Question

Anita is a 10-year-old girl attending a rural elementary school. Anita has asthma, complicated by allergies to ragweed and cedar elm. Her asthma symptoms increase dramatically on days in which the pollution count is particularly high and she becomes very ill on days in which there is an ozone alert. Anita's mother has been very overprotective. She provides countless physician's excuses, so that Anita is not able to participate regularly in her school's physical education program. Anita's lack of activity has contributed to obesity, which has created a vicious cycle. It is difficult for her to move, so she doesn't move, leading to greater obesity, and her asthma symptoms increase in severity. How can the physical educator help Anita with her physical activity and encourage participation in PE?

address-the-following-anita-is-an-active-75-year-old-retiree-she-recently-underwent-hip-replacement-surgery-due-to-advanced-osteoarthritis-in-her-left-hip-during-hip-replacement-surgery-anit-67854

Address the Following: Anita is an active 75-year old retiree. She recently underwent hip replacement surgery due to advanced osteoarthritis in her left hip. During hip replacement surgery, Anita laid on her side, the gluteus maximus was cut and moved out of the way and her hip was dislocated by flexion, adduction and inward rotation of the femur. The head and acetabulum surface of the femur was removed and replaced with artificial components and everything was sewn back together. Anita has recovered from the procedure and wants to return to her normal level of activity but is frustrated by the lack of ROM in her hip joint. Prior to designing and exercise prescription for Anita, you assess the ROM of her hip using specific range of motion tests with a goniometer. Hip ROM Assessments Performed: -Flexion -Extension -Abduction -Adduction -Medial Rotation -Lateral Rotation Questions: -Which of the above movements would you expect Anita to be deficient (below the reference range)? -Based on the description of the procedure in the narrative, explain why she is deficient in the movements that you identified.

Twenty-one-year-old Lisa Long has been suffering from asthma and is now experiencing an asthma attack while taking an afternoon walk with her sister. It is a cold, windy, early spring weekend. She complains of acute shortness of breath and has audible wheezing, episodic cough, and chest tightness with itchy red watery eyes and a stuffy, runny, itchy nose. These symptoms become worse within 5 minutes. Her sister called 000 and paramedics promptly attended to Lisa, who was fully conscious, appeared wide-eyed and frightened, and unable to breathe effectively. She was immediately transferred to the nearest hospital for full respiratory function assessment and treatment of acute asthma. A physical test reveals a heart rate (HR) of 120/min, respiratory rate (RR) of 38/min, with signs of accessory muscle use. Chest auscultation reveals decreased breath sounds bilaterally, with inspiratory and expiratory wheezes. Lisa is coughing up small amounts of thin, clear sputum and has an arterial oxygen saturation of 90%. Nebulized salbutamol, oxygen by facial mask, and systemic corticosteroid were administered. A second small-volume nebulizer treatment was ordered 20 minutes later. Chest auscultation revealed diminished wheezes; RR was 24 at this time and HR was 102. Over the next 24 hours, Lisa showed steady improvement and was discharged for follow-up with her local GP to review her asthma action plan and change any medications as needed to help prevent future exacerbations. Question 3/1. List two factors that could have triggered Lisa's acute asthma attack and explain the link between the named factors and her asthma. (4 marks) Question 3/2. Explain the pathophysiological steps leading to an acute asthma attack. In your answer, you are expected to link type 1 hypersensitivity reaction to the role of histamine in acute asthma. (4 marks) Question 3/3. Briefly explain the mechanisms of action of (i) salbutamol and (ii) corticosteroids in the treatment of acute asthma and describe their benefits in Lisa's condition. (4 marks) Question 3/4. Explain the mechanism of action of anticholinergic/anti-parasympathetic medications and their potential benefit(s) in asthma treatment. (3 marks).

00:01 So here we have been given that anita, who is an 75 year old retiree, she recently underwent a hip replacement surgery due to which she was having the problem of osteoarthritis.
00:24 And that is the reason why she went into the hip replacement surgery in her left hip and during this replacement surgery, she laid on her side where.
00:34 The gluteus maximus was cut and then removed out of the way where a hip was dislocated by the flexion, adduction and that of the inward rotation of the fume.
01:02 And the head and the acitubulum surface of the femur was removed and replaced with artificial components and everything was tuned back together.
01:11 Now as she is recovered from the procedure, she wants to return to a normal level of activity but is frustrated because some of the lack of rome, that is range of motion at her hip joint.
01:26 Prior to this exercise prescriptions for anita, we assess that the rome of her hip has some specific range of motion which is test in the glonometer.
01:38 So some hip roam assessments were performed.
01:44 Accordingly, we have been asked about the movement which she will be deficient into from the following options.
01:58 And it should be based on what her medical history was.
02:01 So here our correct option will be extension and that of the lateral rotation.
02:16 These two range of motions she will be deficient into...
