Intracranial pressure

Patient is alert and oriented to time, place, and person. Patient S is relaxed and responds appropriately to conversation. Pupils are equal, round, and react to light. Eyes open spontaneously to name. Ptosis or face droop is not present. Patient S responds appropriately to conversation and reports troubles hearing. Apical pulse was in the fifth intercostal space with no thrill. Rate was 89 beats per minutes, rhythm regular, S1 and S2 are crisp and not diminished. No extra sounds or murmurs

and blood pressure showed that there is a high increase in pulse rate and in blood pressure after the post-exercise. The pulse rate indicated that as your arteries expand each time the ventricles pump blood out of the heart when exercising, exercise increases cardiovascular system attempting to deliver more oxygen to the muscles. When a person is standing, blood tend to be drawn into the extremities thus the heart will need to pump harder and faster this causes an increase in blood pressure and heart

With technology advancing and new medications being made to help cure or prevent a disease, countless amount of people are on a medication or multiple medication. The person I choose to interview was initials are D.B., who is a male and is in his early 50’s. He is on multiple different medications. The medication that we will be talking about is Lithium Carbonate. Lithium Carbonate is a mood stabilizer. D.B. has been taking Lithium Carbonate for about 5 years. Lithium Carbonate is also known

When your blood pressure goes up drastically then you are looking at high blood pressure. Anyone can have this condition it is when there is an abnormal amount of pressure that is put on your blood vessels and your heart. When it gets really severe you may hear it called hypertension instead. This is the reason you need to go to your doctor regularly to monitor your high blood pressure. High blood pressure is a silent killer to many people. By understanding what causes it and how to monitor your

The thallium scan offers many advantages. It is noninvasive except for the administration of the radioisotope, which involves a radiation dose slightly larger than that received during a chest x-ray, and is extremely accurate. The radionuclide emits 80 keV x-rays they are suitable for scintillation camera imaging. The radioactive isotope thallium 201 behaves physiologically as a potassium analog, and when injected intravenously accumulates rapidly within the cells of many organs. Some scientist

The landmark study for Colanor is the SHIFT Trial. The Shift trial SHIFT was an international, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled outcomes study. Inclusion criteria included stable chronic systolic HF, in sinus rhythm, NYHA class II to IV, with a reduced LVEF (= 35%), a resting heart rate = 70 bpm, and hospitalization for worsening HF within 12 months. Patients received the standard of care for HF including maximally tolerated doses of beta-blockers. The starting dose of

01/15/2015 S: The patient is a 28y/o (years old) c/o myalgia (pain in muscles), episodes of syncope (loss of consciousness), fever, rash of the face and chest, N and V x 2 days (nausea and vomiting for 2 days), and leukorrhea (a discharge of mucus from the vagina). Patient states she experienced dysmenorrhea (painful ministration with abdominal cramps) for the last 5 days and diarrhea (frequent bowel movements in a liquid form) started today. O: BP: 105/62, T: 100.7, R: 22, P: 96, weight 155, height

The failure to progress with parturition shown by this cow is the most common clinical sign seen by cases of uterine torsion (Frazer, et al., 1996). Other clinical signs observed include depression, constipation, vaginal discharge, restlessness and straining (Lyons, et al., 2013). Whilst diagnosis is usually simple, it is imperative in cases of uterine torsion that the direction of torsion is correctly identified. Incorrect diagnosis of direction of torsion will lead to incorrect rotation, worsening

another. The result from the transamination process is that it exchanges amine group on one acid with Ketone group on another acid. Cirrhosis involves a complication in the liver which cause the loss of liver cells and irreversible scarring of the liver. Some of the common causes of the Cirrhosis is the abuse of alcohol fatty liver disease, viral hepatitis B and C. Other possible causes that cause Cirrhosis are Iron buildup in the body, Cystic fibrosis, Copper accumulated in the liver, poorly

has almost no warning signs. Conventional treatments can control blood pressure through the use of prescription drugs. New advances in medicine may offer a better prognosis with a lowered risk of side effects.  The heart pumps blood to all organs of the body, including the brain, by blood vessels. Pressure builds up when the vessels are narrowed by the force of blood pushing against the walls of the arteries. When this pressure is sustained over time, it damages blood vessels and can damage the heart
