Mrs. Jasper has end-stage chronic renal disease (ESRD). She missed two dialysis sessions when her husband became ill and was unable to drive. In addition to having clinical manifestations of numerous imbalances detected at her next dialysis session, Mrs. Jasper says her skin is very itchy. Based on her statement about itching, what additional assessment(s) should you perform?

Answers

Answer:

A urea analysis of her bloodstream should be done

Explanation:

This is because most people who have renal failure usually have itching problems. The build up of urea in the bloodstream causes the itching.

Due to Mrs. Jasper having end-stage chronic renal disease (ESRD) and missing two dialysis sessions it is safe to say urea analysis should be done.

Gunther is making 100 mL of an antibiotic cream that is 15% antibiotic. He is using 18% and 10% creams. What is the ratio of the 18% cream in the final mixture?

Answers

Answer:

The ratio of the 18% cream in the final mixture is 1:1.6

Explanation:

Let the amount of the 18% cream be x and that of the 10% cream be y

x + y = 100••••••(i)

18% = 18/100 = 0.18

10% = 10/100 = 0.1

0.18(x) + 0.1y = 0.15(100)

0.18x + 0.1y = 15 •••••(ii)

from equation i, y = 100-x

Substitute this into i

0.18x + 0.1(100-x) = 15

0.18x + 10 - 0.1x = 15

0.18x - 0.1x = 15-10

0.08x = 5

x = 5/0.08

x = 62.5 mL

So, the ratio of the 18% cream to the final mixture will be;

62.5:100

= 62.5/100 = 2.5/4 = 1:1.6
