ventilation‚ external respiration‚ transport of respiratory gases‚ and internal respiration. It also consist of two zones: the respiratory zone and the conducting zone. The respiratory zone is the actual site of gas exchange. The conducting zone is all the other respiratory passageways that

Managing Heart Failure Carla Vossen‚ SPN Kristin Madigan RN‚ BSN NURS 1300: Research Project South Central College November 23‚ 2009 Heart failure is a chronic and progressive syndrome‚ resulting from the inability of the heart muscle to pump with enough force to meet the metabolic demands of the body. (Buckler‚13) According to the Center for Disease Control; (CDC) there are approximately five million people in the United States that have heart failure. Approximately 550 thousand people

Title: the mechanism of carbon dioxide and oxygen exchange in the respiratory of human Abstract The purpose of the experiment is to determine gas exchange activity in the respiratory system of human. The first lab for comparing the room and breathe temperature was to understand the function of the nasal cavity where the gas passed after an inhalation. The second lab for changing of chest circumference and abdomen circumference between inspiration and expiration was to know how the air moved in

Systolic and Diastolic Heart Failure Heart failure occurs when the heart cannot pump enough blood for the body due to a weakened or damaged heart. The heart’s pumping action moves oxygen-rich blood as it travels from the lungs to the left atrium‚ then on to the left ventricle‚ which pumps it to the rest of the body. The left ventricle supplies most of the heart’s pumping power‚ so it’s larger than the other chambers and essential for normal function. (American Heart Association). In left-sided

body system there are homeostatic imbalances and one for the cardiac system is heart failure. Heart failure on the left side can happen in two ways‚ systolic heart failure and diastolic heart failure. A systolic heart failure is when the left ventricle cannot contract normally‚ which causes a decreased amount of oxygenated blood in the body because the heart cannot pump the blood efficiently. A diastolic heart failure is when the left ventricle cannot relax normally. This is because the heart muscle
