Necrosis

(Lister Hill National Center for Biomedical Communications, 2016). BMD is brought on by a X-linked mutations of the dystrophin gene (Mah et al., 2014). The mutation causes the absence of dystrophin protein which leads to the progressive muscle necrosis (Mah et al., 2014). Subsequently, the condition also leads to cardiac muscle enlargement and dilated cardiomyopathy (Lister Hill National Center for Biomedical Communications,…

Assignment: Ethical Principles Nurses are required to make responsible judgments, decisions, and actions. Consequently, they have to uphold the ethics governing the profession, and guarantee quality and safety when making decisions related to patients. In addition, nurses should respect patients and remain free of prejudice due to their social or economic status, individual attributes, or medical conditions (Winland-Brown, Lachman, & Swanson, 2015a). Nurses should promote health and care,…

trilogy and immunopathy (susceptibility to infections). Peripheral neuropathy could have minimal effect on little symptoms hence making it not to be easily identified. However, its pathology does advance faster causing the ending stage the tissue necrosis to reach quickly. Patients who have type 2 diabetes are estimated to be 20% to 50% distal sensory neuropathy this reduces the sensation in the person 's foot causing the abnormal spread of shear stresses and pressure in the foot with a callus…

The proximate composition of purple soymilk (Table 1) is not much different from that of yellow soymilk. Purple soymilk has protein, ash, fat, carbohydrate and moisture content 2.76 ± 0.13, 0.12 ± 0.08, 1.17 ± 0.06, 1.27 ± 0.10, and 94.69 ± 0.04% respectively, while yellow soymilk from Tunde-Akintunde and Souley [35] has a protein content of 2.23-3.05%, ash content of 0.24-0.32%, fat content of 1.60-1.94%, carbohydrate content of 1.99-2.78% and moisture content of 92.02-93.29%. Black soybean…

perfusion of the kidneys caused by volume depletion and renal artery stenosis( Cheung, Talbot , 2008) Intrinsic kidney injury involves structural damage to glomerulus, vessels, or kidney tubules which can be by prolonged pre- renal causes leading to cell necrosis by ischemia or by infectious agents and toxins that result in inflammation or injury . (ADIS International Ltd, 2009;Cheunget al ;2008; Talbot,2008). Post renal kidney injury is caused by obstruction either from kidney calculi,…

Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS) is a rare systemic condition that affects renal functioning and can develop into a life threatening disease with lasting complications. HUS is characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (destruction of red blood cells due to damage of small blood vessels), thrombocytopenia (an abnormal drop in platelet count) and impaired renal function (Nayer, A. & Asif, A., 2013). HUS can often onset after an infection of Escherichia coli which is a Shiga toxin-producing…

The three different ways X-rays can be taken are computed tomography (CT scan), fluoroscopy, and radiography (Fda.gov). CT scans are X-rays that produce cross-sectional images of the body. They are also referred to as computerized axial tomography. A fluoroscopy is a medical imaging to show a continuous X-ray image, like an X-ray movie. Radiography is the art, act or process of making radiographs and sonograms. Using radiology on it too dangerous, it can cause irreparable damage to fertility,…

The patient (pt) in room 584 is an 84-year-old Caucasian woman who was transferred to Lynchburg General hospital on December 12, 2016 from Stonewall hospital in Lexington in order to receive pulmonary care. Though she was admitted for unspecified dementia without behavioral disturbances, she was originally hospitalized at Stonewall since September 21, 2016 for atrial fibrillation with a low ventricular response rate, and dyspnea. She has co-morbidities of Parkinson’s disease and Lewy body…

Care of Patients with Spinal Cord Injury Spinal cord injury is an event that changes a person’s life forever. The classifications of spinal cord injuries are concussion, compression, contusion, laceration, and transection. Injury can be complete or incomplete (Nayduch., 2010). The type and location of the spinal cord injury will determine the care and management of the patient and subsequent complications that arise from the injury. The research will focus on evidenced-based medical, surgical…

face and hands. The disease course begins with edematous papules and vesicles that crust and heal with varioliform scar formation, seen in figure 4.13 Diagnosis is made clinically or with biopsy showing intraepidermal reticular degeneration and cell necrosis. Some cases have documented ocular involvement including conjunctivitis, corneal involvement, and keratouveitis. 14 This disease frequently resolves spontaneously at the end of adolescence, but the scars and possible mutilations from the…
