...Cari’s Story AP2630 Katina Kline ITT-Technical Institute Cari’s Story A. The infection was able to spread because the pharynx, sinuses, larynx, and trachea are all connected and once there is an infections it is prone to spread in neighboring areas if it is not treated. B. The cough reflex is a long and deep inhalation followed by the closure of the glottis, causing strong exhalation that suddenly pushed the glottis open, sending air through the respiratory passages. Causes for this reflex could be foreign bodies in the larynx, trachea, or epiglottis. Cari’s body is stimulating this reflex due to the mucus and fluid buildup in her lungs. C. There are macrophages that found in the terminal bronchioles that remove dust particles and other debris from the alveolar spaces. D. Cari’s airways are affected by the excess mucus and fluid in her lungs because the buildup in her lungs make it impossible for her lungs to fully expand, so she is unable to get the amount of air her body needs, thus putting extra pressure on her lungs. E. Cari’s lung compliance would be altered because it would increase from trying to force gases in and out of the alveoli, which those are filled with fluid due to pneumonia. F. The fluid in Cari’s lungs would affect her lung capacity because it is not allowing the space filled with fluid to be filled with air. G. The elevation of Cari’s respiratory rate should increase her minute ventilation. H. The clinical find...

...Cari’s Story A. Mucous membranes of the nose, parasinal sinuses, pharynx and middle ear are all connected in the throat. B. A cough reflex is a long drawn and deep inhalation followed by a complete closure of the glottis which results in a strong exhalation that suddenly pushes the glottis open and sends a blast of air through the upper respiratory passages. This process is clearing the lungs by forcing foreign bodies out. C. Macrophages are present that remove dust particles and other debris from the alveolar spaces. D. Lung capacity is decreased because the air space is already filled with mucus and fluids which doesn’t allow enough room for oxygen, the extra fluid and mucus puts additional pressure on the lungs E. The fluid makes it harder to expand the lungs because fluid makes the alveoli sticky and unable to open or expand. F. Cari’s lung capacity would go down because the air space us already being taken up by fluid. G. The elevation of her respiratory rate should increase because the total volume of air that is inhaled and exhaled is minute ventilation, she is taking more breaths a minute. H. The clinical findings would show that her arteries have too much oxygen, because a normal Po2 of a resting person is 40 mmHg and exercises lower Po2 levels. Also a normal resting oxygen level is 94% with no added Oxygen. I. The symptoms due to lack of oxygen and reduced oxygen exchange at her tissues are; chest pain, “panting like a dog”, trouble...

...Cari’s Story A. An infection in Cari’s nasal passages and pharynx can spread into her sinuses because her sinuses are connected to the pharynx, larynx, and trachea and the infection will more than likely spread to those areas because it haven’t been treated in time. B. The cough reflex is when there is a deep and long inhalation and the glottis closes afterwards. When this happens an exhalation pushes the glottis open and air is sent through the respiratory passages. Because of the mucus buildup in Cari’s lungs, her cough reflex. C. Alveolar macrophage are the structures found in the terminal bronchioles and would normally protects Cari’s lungs from infectious pathogens and particulate matter. They hang around the alveoli and dust particles where the debris is collected. Since Cari is a smoker, the cilia in her respiratory passages became paralyzed and excess amounts of mucus were secreted; then, macrophages are sent to her lungs and goes in the mucus instead of fighting off the pathogens. D. The resistance of Cari’s airways would be affected by excess mucus and fluid in her lungs because she would have problems getting the adequate amount of oxygen; the pressure of fluid and mucus buildup in her lungs won’t allow her lungs to expand in order to get the adequate amount of oxygen that her body needs. E. Cari’s lung compliance would be altered as her alveoli fill with fluid due to pneumonia because she would have to use more effort for the get oxygen; the...

...Krista Smith 4/20/15 AP 2630 Unit 5 Case Study 1 Cari’s Story A. The infection in Cari’s nasal passages and pharynx was able to spread into her sinuses due to the sinuses being a drainage area for the nasal passages. B. The cough reflex is used to clear sputum and irritants that are in the nasal passages and pharynx. There are cilia in her trachea that is moving mucous up from the lungs. When the mucous becomes more abundant it triggers the cough reflex. C. There a macrophages found in the terminal bronchioles and alveoli that normally would protect Cari’s lungs from infectious pathogens and particulate matter. D. The excess mucous and fluid in the lungs would raise the resistance of Cari’s airways because of the small diameter the buildup would cause. The fluid would have some of alveoli under water where they could not function properly and there would also be more friction from the buildup. E. Cari’s lung compliance would increase from trying to force gases into and out of the alveoli. Those are filled with fluid due the the pneumonia. F. The fluid in Cari’s lungs would lower her total lung capacity by not allowing the space that is taken up by the fluid to be filled with air. G. The elevation in her respiratory rate would alter her minute ventilation by raising it. Minute ventilation is determined by multiplying respiratory rate by total volume. H.

...Living in a world where you feel like you are not seen or heard can be mind blowing and depressing. A young high school boy named Brandon in the short film, The Most Beautiful Thing by Cameron Covell, is a social outcast and has an isolated mindset. He feels as if he is never seen nor heard. Knowing that, he realizes that prom is just around the corner and he has to build up the courage to not only find a girl but also to ask her to go to prom with him. He has his eyes on one girl in particular and attempts to speak to her every time he sees her. The first time he speaks to her in the hallway she keeps walking. He later sees this girl outside sitting beside him and he speaks again. She did not respond. He persists and yells, “You can’t hear me?” She realizes he is trying to get her attention so she looks over at him. She writes him a note informing him that she is deaf and refuses to speak and that her name is Emily. They start writing notes, and then transition into hanging out, texting and even liking each other. Then he realizes he just might have a date for prom. First he has to figure out how he will ask her. But one day just might change everything for the worst. An unexpected obstacle occurs and he has to figure out a resolution. The acting of the main characters, the setting where the short film takes place, and the music that is playing in the background all has a positive impact on my thought of this film. The acting in this film was highly significant. Due...

...unchanged. The title of this book is symbolic, with nectar representing goodness and kindness, and the sieve representing the world. When you put nectar (goodness) in a sieve (the world) it will only last a short time before disappearing without a trace. In other words, enjoy what you have while it lasts, do not try to save what is in the moment. 2) Why might the author have chosen to have Ruku tell her story in flashback form? Is Ruku a reliable narrator? - The author might have chosen to have Ruku tell her story in flashback form because this way, Ruku can foreshadow and add thoughts about the events. When a story is told in flashback form, it is easier to focus on the main events and conflicts of the story rather than the minute details. Thoughts and feelings Ruku had after the events in the story occurred can be added in, which helps the reader to understand the plot. The story makes more sense being told after the fact, and makes you think about how things have changed since then. I believe Ruku is a reliable narrator. She was involved in all of the events in the story firsthand. 3) How does Ruku’s experience as a daughter, wife, and mother inform her relationship with her daughter Ira? - Ruku gained a lot of life experience through all of her trials. Her parents were supportive of her and she had a smooth marriage. Ira was Ruku’s first child and only daughter, so this gives them a special relationship. Ruku was unfortunately unable to bear a son with her husband...

...a True War Story How to Tell a True War Story is written by Tim O’Brien. It is set in Vietnam between the years of nineteen fifty-four and nineteen seventy-five. In this section, the story starts out by talking about a man named Rat Kiley. Kiley is writing a letter to a friend’s sister telling her how good of a man he really was. He also writes about different stories that happened and how he was the first to volunteer for things, just to emphasize the greatness of this man. The sister of the deceased man does not write back to Rat Kiley which greatly upsets him. The story goes on to identify the man as Curt Lemon. Eventually, it is clear how Lemon died. Kiley and Lemon were tossing a grenade back and forth to each other when suddenly Lemon ended up stepping into a booby trap. Another man in the military by the name of Mitchell Sanders tells O’brien a story to teach him lesson. The story is about two men who set out to the mountains on a mission. After a few days of living up there, the men hear strange noises. It gets worse and worse so they order that the land below them be attacked. They pack up their stuff and walk down the mountain. When they reach the bottom their commander asks them what they heard and the men reply with nothing. Sanders claims the moral of the story is that no one listens, you need to listen to the quiet. He goes on to say that the moral of a war story cannot be extracted without a deeper meaning surfacing. The meaning behind the story is if he really...

...bat. I find it awkward and sometimes too far off, raising a problem when ignoring it was all you probably needed. The thing is I still think about it. You’re not a idiot; it’s pretty obvious. I think you’re amazing and that won’t change no matter what this manages to morph itself into. And in my opinion, it doesn’t need to. But I think about the song, I think about the poems, I think about the unfinished story rotting because I’ve lost what motivated me to complete it. A story is a what-could-have-been right? When we daydream about our futures, daydream about bravery and acceptance and victory, it’s just a fantasy story of our lives. Sometimes I just have to write it down to make sure I don’t lose it. Don’t forget it. Understand that once upon a time, I was such and such. People say in the future, they’ll look back and laugh. I won’t laugh; I’ll understand. Perhaps not why, why you, why this time, why so silent and why so demanding but I’ll understand the circumstances. I’ll understand what drove me and what tore it apart. My entire life’s story out there for everyone to see. Sometimes I feel so exposed. It’s weaving together assumptions that are sometimes so out there, right in the open. But that’s okay, because even things I write a month ago, I no longer understand. I don’t know whom I was so pissed off at and what made me write a passage on loneliness. I don’t need to. It’s all in the moment. & It’s not so much that we lost it, as much...

...Story 1 Paddle Kink 2.5 Amy is deeply submissive and will do what Sir wishes, and when he invites her out a week before Valentine’s Day she has no idea what dinner will bring. While this story had a great theme to it, it just fell flat for me. There was very little emotional connection between the two leads to the story. Mr. Wood tried to weave a story that had all of the wonderful kinky things that I love but “Sir” just seems to cold and unemotional towards Amy and it left me scratching my head as to why he would even go to the trouble of setting up the dinner the story revolved around. There is lots of kinky pieces to this story that just did not seem to flow together as well as I would of liked. It is short story that had spankings, some MFM and FF action, voyeurism, and the most difficult one for me to read was the massive amount humiliation Sir used towards Amy. There was very little after care and this just made me want to get angry with them both. While the story does only comprise of one encounter between Amy and Sir, there is just to much missing for this to be a believable, even in the context of fantasy, match. If you enjoy humiliation with a side of voyeurism then you may enjoy this book, but if you like any sort of emotional connection I would skip over this...

...Book Critique for Likeonomics: The unexpected Truth Behind Earning Trust, And Inspiring Behavior Rohit Bhargava took the time to write Likeonomics: The unexpected Truth Behind Earning Trust, and Inspiring Behavior in 2012 and was published by John Wiley and Sons, Inc. In this book Mr. Bhargava gives many examples about how if people like you, they are more likely to choose you, or trust you as opposed to not liking you and not wanting to be around you. He utilizes real life scenarios which brings excitement and interest to the reading. The stories of motivation and inspiration from some of the most successful people in the world and how their success was made because they were simply likeable, makes this book an easy page turner. He breaks the book down into three parts: The Crisis and the Solution, The Five Principles of Likeonomics, and The Storybook. This book offers you the ability to see the world through a different set of eyes. Exploring such things as “the Likeability Gap” gives one insight on simple things in life. Mr. Bhargava points out that simply offering a good service is not good enough for a customer to come back or to brag on what you are offering. It’s what makes people go out of their way for a customer simply because they like them. I am guilty of this myself. I work in a service related field and I often encounter clients that are rude and nasty. But every now and then I may encounter someone that I simply “click” with because they are pleasant, or...
