Postoperative assessments enable the nurse to located potential problems that occurred during the procedure. Nurse should assess the mother for cervical, sulcal, or anal sphincter tears after a vacuum assisted delivery (Hook & Damos, 2008). Neonates should be assessed for signs of trauma. All assessments finding should be well…

“Please wipe from front to back (Weydt, 2010)”. During UTIs, urinary tract infections, bacteria enters your body through the urethra. When these bacteria or pathogens enter the body they may cause infections, especially in hospital settings. The urinary system is used for our body to produce urine as a way to help our system to get rid of waste and extra water that we do not need. It travels through a urinary tract that includes the kidneys, ureters, the bladder and the urethra. The kidneys are…

3. Explain the heart generates and conducts an electrical current. Page 388 The heart has its own built-in conduction system for generating action potentials spontaneously and coordinating contractions during the cardiac cycle. All the cardiac muscle fibers in each region of the heart are electrically linked together. The intercalated disks are connections that electrically join the muscle fibers of the heart into a single unit that can conduct electrical impulses through the entire wall of…

wherein the damage persists, seeming to resist treatment. Recurring constipation complicates the case. Another complication is the anal stenosis or stricture. This is a situation of developing an abnormally narrow anal canal. It is a result of either sphincter spasm or scar tissue build-up. Scar tissues are not as flexible as the normal ones and can be accumulated in a constricted area such as the rectal canal. There are gradual cases of anal stricture that blocks the stool exit and is…

well as observed and participated in patient interactions with great debriefing with Kristi. The child life service that I wish to highlight from today is urodynamics. I learned that urodynamic studies examine how well the bladder, urethra, and sphincters are able to store and release urine. Therefore, most urodynamic studies test the bladder’s ability to hold and empty urine. I was able to observe one preparation (by Taylor) and two procedural supports (one by Taylor and one by Kristi) in…

known as nonstriated muscle is an involuntary muscle found in the walls of the blood vessels and different hollow organs. Around blood vessels it regulate blood flow through vital organs, in the digestive and urinary systems around the rings called sphincter, assist in the movement of materials along the passageway…

Rectal prolapse is protuberance of rectal tissue via the anus to the exterior of the body. The rectum is the final segment of the large intestine. Description Rectal prolapse can be partial or complete. In partial prolapse, only the mucosa layer (mucous membrane) of the rectum spreads outside the body. The projection is usually 0.75-1.5 in (2-4 cm) long. In complete prolapse, named procidentia, the full thickness of the rectum obtrudes for up to 4.5 in (12 cm). Rectal prolapse is most common in…

processed food already is extremely bad for your health, but your stomach may also react badly to it as it may be harder to digest. Alcohol, caffeine, and sour food can increase the level of hydrochloric acid in your stomach, and open the esophageal sphincter, which can cause acid reflux. Extensive alcohol and…

which is a smooth muscle that is relatively thick as compared to the rest of the digestive tract. Through the process of peristalsis, the feces passes through the rectum to the anus. The anus is a canal that releases the feces through the external sphincter, to the…

only found in people. “[Larvae] are found in the muscles of the intermediate hosts and in the brain in the case of neurocysticercosis.” (Government of Canada) Also, the eggs are infectious to people. Taenia solium does have ovaries but no vaginal sphincter muscle, just a genital pore. 4. First, the eggs are laid in feces that get passed into the environment. It is very easy for eggs to survive a long time in that environment. Second, grass and other vegetation consumed by pigs infects the pig…
