When pipes are not lagged they give off a very high amount of heat energy if the pipe contains hot materials. Also workers nearby could burn themselves if they make physical contact with the hot surface. Insulating lagging such as fibre glass, magnesia and slag wool all have low thermal conductivity

care assessment that was done on 09/30/2016 “Patient evaluated for pressure related injury, No evidence of pressure related skin damage at present. On the center of back, skin fold, and left buttock, 1 cm, re-epithealizied, pink tissue was noted”. The patient’s initial Braden score was 9 that indicated the patient’s high risk for pressure-related skin damage. On the following skin evaluation sessions by wound care, Stage II pressure ulcers were assessed on the right buttock, induration of the left
disease and stroke worldwide. Prehypertension stage is defined as a systolic blood pressure between 120 and 139 or a diastolic pressure between 80 and 89. It is meant to identify adults who are at high risk for developing hypertension. Hypertension stage 1 is between 140 and 159 or diastolic pressure is between 90 and 99. It will probably need to take medication. Hypertension stage 2 is 160 or higher or diastolic pressure is 100 or higher. This stage usually must modify lifestyle habits and take a diuretic

involves the net movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane from an area of lower solute concentration to an area of higher solute concentration. Water travels across the membrane via two methods. The first method is through the phospholipid bilayer by diffusion and the second through aquaporins, proteins on the membrane which contain a hydrophilic core which enables them to function as water channels. When osmotic pressure on the both sides of the plasma membrane is the same, cell volume stays
ABSTRACT In the past, in diesel engine fuel pressure was controlled mechanically and depending on the camshaft. Due to this geography lots of problems occurs like engine emission, engine torque, engine efficiency etc. To overcome these problem or for the better performance caterpillar invented new technology called Hydraulically actuated Electronic Unit Injection (HEUI) fuel systems. 1.1 Introduction: To achieving outstanding fuel economy, high torque output and to reduce the emission produced
1. Can temperature ever be lower than dewpoint temperature? why or why not? Air Temperature is a measurement of the average kinetic energy of the particles in the air, or how hot or cold the air is. Dewpoint is the temperature at which water vapor begins to condense out of the air and form dew, and a measure of how much moisture is in the air. If the temperature reaches the dewpoint then dew will begin to form. If the temperature is at the dewpoint and the temperature falls, the dewpoint must
Screening/Treatment/Prevention There are a vast number of risk factors that are associated with the development of hypertension, both modifiable and non-modifiable. The majority of the modifiable risk factors are linked to an unhealthy lifestyle. Examples of these are: a diet high in sodium, a sedentary lifestyle, alcoholism, the use of tobacco, and type-2 diabetes. All of these, except the use of tobacco, can contribute directly one of the most prevalent risk factors, obesity. Excess fat on the body can damage and cause strain
• What is a decubitus ulcer? o A decubitus ulcer is a technical term for what is commonly known as bedsores or pressure sores as well. Therefore, a decubitus ulcer is a sore developed by an invalid because of pressure caused by lying in bed in one position. The sores are an injury to the skin and underlying tissue. It can range from mild reddening of the skin to severe tissue damage and sometimes infection that go as deep as into the muscle and bone. • What are the stages of decubitus ulcers? o
