"Persons at increased risk of severe illness from influenza (i.e. high-risk persons) include those groups at higher risk for severe illness from seasonal influenza, including: children younger than 5 years old; persons aged 65 years or older; children and adolescents (younger than 18 years) who are receiving long-term aspirin therapy and who might be at risk for experiencing Reye syndrome after influenza virus infection; pregnant women; adults and children who have pulmonary, including asthma, cardiovascular, hepatic, hematological, neurologic, neuromuscular, or metabolic disorders, such as diabetes; adults and children who have immunosuppression (including immunosuppression caused by medications or by HIV); and, residents of nursing homes and other chronic-care facilities."
"... we want to make sure that people who have these underlying conditions, or family member who care for such people, remain vigilant about these warning signs emerging. It's often best to consult or at least initially by phone or email, with a health care provider. That's probably a better strategy than going to an emergency room, but we do think that these warning signs can help people differentiate a cough or cold or respiratory symptoms without warning signs, from the type of signs that might lead you to want to attempt medical, to seek help from a medical provider.

What types of doctors can prescribe Adderall?
When my son was in 2nd grade, he was first on Ridilan and then Adderall. They were both prescribed by his pediatrician. For an adult to get on a drug like adderall, they have one that is stimulant free, I forget what it is called but that is generally prescribed by either your PCP or a Psychiatrist, they can write all sorts of anti-depressant drugs and other psychotropic drugs. (drugs that alter the brain's chemistry). If your PCP won't write it, then you may have to get a referral to a psychiatrist depending on your insurance plan. Many family doctor's (Primary Care Physicians) won't write for these types of drugs because it is out of their area of expertise.

Wrist fracture still pains after 4 years?
Bone damage takes an amazingly long time to completely heal to a painless state, and after 3 months. some pain would be unsurprising. However, it's always a good idea to ask for a follow-up for long term injuries and as fractures of the wrist are not always easy to set, perhaps a visit to your doc is in order.

What equipment do doctors use when people stop breathing?
We manually open the airway using either a head tilt chin lift or a modified jaw thrust. After making sure they are not infact not breathing on there own we hook up a device called a bag valve mask (bvm) with oxygen to breath for them. The rate of breaths for a person who is apenic (not breathing) with a strong pulse is 1 breath every 6-8 seconds. Make sure to monitor the pulse if it becomes slow and weak begin CPR.
Yes those are the basics, however you first need to check for any obstructions in the airway before you begin your ventilation's, you need to secure the airway by using a oropharyngeal airway and you need to intubate the patient. We can also connect a ventilator to the et tube thereby getting rid of the need for a bvm. You also need to ascertain the reason for the apnea and if possible correct that.

What is a doctor of juris prudence?
A "juris doctor" (or J.D.) is essentially the professional doctorate degree for those lawyers and attorneys. This is awarded after earning a bachelor's degree, receiving entry into an appropriate law school and completing approximately 3 years of intense study of relative law and legal issues. It is similar in nature to the M.D. awarded to medical practitioners or the Ph.D. awarded to those in other fields (i.e. clinical psychology) who complete their professional training after completing their bachelor's degree. It is the doctorate needed to be a lawyer. Just thought they are uneducated! The JD is the doctorate received to become a lawyer/attorney. The PHD is the doctorate for the fields of study not covered by JD or MD. We don't call lawyers "doctor" why do we need to call those who have received a PHD in education "doctor"?

What is the doctor who gives hearing test called?
Its caled Doctor in general?nurse!every dovtor can do it! <-- wrong
An Audiologist is a doctor (though some are able to practice with MS in Audiology because they were grandfathered-in--so, those audiologists are not doctors) who administers hearing tests. Nurses are able to administer newborn hearing screenings, which don't require the nurse to do any diagnostic or interpretative functions.
