Answer:

The condition that results from a partial blockage of the coronary arteries is ischemia.

Explanation:

Ischemia is defined as the deficit or absence of blood flow to a tissue, which can produce damage and -if persistent- can cause the death or infarction of that tissue.

The coronary arteries are responsible for carrying blood to the heart muscle or myocardium and, in the case presented, an obstruction of blood flow through these arteries causes ischemia in the myocardium.

The disease related to ischemia of the myocardium is the ischemic cardiopathy, which can present itself in a reversible form -like <u>angor pectoris</u>- or irreversible as in the <u>acute myocardial infarction</u>.

The other options are not true because:

<em>     A and B. </em><em><u>Hypertension and hypotension</u></em><em> are related to the degree of blood pressure, which depends on other factors. </em>

<em>     D. </em><em><u>Cardiomegaly</u></em><em> is the enlargement of the heart chambers, producing failure of pump function, and may be a consequence of ischemic heart disease or high blood pressure.</em>

Olin [163]

Answer and Explanation:

When we talk about reduction of costs in a sector such as the health sector, it is paramount that the decisions taken are wisely done and also the best possible. So that every possible need is met to the best capacity.

For the needy, stopping treatment is wrong and should not be done. When there is an adjustment in budget, then a bit of prices could be put on some certain things which have high costs. A limit can be set on the frequency at which a person can visit the camp.

One criteria that can never be neglected is hiring skilled professionals and this should never be violated. The standard of care should not be limited.

In a private firm this decision could be different since funds may be high and better also advanced and better equipments may be afforded.

Explanation:

The variables that we see in the TMB equation are fundamental also to understand that babies do not have the same energy demand when it comes to meeting their vital signs as an elderly or adult, that a woman does not have the same energy expenditure as the Neither man since it processes hormonal situations much more catalytic of energy such as menstruation, people with rickets or obesity will have different energy demands, and also lastly, people with higher heights spend more energy during locomotion ...

We name all these examples because they relate the height, weight, sex and age, fundamental and strictly necessary variables to know the TMB of any human being.
