What is the Structure of the spinal cord?

Spinal nerve The dorsal roots and ventral roots join to form a spinal nerve. Therefore the spinal nerve is a mixed nerve, as it carries both sensory and motor neurons. What is the structure of the spinal cord? The colored lines are either a sensory or motor neuron. The cell bodies are the circles in a nerve.

Fluid/Electrolyte & Acid-Base Balance

Pick 2 of the bulleted prompts below to write about in this week’s reflection. Unit 10 – Fluid/Electrolyte & Acid-Base Balance. Discuss normal body water content in the fluid compartments and electrolyte composition/movement between the fluid compartments.

  • Explain the regulation of water balance within the body.
  • Explain the roles and regulation of electrolytes and electrolyte balance within the body.
  • Explain the regulation of Acid-Base balance within the body.
  • Discuss 4 homeostatic imbalances of fluid and electrolytes and what is occurring physiologically in a person with the condition.

The Acute Respiratory Care Unit of UMMC

You are an advanced-level RRT working in the Acute Respiratory Care Unit of UMMC with pulmonologist Jessica Spano, MD. Your patient is Dr. John Carter, a 56-year-old white retired manager of Wal-Mart, who is known to have COPD and is on continual oxygen by nasal prongs.

He has smoked two packs a day for his adult life. Last night, he was unable to sleep because increased shortness of breathe and cough. His cough produced yellow sputum. He has to sit upright in bed to be able to breathe. VS are T 101.6 F, P 98, R 36, BP 150/90. On examination, he is cyanotic and frightened and has nasal prongs in his nose. Air entry is diminished in both lungs, and there are crackles at both bases.

You have been ordered to draw blood for ABGs and to measure the amount of air entering and leaving his lungs by using spirometry.

    1. Nurse b. physical therapist c. physician d. respiratory therapist

 

  1. What is another name for nasal “prongs”? A
    1. Cannula b. ventilator c. respirator d. intubation

 

  1. The medical term for “shortness of breath” is
