radiation straight to the back of other areas of the abdomen; 20% with severe
sequelae of organ failure
Know where pain is located with pancreatitis: chronic - Answer: epigastric,
radiating to back
Know how hepatitis A is transmitted - Answer: Transmitted through fecal-oral
route. Fecal shedding followed by poor handwashing contaminates water and
foods leading to infection of household and sexual contacts
Stress incontinence - Answer: the urethral sphincter is weakened so that transient
increases in intra-abdominal pressure raise the bladder pressure to levels that
exceed urethral resistance. Causes include childbirth and surgery, postmenopausal
atrophy of the mucosa, and urethral infection. May follow prostate surgery in
men.
urge incontinence - Answer: detrusor contractions are stronger than normal and
overcome the normal urethral resistance. The bladder is typically small.
Mechanisms: Decreased cortical inhibition of detrusor contractions from stroke,
brain tumor, dementia, and lesions of the spinal cord above sacral level. Also
hyperexcitability of sensory pathways ie: bladder infections, tumors, and fecal
impaction. Deconditioning of voiding reflexes ie: frequent voluntary voiding at low
bladder volumes.
