Chapter 13 deals with the food supply and food safety. Using scientific evidence, take a stand on either the use of GMOs or Organics (do not discuss both). Are you pro or con? You only need to choose one of these topics but your discussion MUST be based on science not emotions. Comment on another student’s post that is opposite your opinion and use scientific evidence to support your viewpoint. You should use at least 3 sources for your post and include them at the end.

1. A patient remains on mechanical ventilation after 2 weeks of unsuccessful weaning. The physician explains to the patient and his family that, to prevent complications, the endotracheal tube must be removed and an incision must be made into the trachea for the insertion of a tube that allows for oxygen exchange. The physician places the name of the surgical procedure, known as a __________________________________ on the informed consent form.

2. Robert S. has a history of smoking 2 packs a day for 30 years. He is admitted to the hospital for a surgical procedure to remove his voice box for the treatment of throat cancer. This surgical procedure is known as a__________________________________.

3. Harry M., a coal miner with a history of lung cancer, is admitted with bronchial hemorrhage. The physician documents this finding as __________________________________, which is another term for bronchial hemorrhage.

4. Maria V., a singer who has been experiencing hoarseness, comes to the hospital for diagnostic testing. The physician explains that he will use a __________________________________ to view her vocal cords.

5. A 15-year-old patient who just returned from summer camp comes to the clinic complaining of sore throat, fever, and difficulty swallowing. A throat culture is obtained which reveals a streptococcal infection. The physician prescribes antibiotics to treat this infection, known as _____________________.

6. A premature infant becomes infected with respiratory syncytial virus. This virus causes inflammation of the smaller bronchial tubes, know as the __________________________________.

7. A 48-year-old homeless person is brought to the emergency department by police. The emergency department physician notes an infected wound on his right calf that is imbedded with dirt. The physician prescribes a whirlpool treatment, which is a type of __________________________________.

8. Ahmed S. is admitted to the hospital with shortness of breath. While performing the physical examination, the physician notes accessory muscle use. This finding is seen with the naked eye and therefore part of the __________________________________ examination.

9. The physician prescribes oxygen at 4 liters/minute via nasal cannula (NC) for a patient diagnosed with pneumonia. When the physician documents the effectiveness of treatment in the progress notes, he might abbreviate the prescribed oxygen therapy as __________________________________ at 4L/minute via N.C.

10. An 83-year-old patient is transferred from the nursing home with fever, dehydration, and shortness of breath. A chest X-ray reveals a right lower lobe infiltrate. The physician diagnoses ___________________________, an acute inflammation of the lungs caused by a bacterium, virus, or chemical irritant.

11. Charles N. is diagnosed with black lung disease, also known as ______________________________, after working in a coal mine for 30 years. Based on this patient’s diagnosis, the health care team should discuss advanced directives with the patient to make sure they understand his health care wishes.

12. A patient undergoes an open lung biopsy. The pathologist takes the specimen and examines it with an instrument designed to view very small structures, known as a ____________________________.
