Dehydration The body is made of 60% water and serves in the functions of digestion, circulation, secretion of saliva, the transportation of nutrients and the maintenance of the body’s temperature. We may go on without food for a long period of time but without water we may die of dehydration. Water or fluids is important when exercising because fluids can be lost during exercising through sweating and may result in muscle fatigue. With proper hydration you skin will look refreshed and your skins

1. Assess a healthy individual and a patient whose fluid and electrolyte or acid-base imbalance is altered using tables in book, which describes parameters to be considered in physical and clinical assessments for fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance. Compare and contrast your findings. • Neck veins and central venous pressure- healthy adult: normally when the patient is supine the external jugular veins will fill to the anterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle. With the patient

The solubilities of ionic substances in water vary considerably. When solutions of different ionic compounds are mixed, they sometimes react to produce a precipitate (insoluble solid). For example, if a solution of silver nitrate is added to a sodium chloride solution, a white solid, silver chloride, is produced immediately. The equation for this can be written as: AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq) AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq) When two solutions

1. With good detail, describe the signal transmission across a neuromuscular (myoneural) junction that allows the nervous system to move the muscles of a football player. (Hint: See the videos on lesson pages 3-4.) Waves of chemical and electrical charges are what will give an athlete an action. Furthermore, these charges will move along the neuron and the nerve impulses. The electrical charges the cell membrane reverses and charges at a high speed. 2. What environmental and behavioral factors

Homeostasis Homeostasis can be defined as the body's ability to maintain a regular internal environment. This is done by maintaining a body temperature within a certain field. An internal environment means the environment inside an organism. Negative feedback ensures that, in any control system, changes are reversed and returned back to the set level. The negative feedback keeps our body temperature at a constant 37°C. If we get too hot, blood vessels in our skin vasodilate (become larger) and

The human body works best when the levels of fluid and electrolytes are within a normal range. When a patient with a serious liver disease is presented with health problems, the health care providers must understand every aspect of the problems in order to provide the appropriate care. This includes understanding the pathophysiology, assessing the patient correctly, and reaching the goals of the plan. By following these steps, the patient will be provided the care he or she is entitled to. Obvious

an electrochemical cell in accordance with measuring the EMF. Electrochemical cells were first invented by the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta; the electrochemical cell consisted of the zinc (2+) cation and the copper (1+) cation as well. The electrolyte consisted of a sulfuric acid and water mixture. The purpose of the electrochemical cell is to convert the chemical reaction in this case between zinc and sulfuric acid into electrical energy, thus the term “electro-chemical.” Lastly, there are some

How to Prevent Cramps Cramps are usually associated with muscle fatigue and/or dehydration with an associated loss of electrolytes. There are two ways to get cramps: skeletal muscle overload and fatigue and excessive sweat losses associated with a decreased level of electrolytes (specifically sodium). 1. Have a hot shower or bath. This will improve blood circulation and help the connective tissue around the muscles. 2. Need calcium. You can find good source of calcium in low-fat dairy

Diabetic Ketoacidosis Quinnton M Rees Brigham Young University-Idaho Diabetic Ketoacidosis The American diabetes association (2011) defines diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) as a medical emergency that can progress to a diabetic coma and death if not rapidly diagnosed and treated (American diabetes association (ADA), 2011). DKA is a complication associated with diabetes mellitus (DM) and is characterized by hyperglycemia due to a deficiency in insulin (Urden, Stacey, & Lough, 2010)
