In blood transfusion practice, the ABO is the most important blood group system for blood group compatibility (Schwarz & Dorner, 2003). This is because A, B antigens are strongly immunogenic and upon stimulation elicit a strong antibody response and their alloantibody can cause destruction of transfused red cells (Enosolease & Bazuaye, 2008). The ABO blood group system is considered to be safe and cost effective in most transfusion except in case of multiple transfusions where extensive cross matching

which the musculoskeletal system responds to acute exercise. These include: Musculoskeletal: • Increased blood supply- When we exercise there is an increased demand from the body for oxygen. More oxygen is required in order for our muscles to function; they require more oxygen as a result of the muscles having to work harder when we exercise. To allow an increased heart rate which brings more blood around the body warming up must occur on the behalf of the person. When the muscles work there is also

Intro to Pharmacology Case Study 4 Chapter 41 The Furosemide (Lasix) which lessen the fluid volume by escalate the amount of electrolytes and water that the kidneys are getting rid of. When there is less fluid volume the blood pressure will go down. Since her blood pressure is decreasing, the rate of her heart beat will decrease, diminish the amount of work that the heart has to do, and lowering how much fluid has built up in the lungs. The nurse needs to know how fast Furosemide (Lasix)

Summary of the Anatomy of the Frog As in other higher vertebrates, the frog body may be divided into a head, a short neck, and a trunk. The flat head contains the brain, mouth, eyes, ears, and nose. A short, almost rigid neck permits only limited head movement. The stubby trunk forms walls for a single body cavity, the coelom (Anatomy of the Frog). All the frog's internal organs--including the heart, the lungs, and all organs of digestion--are held in this single hollow space (Anatomy of the

Calcium channel blockers were first identified in the lab of German pharmacologist Albrecht Fleckenstein in 1964. These drugs disrupt the movement of calcium; they are most commonly used as anti-hypertensive drugs in order to decrease blood pressure in patients who are hypertensive. They are often used with elderly patients to reduce stiffness of large vessels. They are also used to alter heart rate and prevent vasospasm, which is a prolonged constriction of major arteries in the body. Recently,

Warm up: - Warming up increases overall body and muscle temperatures, which increase blood, flow to the active muscles and a warm-up increases the body and muscle temperature, which helps to increase the rate of energy production. Contraction and reflex times are improved with higher muscle temperatures, however, exercising without warm-up places a potentially dangerous stress on the heart. Warming up reduces the stress on the heart during intense physical exercise and soft tissue injuries are less
