Of the three types of muscle cells, skeletal muscle cells are the most recognizable as muscles because skeletal muscles are the type used in voluntary movement. Skeletal muscles cells are some of the most distinct differentiated cells in the human body, this distinction is likely because of the clear and specific purpose in the body of being the source of contractions that allow voluntary movement. I chose skeletal muscle cells because it’s fascinating to me how movement of the body is such a…

appears in the early childhood years and will worsen rapidly after that. Those who are affected will have delayed motor skills such as sitting and walking. DMD is also associated with a heart condition known as cardiomyopathy. This disease weakens the cardiac muscle which in this case. Prevents the heart from pumping blood. Symptoms of a dilated cardiomyopathy can include an irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath and extreme…

The article that I choose was called “Targeted Temperature Management at 33°C versus 36°C after Cardiac Arrest”. The objective of the article was to find at which temperature was it better to induce hypothermia on a patient who had gone into cardiac arrest in an out-of-hospital scenario to prevent neurological damage and the. The researchers hoped that if by inducing hypothermia early on after the cardiac arrest and loss of consciousness there would be little to no brain damage. The researchers…

The article “The Subcategories of the Major Tissue Types in Anatomy and Physiology” by Robert Mullis talks about the different kind of major tissues in the human body. Tissue is a group of similar cells working together. There are four types of tissue that do different things: Epithelial, Connective,Muscle and Nervous. For example, the essential functions of epithelial tissues are secretion, absorption, protection, filtration, and excretion. Epithelial tissues are full of sensory receptors that…

How big are your spiritual muscles? Every body builder knows there are just three primary exercises to gain size and strength. Squat, dead lift and bench press. Do these three consistently and you'll gain size and strength. Building a relationship with God is much the same. There are really just three major components to building a relationship with God: Prayer, Bible study and Church. #1- Prayer... Prayer is communication with God. Every relationship is built on communication. When…

Over a three-week period thirteen patients on the night shift suffered violent seizures that where followed by cardiac and respiratory arrest. Of the thirteen nine of the patients died and the nurses described the patients’ seizures to be similar to grand mal seizures that epileptics suffer. Seizures usually do not occur in cardiac patients. Soon after the cardiac care/ intensive care unit Community Hospital of the Valleys closed and the defendant took a job at San Gorgonio Pass Hospital…

The muscular system function is that it allows movement of body parts, and works with skeletal system to help us move. Major muscles types : There are many muscles in the muscular system. Some are skeletal, smooth, and cardiac muscle. The skeletal muscle, smooth muscle, and cardiac muscle can stretch and contract, but they complete different functions. The skeletal muscle is attached to your skeleton by strong, springy tendons or is directly connected to rough patches of bone. The skeletal…

The neuroprotective systems of medically induced hypothermia are presently broadly perceived and executed as a standard of care. When time is of extreme importance, medical attendants should have the capacity to settle on educated choices with a since of direness at during key moments to ensure a patient is effectively cooled and rewarmed without significant trauma. In the midst of the moderately occasional, yet developing information, it is trusted that utilizing a nursing checklist to…

you are older does not mean you are experiencing worse symptom than the younger patients. Older patients experience cardiac problems more regularly. 38.5% of people that received an icd were 70 years or older, only 7% were 80 and older. The only that your age as to do with is death (Yung et al, 2013). “For example, among those undergoing ICD implantation for prevention of cardiac arrest, 2 in every 100 patients ages 18-49 died whereas 10 in 100 died among those 80 years and older.” as stated in…

According to the American Heart Association (2015), each year over 320,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) occur and as a result are one of the leading causes of death in the United States. With the frequent occurrence of such a life-threatening event, it is essential to understand the proper way to react. Cardiac arrests can be separated into three groups; ventricular fibrillation/tachycardia (VF/ VT), pulseless electrical activity (PEA), and asystole…
