Is more or less like a study :rckn:group. If you think you have any question you can thread and pple will respond with answer. Just thread in question with no answer to see what you have learn so far.
Absence of bubbling in the water seal compartment indicate what?:thnkg:
A pt is admitted to medical surgical unit due to internal bleeding. Heparin is prescribed for the pt. Before heparin therapy, In what doses should heparin be started?
A- small doses followed by higher doses
B- higher doses followed by smaller doses
what is the most reason for not given heparin by IM and PO?
Heparin is normally given in low to high doses, to act prophalaxisly in the prevention of thrombosis.
You do not give PO doses of Heparin because it is not absorbed that way, and you do not give IM because of an increased risk for hematoma in the injection site. Heparin is best when given either IV or SubQ..

Heparin is best given in high doses follow by smaller daily doses. Because the pt in the question is experiencing internal bleeding and heparin should be given quickly to increase the blood coagulation and later can be given in smaller doses daily.
SUPINE POSITION because u cannot position the patient to the operative side, a detached retina will stay in place in a Supine position. the others options will affect the healing process .
