to the actin filament forming a cross-bridge. The myosin pulls the actin towards the centre of the sarcomere creating a power stroke. A specific chemical reaction needs to occur in order for the myosin to acquire the sufficient energy to pull the actin filament. A fact from Chemistry gives a greater understanding of the chemical reactions that occur during a power stroke thus giving a greater understanding of the filament interaction from a molecular perspective.

the blood and CO2 from the blood. We done a CT scan which was clear of any brain bleeds that may have caused the stroke. Our Neurologist confirmed this to be a ischemic stroke due to a blood clot on the left side of the brain. When then diagnosed her with Hemiparesis which is weakness to the right side caused by the stroke‚ Hypertension which is high blood pressure‚ and ischemic stroke. We transferred Mrs.Martens to the ICU where she was given a medicine to help break down unwanted blood clots and

The assignment is based upon a critical incident that occurred in clinical practice. Dimond (2008) believes critical incidents allow nurses to explore and reflect on situations in clinical practice which are good or bad‚ which will help them to learn and recognise what‚ could have been done differently. Benner (1984) argues that nurses cannot increase or develop their knowledge to its full potential unless they examine their own practice. Using Driscoll’s (2000) model of reflection the main focus

A stroke occurs when clots form in the brain’s blood vessels blocking blood flow to the brain. This causes the paralysis of much of the body. As a result‚ approximately 61-80% of the body weight has to shift to the unaffected lower extremity‚ leading to an asymmetrical standing position. This type of position causes a decrease in balance and a major disruption in the ability to walk.Foot Drop is when weakness or damage to the common fibular nerve‚ or paralysis of the muscles causes the dropping

(also known as Starling’s law or the Frank–Starling mechanism or Maestrini heart’s law) states that the stroke volume of the heart increases in response to an increase in the volume of blood filling the heart (the end diastolic volume). The increased volume of blood stretches the ventricular wall‚ causing cardiac muscle to contract more forcefully (the so-called Frank-Starling mechanisms). The stroke volume may also increase as a result of greater contractility of the cardiac muscle during exercise‚

I chose to watch the Ted Talk on “My Stroke of Insight” by Jill Bolte Taylor. I found this video interesting. Ms. Taylor had a hemorrhage that caused her to have a brain of an infant. To further explain‚ Ms. Taylor lost all of her knowledge including her speech‚ cognitive skills and so on. I thought it was amazing how someone could be a grown adult‚ but then have brain trauma and it is like they are a baby again. Then to see Ms. Taylor standing and talking to the audience amazes me. How does someone

She was initially admitted with a fall at home and was alert on admission‚ however‚ a week later she had developed aphasia‚ with no limb weakness‚ visual field deficit or facial droop. Thrombolysis therapy‚ which involves dissolving the thrombus with an aim of re-opening the occluded artery was considered. However‚ although her initial CT Head confirmed she had not had a bleed (a contraindication to thrombolysis) she was not a suitable
