unconscious person,\nplace in a supine position and open airway, start oxygen flow from cylinder and adjust rate so that the flow inflates the positive pressure bag, secure the mask over the persons face, compress the postie pressure bag once ever 3 to 5 seconds to inflate the persons lungs, observe chest movement and exhalation, if person is breathing but breaths are weak time the administration of ventilations to support the persons reparations\nconscious person\nadjust the rate at 7 to 12 L per minute

The breathing tube is called a nasal cannula.  She is breathing about 1-6 liters per minute of oxygen.  Generally people who are on oxygen have one of two conditions.  Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder or Congestive heart Failure.  It is possible, considering you stated she couldn't see, that she also has diabetes.  Any of these conditions can be fatal.

It sounds suspiciously like a homework question, but here we go...\n\nAt this point, her body is producing significant amounts of catecholamines, hormones such as adrenalin, etc. These hormones cause the heart rate in increase and the blood vessels to constrict. The idea is to get more blood to the vital organs.\n\nThere is a fairly narrow window here to resuscitate the patient. Once the blood pressure starts to fall, she's on a slippery slope in the wrong direction.\n\nThings to add for extra points:\nThe FIRST things that will change in a patient in hypovolemic shock (low blood volume) is a change in her mental status and a drop in urinary output. This is from reduced circulation to the brain and kidneys.\n\nGood luck!

it depends on your energy expenditure during the race, the 5% improvement of HCT improves oxygen delivery to tissues about 2.5%. so the capacity for exercise would improve by 2.5%.

there should be assorted bandages, adhesive tapes, rolls of gauze, gauze pads, antibiotic ointments (single packs keep them sterile), antiseptic whipes, iodine whipes, ammonia inhalant pads, cold packs, scissors, tweezers, latex or non-latex gloves, first aid booklet. And I'm not sure if keeping oxygen is legal or not, If your not sure by now, check with an ambulance service or city hall, or even police to double check. I've heard that you need a prescription to have Oxygen unless it's in a health-care facility or you are medical personnell.\nStandard first aid kits come with all this and sometimes more, and also include the booklet about each product in them for you.   I hope this helped!

Medical oxygen probably has to be USP (United States Pharmacoepia) grade, which means there's a long list of things it can't contain.  It might also have to be dry, but I'm not sure on that one.

yes!\n\nhttp://www.medhelp.org/perl6/cardio/archive/14037.html\n\na number of ailments cause it. However you can get it to 50-60 or so with it being normal if you're an avid runner.

You could write something amusing and clever about the flavored oxygen available in Oxygen bars, where you can buy Oxygen instead of beer.  "Oxygen, can't LIVE without it!"  (1) \n"Portable oxygen available for your dance party!  Not just for geriatrics!" (2) \nYou could say:\n"Get high on prescription flavored oxygen, but don't light a match or you won't be able to LIVE because of oxygen!" See article source (3) \n\nWhat a fun assignment!  So many possibilities!

I think it would logically.\nHyperbaric chambers with pressures of 2-3atm are also often oxygenated. Thus, the partial pressure of oxygen in the air would be 2-3times greater than in normal conditions. Therefore, the heart wouldn't need to beat as fast as it normally does to oxygenate the body's tissues.\nOn the ECG, this change would manifest itself as an increase in the R-R interbeat interval.

It depends on where CPR take place. \nIf it is happening outside of hospital, it's impossible to get 100% oxygen. \nAnd if a person breathes 100% oxygen for long time,it can damage your body. \nAnd under some situations, you need to give low oxygen concentration to keep patient alive, e.g., in some chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) patients., high concentratin oxygen can kill them.\n{Carbon dioxide in the air can help to stimulate the respiratory center of the brain (which is life saving for some COPD patients). Because they have low blood oxygen for long term,so their respiratory control center in the brain no longer react (to stimulate breathing) to low blood oxygen. Only increase in the blood carbondioxide can stimulate their respiratory control center.}\nSo,100% oxygen is not the best for all.

hi, METs is used a lot by cardiologist, where as exercise scientist refer to straight out numbers. One met is equal to 3.5ml of oxygen used by the body per min. So 10 METS is equal to 35ml of oxygen per min. The average aus male has a met range of 11 to 12 (40ml/kg/min). \n10 METS is probably hard work. If you want to see if your aerobics program is working measure your resting HR in the morning, with a good training program heart rate should decrease one  beat per week.\nhope it helped, goodluck

The amount of oxygen dissolved in water is measured in mg O2/liter of water and varies with temperature and atmospheric pressure at the surface. It can be anywhere from 5-12 (approximately) mg/liter.

From 90% to 100% saturated of oxygen (at 2800 meters over sea level)\n\nMeaning your saturation is fine.\n\nWhy do you need it measured?

Deep breathing counting in for a count of six and out for a count of four - this is a good technique for calming yourself and your heart as it regulates your intake of CO2 and gives you something else to concentrate on.  Rescue Remedy is also fantastic if you need an immediate result - I swear by it in any stressful situation!  Check if the herbs within are legal in your state/country (I'm in UK).\nSee below...

There are many factors in deciding how a regular TM will be done. ( there are also drug induced TM) The first is your age. There's a formula for this. It is:220-age x 85=. This result is called '85%'of your target heart rate,and determines what your heart rate should increase to in order to get a good test. Now sometimes this isn't possible. Again, there are several factors involved. You may not be in very good shape, physically. You may be on medications that don't allow your H.R. to increase. You may have respiratory limitations. If you can up your H.R. to 70%, this should end as a good test, too. Just ask your doctor. It's his call.\n\nThe reason you want to raise your H.R. is so they can see what your heart does under stress.Thus, a STRESS test. I'll tell you now, how they prepare you for this test. The first thing they will do is put sticky type patches on your chest. Then they will connect electrodes to the patches.(No! there is no electric current involved). This allows a visual view of different areas of the heart. At this point, they will start your walk. It will be very slow for the first 3 minutes, and then they will tell you seconds before they increase the grade and speed of the T.M. So, every three minutes you will experience this gradual increase in speed and grade. Remember, their trying to get  your H.R. to rise. They will talk to you all along to insure you are doing alright. Don't be frightened. You will be watched carefully. You must communicate though, and don't try to be the tough guy/girl.Don't be a wimp either. No. This not an easy test. You will be tired and winded when you're finished. Just do your best. This is a very good test.They will be able to determine what they need to in order to better see what's going on. When completed, they will seat you and watch your recovery for about ten minutes. This a part of the test. They want to see how quickly your heartrate returns to normal. This is called you're resting heartrate. Again, talk to them. Ask your questions, and get answers that make sense to you. Many people do not do this. They get home and start questioning their understanding.\n\nI also want to leave you with some advise. I am a Psy. Therapist, specializing in cardiology. This is what I tell all of my patients. First; do not be intimidated by doctors or health care workers in general. You deserve to get every bit of information necessary  to  satisfy all of your medical concerns. If there is something you don't understand, do not settle. Often you will need to be assertive because  when you do understand, you'll be better equiped to take care of yourself in the future. It's very important to have a partnership with your doctor, not a dictatorship. There are so may great docs out there, but if you're the slightest bit uncomfortable with your relationship, find another doctor. It is really  as simple as that. You will find the one that fits you.\n\nGOOD LUCK.\n\ngrizz\n\nP.S.  E-mail me, if you would like. I would be very happy to speak with you.\n\nDuckling702@yahoo.com
