Neoadjuvant therapy does not increase survival when compared to adjuvant therapy. It only changes the timing of treatment and can change surgical options if the tumor is shrunk enough. If this occurs, the patient may only require a lumpectomy plus radiation therapy instead of needing a mastectomy Main benefit of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (breast cancer patient) A comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) is a multidisciplinary evaluation to assess life expectancy and risk of morbidity and ...

The Normal Cell Cycle -The cell cycle refers to the ordered seres of processes of DNA replication and mitosis, or cell division -Cell nucleus regulates these processes by gathering and processing complexes molecular information Interphase and Mitotic Phase Cell division produces two identical cells through these two major phases During interphase: Cell grows and DNA is r...

Barrier (skin, mucous membranes, flora of skin/gut) 2. Cellular components (phagocytes, natural killer cells, granulocytes, macrophages) Adaptive immunity: Follows innate immunity ...

When coordinating positive-pressure ventilation with chest compressions, how many events are performed each minute? 30 breaths, 90 compressions What is the ideal depth of chest compressions for a newborn? One-third of the anterior-posterior diameter of the chest A newborn requires complex resuscitation. You have intubated and are administering positive-pressure ventilation and chest compressions. Which 3 signs are used to evaluate the effectiveness of your actions, and the need ...

You are resuscitating a critically ill newborn whose heart rate is 20 bpm. The baby has been intubated and the endotracheal tube insertion depth is correct. You can see chest movement with PPV and hear bilateral breath sounds, but the colorimetric CO2 detector does not turn yellow. What is the likely reason for this? The endotracheal tube is not in the trachea. Excessive ventilation pressure. Epinephrine contamination. Low cardiac output. low cardiac output What are the primary metho...

After the initial steps of newborn care, a baby is apneic. What is the most important and effective action to take in the resuscitation of this baby? Provide positive-pressure ventilation. Perform chest compressions. Provide additional vigorous stimulation Provide supplemental oxygen. Provide positive-pressure ventilation. During the resuscitation of a newborn, you auscultate the apical pulse and count 10 beats over a 6 second period. What heart rate do you report to your team? 60 b...

what is the normal infant respiratory rate? 40-60 breaths per minute what is a normal infant heart rate? 120-160 bpm what do you do if the baby has labored breathing or persistently low oxygen saturation? CPAP can CPAP be given using a self inflating bag? No what are the 5 initial steps after birth: provide warmth, position head and neck, clear secretions if necessary, dry, and stimulate what are the 4 pre-birth questions? gestational age? clear fluid? ...

4 pre-birth questions 1. expected gestational age 2. is amniotic fluid clear 3. additional risk factors 4. umbilical cord management plan how long should umbilical cord clamping be delayed for eligible babies? at least 30-60 secs why is delayed cord clamping important placental gas exchange will continue and more oxygenated blood will be returned to baby from the fetal blood that remains in the placenta potential benefits of delayed cord clamping for preterm babies re...

What is the single most important and effective step in neonatal resuscitation? Ventilation of the newborn's lungs Abnormal Transition Findings -Irregular Breathing, absent breathing, or rapid breathing -Slow or fast heart rate -Decreased Muscle Tone -Pale Skin or Blue Skin -Low oxygen saturation -Low blood pressure NRP algorithm- First Step Antenatal Counselling Team Debriefing Equipment Check After the birth of the baby, what do you ask? 1. Term Gestation? 2. ...

When is the placement of endotracheal tube recommended? A- HR<100 Intubation skills be available? A- In hospital and immediately available Confirming endotracheal tube C- exhaled Co2 and inc HR Co2 detector not yellow D- Low cardiac output 8th edition cardiac monitor recommended B- When alternative airway is inserted Laryngoscope blade sizes D- single 0 not 00 HR during chest compression C- 60 sec and use cardiac monitor HR low and poor ...

Your team has provided face-mask PPV with chest movement for 30 seconds. When is placement of an endotracheal tube strongly recommended? The baby's heart rate remains less than 100 bpm and is not increasing. During a delivery, when and where should a person with intubation skills be available? In the hospital and immediately available What are the primary methods of confirming endotracheal tube placement within the trachea? Demonstration of exhaled carbon dioxide (CO2) and a ra...
