Question
Chapter 9, Problem 2CAQ3
Summary Introduction
Case summary:
A woman of age 44 years was found unconscious in the living room by her husband. She was quickly taken to a hospital. The vital signs showed that the blood pressure was slightly high, the heart beat was increased, and the blood sugar levels were also elevated.
Characters in the case:
44 year old woman, her husband, and the physician.
Adequate information:
After giving insulin therapy to the patient, the vital signs came down.
To determine:
Whether the H+ (proton or hydrogen ion) can readily move across an individual’s blood-brain barrier or not.

Case 3: Raynaud’s Phenomenon
Raynaud’s phenomenon is a condition in which the digits (fingers and toes) become ischemic (lack blood) after exposure to cold or with emotional stress. The condition is due to excessive sympathetic stimulation of smooth muscle in the arterioles of the digits and a heightened response to stimuli that cause vasoconstriction.
What receptors of the adrenergic nervous system is/are involved in the phenomenon. Justify your answer.
What adrenergic drug will be appropriate for this condition. Explain its mechanism of action in managing this condition.
Select the options below that are long term effects of altitude hypoxia.
Select 3 correct answer(s)
Hyperventilation
Submaximal heart rate is elevated
Decreased hematocrit
Increased mitochondrial density
Max cardiac output stays the same
If stroke volume is 0.1 liters and heart rate is 100 beats per min, what is cardiac output?
Group of answer choices
100 liters per min
10 liters per min
1000 liters per min
5 liters per min

- I need help with a respiratory question, thank you, I really appreciate it Stroke volume can be calculated using which formula? Group of answer choices End-diastolic volume – end-systolic volume Ejection fraction × heart rate Ejection fraction × end-systolic volume Cardiac output ÷ end-diastolic volumearrow_forward9. A patient's cardiac output is measured as 5849.58 mL/min using the Fick's method. The spirometer measures an oxygen content in 600 mL of arterial blood. The spirometer measures 23.5 mL of oxygen for every 1000 mL of venous blood. If the oxygen uptake is 350 mL/min, find the oxygen content in 600 ml of arterial blood in ml.arrow_forwardCase scenario While working in the Emergency Department, a patient was brought in by ambulance with 2 arrow wounds. The first arrow is still in the patient on the left side, entering anteriorly between the 7thand 8th ribs in a 90 degree angle, the arrow head protruding posteriorly. The 2ndarrow is located in the posterior cervical triangle. Question 4 (CLO 4, 5) Describe the cardiovascular structures (systemic and pulmonary components) that are affected by both arrows. Explain the effectof this cardiovascular injury on the Hematocrit and Hemoglobin values.
