There are a few preeclampsia signs in this patient like increased blood pressure and oedema. Magnesium sulphate is the drug used for preeclampsia but it was dangerous because it could depress the nervous system and kidney.

The nurse should monitor the patient respiratory rate, patellar reflex, and urine output. If there any sign of respiratory paralysis, the drug should be stopped

Precautions and warnings of nurses when using magnesium sulphate are:

Since it is a HYPERTONIC SOLUTION, INJECT SLOWLY.

The first intravenous administrations are to be carried out in hospital.

Comply with an infusion rate not exceeding 0.6 mmol magnesium-element per minute or 150 mg / min magnesium sulfate heptahydrate.

* The use of this medicine requires monitoring:

==> blood pressure during injection and perfusion,

==> magnesia; the treatment will be interrupted as soon as it is normalized,

* The dosage will be reduced in patients with renal impairment with increased monitoring of renal function, blood pressure and magnesium.

TO AVOID POSSIBLE INTERACTIONS BETWEEN SEVERAL MEDICAMENTS, and in particular with the quinidine (cardiac antiarrhythmics) and the curariants,

Restriction digest A:

Answer:

This question seem incomplete

Explanation:

This question seem incomplete. However, if the strand of the second fragment is what is provided above, then the answer is <em>51</em>

This strand/fragment is definitely a DNA strand because of the absence of uracil (U) or because of the presence of thymine (T). The four bases in a DNA are adenine (A), Thymine (T), cytosine (C) and Guanine (G). These bases also bind to one another in the pattern described below

A ⇆ T

G ⇆ C

Hence, the adenine (A) on one strand can only bind to thymine (T) on the complementary strand (and vice versa) while the guanine (G) on one strand can only bind to cytosine (C) on the complementary strand (and vice versa).

Hence, the letters seen is the question are representations of bases in a DNA strand/fragment. The number of letters/bases here are <em>51</em>

Column A Column B a. Astrocyte b. Axon c. Collateral d. Dendrite e. Myelin f. Neurilemma g. Neurofibrils h. Nissl bodies (chroma
xenn [34]

Answer:

1.) neurilemma (option f)

2.) nissil bodies (chromatiophillic substance)

3.) neurofibrilis ( option g)

4.) myelin ( option e)

5.) dendrite ( option d)

6.) collateral ( option c)

7.) astrocytes (option a)

8.) axon ( option b)

9.) Unipolar neuron (option i)

Explanation:

The neurological terms described above are different parts of a nerve cell or neurones. The nerve cells are the basic Structural units of the nervous system. They are highly specialised for transmitting electric impulses. They can also be grouped according to the number of processes they possess, for example, the UNIPOLAR NEURONS( those with one process only). Each neuron, however, is composed of the same basic parts which include:

--> The CELL BODY: they may be angular or oval in shape with a large nucleus and dense granulated cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm, rough Endoplasmic reticulum which contains CHROMATIOPHILLIC SUBSTANCE (nissil bodies) and Golgi apparatus are also seen.Network of threadlike structures known as neurofibrilis are also seen within the cell body and extending into axon.

--> DENDRONS: these are one or more extensions which branches to form many fine dendrites. The DENDRONS carry nerve impulses( action potential) that their dendrites receive to the cell body.

--> AXON: this is a long process which branches at it's free end to end in synaptic knobs. It carries electric impulses away from the cell body. Most times, a substance of Schwann cell known as MYELIN SHEATH which is composed of lipoprotein insulates axons and increases impulse speed.
