Gauze

sounded kind of like it was trying to say, "Go away!" but I couldn't tell because of the gauze that covered its entire being from head to toe. These eyes glared down at me with such an intensity that I could not stop myself from muttering, "Oops." That was when I noticed its hands. Chipped, pointy nails as long as my fingers dawned on me. It was obviously trying to decapitate me. I saw a loose end of its gauze covering flapping at its side. Without thinking my risky escape plan through, I…

Using a 250 cm^3 measuring cylinder, measure out 200 cm^3 of water and transfer it to the beaker. Record the mass of the water. Place the beaker of water on top of the metal gauze, so that it is above the spirit lamp. Using a metal stand and a clamp, hold a temperature…

My friend came over and put her hands under my eyebrow to help catch the blood. Right then my coaches game over with some gauze and put it on my cut. They both took me and led me down to the athletic training room. The hallway felt so long, I was dizzy and couldn’t see because my glasses were knocked off on impact. Finally we got to the training room. I felt so hot and sick…

running water she called out to her husband, "Earle, can you please get me one of those wonderful bandages you make. "This is the last one and we don't even have anymore gauze or cotton, so you better not get hurt again until I can get my hands on some more," I said handing her a piece of cotton on some adhesive tape and gauze. "I'll try to get some from work today, if James isn't breathing down my neck again, like he was yesterday." "Do you mind if you finished making your sandwhich, I hope…

My time as a Veterinary Technician taught me many things. From how to draw shots to how to take x-rays. One of the most common lessons I learned was how to spay a female canine. Although the Veterinarian is the only one allowed to be “hands-in” during surgery, I learned a lot from watching the procedure. Surgery preparations begin the day before. The patient in question is dropped off and spends the night. Vet Techs are busy cleaning and “cooking” surgical tools and cutting drapes. Also,…

In “The Harlem Dancer,” Claude McKay describes a woman who is performing to a crowd of youths through the eyes of an audience member. The narrator seems to be explaining everything that has to do with her body and appearance, rather than what she is actually thinking. He later realizes that she is unhappy while performing, though it is still unknown as to what the dancer is thinking. The use of tone and diction reveals that she is actually distancing herself from her reality due the traumatic…

dressing is VAC replacing? Conventional wet to dry dressing is used for debridement of a wound bed. Once the saline soaked gauze dries, it is pulled and the dead along with healthy tissue is removed, causing pain to the patient. Wet to dry dressings are contraindicated because of allowing bacteria to penetrate. Fleck, 2009, indicates that bacterial can cross 64 layers of gauze. So why still use it? It is a good question, which will be addressed at a later…

With an ever changing and evolving healthcare system, leaders must be purvey to complexity of the nature of the advancing field. According to Weberg (2012), traditional leaders know how to apply known to solutions to known problems, but in healthcare the answers are seldomly known and issues are hard to identify before they occur. Weberg’s article, “Complexity Leadership: A Healthcare Imperative,” attempts to explain how traditional leadership skills are no match for healthcare and the effects…
