The killer in diarrhea is loss of fluids and electrolytes; water and salts. Your body is an electrical mechanism, and like any battery, it needs a proper balance of electrolytes - or you'll die of that cause, alone.

If you can keep hydrated (either from IV fluids or just drinking) and retain a proper salt balance, you'll recover from the disease on your own.

In Haiti, where diarrhea is a major cause of death in children, (due to cholera, spread by infected water) doctors have devised what they call "Oral Rehydration Salts", a small packet of salt to be mixed with a quart of BOILED water. This can save 95% of the children who might otherwise die.

If the payment amount and other terms that were agreed upon are being met, it would not be in the best interest of the creditor to place the account in collection status. However, if there is a significant arrearage or the terms of the agreement are not being honored, the creditor may take such action in order to change the account status for taxation issues and other purposes.

Depends on how fast they heal or on their condition. But if a life support system fails, then it might display a huge risk on the person's life. If a patient is critically ill and needs life support just to try and fight for their life, they can die immediately if the system fails

The infant and other infants in the hospital are the ones who benefit from an incubator. It keeps the germs out and also keeps the germs that that baby has in instead of spreading around the hospital.

It depends on the size and location of the wound. If you nicked yourself shaving, you will probably only need to clean it. If it won't stop bleeding apply pressure. Just use water to clean the wound. If you have a serious cut you need to immediately apply pressure, clean, bandage and/or if it is bad enough, go to the hospital or call an ambulance. If it is severing a artery or vein, is close or penetrating a vital organ, or won't stop bleeding call an ambulance immediately and apply first aid as needed. If you have a minor cut just apply pressure to stop bleeding, clean, and bandage. Just make sure to periodically air the wound out. I recommend you take first aid classes for in depth training.

a home pregnancy test is not asaccurate as a doctors i would never trust home tests if you don't have the money or just want to keep it a secret the best thing to do is take 5 home test and if 4 of them say you are chances are you pregnant.

Staff are the actual medical personnel: doctors, nurses, orderlies, therapists, etc.

Administration are the ones who run the business side of the hospital. They're the ones you interact with to pay your bill, make complaints, throw fundraisers, etc.

There is some overlap, of course. Chief of Staff is an administrative position, but that person is always a doctor.

I would have said the radial, median, ulnar, lateral cutaneous, and musculocutaneous. I guess it depends on where your arm cuts off :}

A hospital-acquired infection is usually one that first appears three days after a patient is admitted to a hospital or other health care facility. Infections acquired in a hospital are also called nosocomial infections.

Hospitals do not buy soda tabs, but they will collect them. They can earn money when they turn them in. Some schools also collect soda tabs.

A personal assistant can help with the change of a colostomy bag if that is what is needed for the patient's care.

Difficult question: To answer this I'll need to discuss the disease a little. Leptospirosis is a complex bacterial disease with strong zoonotic properties (i.e. it can cross species lines). While more prevalent in land mammals than in humans and sea mammals, it still can spread to any of these. Epidemiology requires a large mass of animals as the bacterium cannot survive long outside the host. Method of infection includes through urine, cuts (blood-to-blood) mucus membranes, via semen (animal-to-animal -- not observed in humans as an STD at this time), and there is concern that it may (predominantly in the urine state) absorb through intact skin. At risk are veternarians, sewer workers and slaughter house workers in particular. 50-60 human cases appear in the US per annum. The disease is biphasic. The course of the disease is a 4-14 day asymptomatic incubation period followed by roughly a 7-day period of flue-like symptoms where the patient is febrile and experiences chills and myalgia. There is a brief asymptomatic period as the firsrt phase resolves, and then the second, more dangerous pahse commences. During this phase, the disease mounts an attack on vascular linings, liver, generates a high fever, and can complicate into meningitis. This said, Nursing Intervention hinges on first identifying the disease, which can be easily misdiagnosed. For the first 7-10 days, you can find the organism in the bloodstream, or it can be cultured, where it can be observed microscopically. Juandice is an indicator, and ELISA and PCR testing are confirming. Once identified, the next steps are controlling symptoms in the patient and preventing the spread of the disease. Maintain the patient's vitals, control pain, and attack with big gun anti-biotics (Doxycycline is one -- 100mg bid x 1wk -- note that doxy can be used for prophylacsis as well as direct treatment). Control invovles isolating the infected animals (Canines and rodents are high on the list, but other mammals as well), curing them and preventing spread. As urine is a common vector, washdowns of the area with fresh water are helpfull. Note that this is considered a disease of world importance, due to its easy, zoonotic transference, lack of human vaccine, and potientally fatal outcome.

The simple, quick answer but not the only one,is that Rx is an abbreviation for the Latin word recipere or recipe, which means Take, thou. In the days before manufactured drugs, apothecaries ,who were also doctors would write out a formula for medications. They would mix up and compound ingredients to make drugs or remedies. Not until well into the 19th century was the distinction between the apothecary/pharmacist as a compounder of medicines and the physician as a therapist generally accepted. According to the Pharmaceutical Handbook (nineteenth edition, 1980), the Latin abbreviation Rx is completed by some statement such as "fiat mistura," which means "let a mixture be made," sometimes abbreviated to f. m. or ft. mist. or fait mist.). Pharmacists required a knowledge of compounding until recently. In 1920, 80% of prescriptions were compounds mixed in the shop. In the 1940s the number of prescriptions requiring compounding had declined to 26%, and then to 1% or less in 1971.
