A sample of the patients bacteria causing the urinary tract infection can only be used if a urine sample is bacteriologically viable (1 Radar). Infected urine and sterile urine are common samples used for the diagnosis of patients (1 Radar). It is important to gain further knowledge of multiple organisms’ resistance to antibiotics that cause urinary tract infections (1Radar). Escherichia coli has distinct characteristics and structures that help identify their unique properties (2 Johnson). Escherichia coli is the most common and most prevalent bacteria present in the fecal flora of the human colon (2 Johnson). Because of Escherichia coli unique ability to overcome the obstacles of a new environment, it makes easy for bacteria to spread into the urinary tract and produce a discomforting infection (2 Johnson). All research conducted lead to the belief that Escherichia coli was the Enterobacteriaceae pathogen causing the UTI in the patient. In order to confirm this prediction a set of differential tests and biochemical test must be conducted.

Due to the patient being admitted to the hospital with E. coli and Shiga toxin and recent hemolytic transfusion reaction, the WBC count should be monitored to assure there is a negative trend. If the trend continues to stay elevated, it could indicate further inflammation or infection of the colon.

Water and Gatorade both had pH’s that eventually decreased. The three Gatorade urine samples started at a pH of 6.7 for the first measurement while the second and third both had a pH of 6.0. The urine samples from water had its first two measurements both at 6.5 and the third dropped to 6.0. Coke remained constant at 6.0 for all three measurements. The pH for coffee and the control increased over time. The pH for the first two of the coffee samples were both 6.5 and the third went up to 7.0. Lastly, the first control sample was 6.0 and went up to 6.5 for the second. (Figure

Similarly, during my previous internship at the BAC article 31 clinic, and because of my veteran status, often times I was asked by my field supervisor, who is also the agency program director, to tap into VA resources to gather additional resources that could be useful for the agency in response to working with veteran clients who are receiving treatment in the BAC agency (Bridging Access to Care). In the context of the use informal structure within the BAC article 31 clinic, I also believe that the efforts put forth in developing and building a relationship with the agency program director, to include contact relationships within the VA institution in support of additional services for veteran clients; exemplify practice forms of informal

Because of the positive nitrite and small amount of leukocytes I would say that could indicate a urinary tract infection.

Pt.’s with NG tubes loose potassium through suctioning. Sodium of 140 is normal but on the higher end which is indicative of dehydration. Chloride of 92 is a little low which is interesting because the sodium is normal-high and usually chloride follows sodium. Mag of 1.4 is low maybe because of low calcium.

CBC lab results can look normal or they can reflected hydration as polycythemia (shown as a high hematocrit level). A lack of insulin is present. This deficit in insulin causes glucose not to be taken into the cells of the body leaving glucose floating free in the blood stream. The increase in glucose can be determined on a CBC panel as well. Biochemical panels will most likely show liver abnormalities if the underlying cause if hepatic Lipidosis, pancreatitis, or extrahepatic biliary obstruction with severe pancreatitis. ALT and ALP levels become elevated in these cases. An increased BUN and creatinine m be high with either primary renal disease or pre-renal azotemia. Caused by dehydration or hypovolemia. Hyperlipidemia may also

Plasma would carry white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets to the injury site, which is the scrape on the hand. Platelets would attach with each other, building a blockade to stop blood flow at the injury site. White blood cells would attack and kill foreign substances that enter through the injury site and try to hurt the body. Red blood cells would provide oxygen at the injury site to help heal the injury, having that platelets have created a blockade.

The patient is a 43-year-old healthy female on birth control who tells me last night at about 10 o'clock, she started having urinary symptoms, including burning with urination, frequency, suprapubic pressure. She denies any flank pain, no fevers. She does tell me she suffered throughout the night with these symptoms, but then by this morning, she got AZO and did take that. This did relieve the symptoms. She feels quite comfortable throughout the day today. She does get normal periods on her birth control tablets. She states her last period ended this past Sunday. She did note that yesterday, she had some vaginal discharge that seems like dried blood. She has not had any itching or other vaginal discharge and no further

In this lab, we observed four different types of cells found in the human body. Each is unique in size, shape, and function. The following indicates why the appearance and shape of each cell is vital for its functionality. The first cell I looked at was a cheek cell. The cheek cell was thin, flat, and overlapped slightly with the cells surrounding it.

For the red blood cell stock solution, a ratio of 1 drop of blood for every 1 mL of 0.9% saline solution was used. The total volume of stock solution created amounted to 50 mL of saline solution and 50 drops of the heparinized bovine red blood cells. The hypertonic solution of 5% NaCl solution was provided for this experiment. The 0.5% NaCl hypotonic solution was created by adding 0.5 g of NaCl to 100 mL of deionized water.
