Ventilation The transport of air from the atmosphere to the lungs and out
again.
Edema Caused by decreased plasma protein
Clinical Manifestation of Hyperthyroidism Tachycardia
What electrolytes are higher in ICF Potassium , Magnesium, Phosphates and Proteins
(Intracellular Fluid)
Steps of Laceration Correction Homeostasis, Vasospasm (blood vessels narrow to
decrease blood flow & increase BP), Platelet Plug Formation
(activation, aggression, and adherence of platelets into a
plug that serves as a barrier against blow flowing out of
the vessels).
Coagulation (clotting, changes blood to gel.
Homeostasis A tendency to maintain a balanced or constant internal state;
the regulation of any aspect of body chemistry, such as blood
glucose, around a particular level

inside of the appendix
clinical manifestations of Appendicitis Pain near umbilcus that moves to LRQ= McBurney that
increases 12-24 hours. Aggravated by movement

unexplained weight loss.
Acute Respiratory Failure (ARF) Life threatening condition resulting from COPD, Asthma,
ARDS, ALS, Alcohol/drug overdose, spinal cord injury.
Clinical Manifestations of Acute Respiratory Shallow respirations, headaches, tachycardia, dysrhythmias,
Failure (ARF) lethargy, confusion, oxygen levels drop below 50 and carbon
dioxide become high above 50.
pulmonary embolism (PE) Emboli=originate in venous circulation, travels to the right side
of heart the to pulmonary circulation creating a
