Yes, you may be eligible for disability benefits if your atrial fibrillation and bronchitis significantly impair your ability to work and perform daily activities. The Social Security Administration (SSA) evaluates disability claims based on the severity of your condition and its impact on your functional limitations. To qualify, you would need to provide medical documentation that demonstrates how these conditions affect your ability to maintain gainful employment. Consulting with a disability attorney or advocate can help you navigate the application process.
What else can I help you with?
Advair make your Atrial Fibrillation worse?
never had A-Fib until on Advair
What is the loss of the normal rhythm of the heartbeat known as?
Atrial fibrillation or A-fib. I know this one from experience.
Can eye dilation drops cause atrial fibrillation?
The amount of atropine in these eyedrops is insufficient to cause atrial fib. Many medications actually contain trace amounts of atropine to discourage abuse.
What are the key differences between an EKG strip of a patient with atrial fibrillation (a-fib) and a normal EKG strip?
In atrial fibrillation (a-fib), the EKG strip will show irregular and rapid heartbeats with no distinct P waves, while a normal EKG strip will show regular and steady heartbeats with clear P waves before each QRS complex.
Do you need to give CPR to a person who has atrial fibrilation?
No, you would not give CPR to a person with atrial fib. This condition is treated with drugs such as blood thinners or medications that regulate the heart. If however, the person stops breathing, you would then perform CPR.
What is the assessment for atrial fibrillation?
There are a few things to do to asses for A-fib. 1.Check a pulse if is irregular this is an indication that a person may be in A-fib. 2. Listen to the heart if it is irregular it may be an indication of A-fib. 3.Ultimately a 12 lead EKG is going to be the thing that will tell you one is in A-fib. If you think or know if someone is in A-fib you want to know if they are hemodynamically stable (blood pressure and shortness of breath). When someone is in A-fib their heart rate can easily go above 150 bpm. Some people can chronically in A-fib and heart rate is controlled by medication. So in a nutshell the most important thing if someone is in A-fib is determining if the person is hemodynamically stable.
Rapid and dangerously uncoordinated ventricular contractions are called?
Rapid and dangerously uncoordinated ventricular contractions is called ventricular fibrillation, or v-fib. During v-fib, the ventricle is not pumping blood to the body, and thus v-fib is known as a lethal dysrhythmia.
Why recursive algorithm for Fibonacci series is inefficient?
Because the same calculations are done over and over again. Fib(n) - the nth. number in the sequence - is equal to fib(n-1) + fib(n-2). For example, fib(10) - the 10th. number in the sequence - is equal to fib(9) + fib(8). If you expand this, you get fib(8) + fib(7) + fib(7) + fib(6). If you expand again, you get fib(7) + fib(6) + fib(6) + fib(5) + fib(6) + fib(5) + fib(5) + fib(4). You can already see that some of the numbers have to be evaluated several times. In fact, the amount of calculations increases exponentially; whereas with a simple loop, to add numbers up to fib(n), this is not the case.
What does Predominant rhythm is atrial fibrillation mean?
Break down phrases into word meanings. Predominant means primary (at this moment). Rhythm is a noticeable timed or untimed sequence of events-- for example, a song has 3 short beats followed by 6 rapid beats; that is that song's rhythm. Atrial Fibrillation (or A-Fib) is a sustained rapid "quivering" of the heart, rather than normal systole. A-Fib does not let the heart chambers, especially the ventricles, rest. A normal heart would be lub-lub, pause, lub-lub, etc. But A-fib is more like lub-lu-lub-lu-lub-lu... rapid and continuous. A-Fib is a medical emergency that needs corrected before the underlying problem causes the heart to stop.
Can you take Aleve with A-FIB?
Yes, you can generally take Aleve (naproxen) with atrial fibrillation (A-FIB), but it's important to do so cautiously and under the guidance of a healthcare provider. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like Aleve can potentially increase the risk of bleeding, especially if you are taking anticoagulants for A-FIB. Always consult your doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it's safe based on your specific health situation.
How dangerous is atrial fibrillation?
Atrial fibrillation (A-fib) is a very dangerous condition. In A-fib, the heart is trying to pump too fast, but is uncoordinated. This means that blood is not circulated around the body well. It also causes blood to swirl around inside the heart and can lead to forming blood clots. If one of these blood clots goes to the lungs it can cause a pulmonary embolis, or if it goes to the brain it can cause a stroke, both of which could be deadly.
What is a sentence for fib?
Fib as a noun "he told a fib about eating his spinach" fib as verb "Fibbing is not acceptable, even if you don't call it lying"
