In this particular essay, I am going to address the routes of administration of methamphetamines, and the physical and mental effects of meth. What exactly is methamphetamine? I am so glad that you asked, methamphetamine is “a synthetic drug with more rapid and lasting effects than amphetamine, used illegally as a stimulant and as a prescription drug to treat narcolepsy and maintain blood pressure.” The people who were responsible for manufacturing methamphetamine, were the biker gangs (Inaba 3.24). Typically, these bikers worked with people called “street chemist.” The street chemist were the people who produced the meth. How did they produce it? Meth was produced by, rock salt, battery acid, coffee filters, plastic tubing, an empty 2-liter soda bottle, and even more! (Inaba 3.24). There is a big difference from making and producing meth. As an example, meth can be made on a stovetop, and of course by chemicals. According to the DEA “there are more than 300 ways to manufacture methamphetamine using pseudoephedrine.” The question of all questions, who was affected by the use of methamphetamine the most? Younger males were affected the most, it is known that the use took place in organized events (Inaba 3.24). For example, places such as clubs. Research has shown that both AIDS/HIV increased a tremendous amount in the gay community, due to the use of methamphetamine (Inaba 3.24). There are many routes of administration for the usage of methamphetamine. Note well, that…
after acepromazine. The route of administration and doses of atropine and ketamine were same as in group A. 2.1. Laparoscopy and Vasectomy The laparoscopy was performed using standard procedure (4). The intra-peritoneal organs along with the vas deferens were examined visually. The vas deferens was identified by its characteristic ivory-coloured cord-like structure emerging from the internal inguinal ring and passing deep towards the neck of urinary bladder. A 60 watt monopolar current was used…
Numerous articles support either modality. The research will be based on the analysis of the different articles and criticising the validity of each argument. They both share similarities in the patient preparation. CT colonography as well as barium enema require bowel preparation, the bowel need to be free from any faeces as its presence can mimic pathology and impair diagnosis. CT colonography offers cross sectional images and allows three dimensional reconstruction. This feature results in…
measurement. A manometry test is usually done on older children and adults. The doctor inflates a balloon inside the rectum. The muscle that surrounds should relax accordingly. Otherwise, Hirschsprung disease could be the cause. • Removing a sample of colon tissue for testing (biopsy). This is the safest way to identify Hirschsprung disease. A biopsy sample can be collected using a suction device, and then examined under a microscope to determine whether the nerve cells are missing. Procedure:…
properties. Some chemists claim that the ozone gas mixture is toxic, whereas others state that it is useful and effective when used in certain situations such as treating degenerative disease. Ozone therapy has been used effectively in medical practices through nine methods that are: 1. Intramuscular injections: A small amount of an ozone and oxygen mixture are injected into the patient. It is used to treat allergies and inflammatory diseases. They are sometimes utilized as an adjunct to…
CPR Mask Response Heart disease and sudden cardiac arrests in people around the world are rapidly on the increase due to a number of health problems. Knowing how to address the situation on how to perform CPR including the removal of the ventilation mask from the packaging to applying the mask correctly and performing the CPR correctly can be the difference between life and death. When a single rescuer without any CPR training when faced with the problem of performing CPR can face many…
symptoms become troublesome or FVC falls under 50% non-invasive ventilation can be commenced for patients with MND to maintain proper air flow into the lungs (Oliver, 2008). NIV improves quality of life and prolongs life of MND patients (Rafiq et al., 2012). When the effectiveness of NIV is not sufficient to alleviate respiratory symptoms, Tracheostomy and mechanical ventilation (TMV) maybe considered, however it necessary to discuss this with MND patients before it is necessary, as TMV is…
We believe that the technique we present is a novel one and not described previously. Our technique for prevention of stenosis after LSG, utilizes routine intra operative endoscopy to visualize the gastric lumen after the staple line has been over-sewn. After insufflation, we try to evaluate the tube for any excessive curve at the level of the incisura angularis. Any visualized excessive curve is corrected by fixing the lesser curvature at that level to the gastro-hepatic ligament. During this…
ability to keep track of its use. Second to oral appliances, nasal appliances are available as well. The nasal EPAP is a small device that fits over each of the nares. It has a one way valve that opens to allow air to flow in during inhalation but closes during exhalation so the patient exhales through the nose against a resistant outlet. The resistance creates positive airway pressure during the expiratory phase, which seems to stabilize the pharynx and prevent it from consistent collapse…
Siddhartha then decided to leave the Samanas and acquire knowledge from someone new, he hears about a man "who had overcome the sorrow of the world within himself bringing the world of rebirths to a halt"(11). This man was Gotama the Buddha. Siddhartha had heard about the Buddha through the Samanas. He had learned that this man "whose mere words or insufflation are able to cure every victim of the epidemic;" (12). Siddhartha learned that this man had reached a state of pure enlightenment. “The…
