What is true about hypercapnia? Choose 2 answers
It is defined as a partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) > 45 mm Hg.
It is defined as a partial pressure of oxygen (pO2) < 60 mm Hg.
It is defined as a respiratory rate < 12 breaths/minute.
It activates the respiratory center to increase breathing rate.
It triggers erythropoietin production.
Enlargement in one or more lymph nodes, usually due to infection.
Lymph nodes are filled with white blood cells that help the body fight infections.
Painless hematuria
**Can be detected with diagnostic tests such as antigen test, CT or ultrasound.
It is defined as a partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) > 45 mm Hg.
It activates the respiratory center to increase breathing rate.
The collapse of a small number of alveoli resulting in reduced gas exchange. The full
inflation of bronchioles is inhibited in this process.

What is the relationship between rhabdomyolysis and myoglobin?
Regurgitation (or leakage of the valve).
When the valve(s) do not close completely, it causes blood to flow backward through the
valve. This reduces forward blood flow and can lead to volume overload in the heart.
Rhabdomyolysis is the breakdown of skeletal muscle due to direct or indirect muscle injury.
This can lead to the release of myoglobin into the bloodstream, which can cause kidney
damage if not treated immediately.
#Sodium level - will be high
#Osmolality (serum or plasma) - will be high
#Osmolality (urine) - will be low
#Polydipsia (excessive thirst)
Rheumatic fever, which is related to strep infections.

What is myocarditis?
Interferes with your body's normal recycling process, in which new bone tissue gradually
replaces old bone tissue. Over time, bones can become fragile and misshapen. The pelvis,
skull, spine and legs are most commonly affected.
Narrowing of the mitral valve, restricting blood flow into the main pumping chamber (left
ventricle).
**Can cause fatigue and SOB.
Inflammation and damage of the heart muscle, known as myocardium. Caused by a viral
infection, but can also be caused by an infection of bacteria, fungi, parasite or a reaction to
a drug.
An autoimmune disease of the large intestine, specifically the colon and rectum. It affects
the mucosal layer of the large intestine.
Symptoms:
#Blood and mucus in stool
#Predisposes one to colon cancer
