Concept explainers
Marvin was driving too fast on a remote mountain road at 3 a.m. when his car left the road and rolled down a steep hill. Marvin sustained numerous cuts and bruises. When medical help arrived 2 hours later, his systolic blood pressure was 70 mm Hg. and his pulse was weak (thready). Intravenous saline was administered immediately, and plasma and then whole blood were administered in the emergency room. After another hour, Marvin's blood pressure had returned to normal and he no longer appeared pale. While he was in the hospital, Marvin's urine volume decreased to less than 30 mL/h (< 400 mL/day). A blood sampleindicated elevated levels of urea, creatinine. and uric acid. He also exhibited hyperkalemia and some cardiac arrhythmia, and hisarterial pH was < 7.35 (below normal). Over the next few days, his red blood cell count decreased and he bruised easily. His jugular veins were distended, and there was some peripheral and pulmonary edema. Form the following list, select the conditions that applied to Marvin at this time.
(1) hypoxic injury to the kidney
(2) increased reabsorption of wastes
(3) decreased
(4) decreased
(5) increased
(6) decreased erythropoietin secretion

Ken, a paramedic, arrives on the scene and does emergency first aid. John has multiple lacerations on his hands and arms; the laceration on his right arm is bleeding profusely. Ken applies a pressure bandage and notes that John’s blood pressure is 90/60. Ken starts an intravenous line and transports John to the hospital. The emergency department physician examines John and notes he also has contusions near his liver. The physician has the medical technologist draw blood for a CBC and to type and crossmatch the blood. Name the blood components and their function.arrow_forwardJohn, age 24, is involved in an automobile accident. Ken, a paramedic, arrives on the scene and does emergency first aid.

- While Mr. Brown is receiving his IV lidocaine, his heart rate decreases to 52 beats per minute with continued PVCs. You continue to monitor the IV and the ECG. How can you avoid this medical error?arrow_forwardAfter a motor vehicle accident, Jana presents to the emergency department complaining of severe pain to her right foot and ankle. Upon examination, you noticed that her right foot is completely dislocated from her ankle and is cold to the touch. In addition, the capillary refill time is greater than 10 seconds in all five toes of the right foot, whereas it is nearly immediate in the left foot what has likely happened why has it affected capillary refill time? What would happen if the problem isn't correctly immediately?arrow_forwardThe physician ordered 1,000 mL D5W with 10 mEq KCl to infuse at 100 mL/h using tubing with a drop factor of 20 gtt/mL. The infusion was started at 6:30 AM. a. What is the total infusion time? b. What time will the infusion end? c. What is the flow rate?arrow_forward
