The olfactory mucosa is the lines of the roof in the nasal cavity. The respiratory mucosa is lining the rest of the nasal cavity and it’s important for defense. It contains mucus for trapping inhaled particles, mucus is pushing towards pharynx and swallowed, humidifies the incoming air. There is also lysozyme, which is an enzyme to…

mouth. Compensatory strategies: Alternating with thick liquid help to clear but patient demonstrated penetration during the swallow secondary to the residue silently. Peaches: Mild to moderate residue in the oral cavity. Mild residue in the vallecula sinus. Residue from oral cavity after his first swallow eventually fell into his vallecula sinus and space above the piriform sinus. Again causing patient to gag and regurgitate bolus back into his mouth and in his nose. Cracker: Did…

A case study of asthma in a 10 year old European child. This case study will cover the normal structure and function of the respiratory system. This case study will also discuss the changes that occur when asthma is triggered, and the routine diagnostic tests/vital signs for asthma. The normal range of the routine tests/vital signs for asthma and three nursing interventions that are required to meet the clients needs in relation to asthma will be explained further. To stay alive we need…

1. Definition of Asthma: Asthma is one of the most common type of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A COPD is a type of disease or disorder to which the airway is affected and causes breathing to be slowed or forced. Asthma is a type of COPD that causes the airway to become inflamed and to be hypertensive (increased pressures in the blood vessels in the airway) due to any internal or external stimuli.

feature that is common in Jane’s experience, because she has difficulties in pronunciation and differentiation between speech sounds.

I measured the sub-pubic angle first and it came out to be 90 degrees(male). Next, the pubis body width, it measured out to be 25-30 mm long(male). The Greater Sciatic Notch was less than 68 degrees which came out to be female. Lastly, the Pelvic Cavity Shape was circular/wide and mainly showing the coccyx(female). Next, I measured the skull. The upper edge of the eye orbit was sharp meaning it was a female. Next, the eye orbit, the results were round meaning female. The zygomatic process is a…

1.15E-Identify the basic function and organs of the urinary system and the digestive system The urinary system is made up of the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra. The urinary system’s basic function is to filter out waste and other materials from the bloodstream that are then transferred out of the system in the form of urine. Please refer to page 944 in the textbook for a complete picture diagram. • Kidneys: We normally have two kidneys; these kidneys measure 4 to 5 inches each.…

Chantal Sebire, a French school teacher, has been suffering from a rare cancer (Crawley 2008). The nasal cavity cancer or facial tumor, esthesioneurobalstoma, has been known to continuously damage one’s brain and would eventually be fatal (Crawley 2008). It would greatly affect the sufferer’s eyesight, sense of taste and smell (Crawley 2008). This was what 53 year old Chantal Sebire had to unbearably go through. She has three children (Samuel 2008) and was diagnosed with this cancer since year…

nerves), sixteen major muscles, and nearly one hundred and fifty thousand muscle fascicles (Shoshani 2015). Two parallel, muscle-enclosed nasal cavities extend from the skull to the end of the trunk. Elephants can adjust the diameter of these passages by constricting or relaxing the surrounding muscles. Air is drawn into the trunk and carried along through these cavities during respiration, and water can be taken into these passages when the animal needs to drink (National Geographic…
