Explain tertiary prevention
"Treating" and preventing further complications from a disorder or disease after the person has the condition
What are examples of primary prevention?
Vaccinations and Handwashing
What are examples of secondary prevention?
PAP smears for STDs, lab work for HBA1C check, mammogram
What are examples of tertiary prevention?
Rehab for hip surgery, relearning ADL's after amputation, Wound care after stroke to prevent pressure ulcer
What happens to the body during the sympathetic phase of the flight or fight response?
Pupils dilate, salivation inhibited, increase in HR, bronchodilation of airway, increased respirations, glucose release, inhibit GI/GU.
What happens to the body during the parasympathetic phase of the flight or light response?
Rest and Digest. Pupils constrict, salivation occurs, decreased HR, bronchoconstriction,decreased respiration, GI/GU systems resume action
Explain the role of the nucleus
control center of the cell, where DNA and genes are stored, produces mRNA to help build body proteins
Explain the role of the mitochondria
Powerhouse of the cell. Provides energy in ATP, and has its own set of DNA
Explain the role of the ribosome
produces RNA to produce proteins through transcriptions of DNA and translation of RNA into a protein
Explain the role of the lysosomes
helps breakdown and digest dead cells, organelles, or tissues
Explain the role of the rough ER
folded membranes that move proteins around the cell. Has ribosomes attached to it and helps produce proteins for the cell membrane
Explain the role of the smooth ER
helps the Liver and kidney cells to detoxify, lipid metabolism, synthesis of hormones, and calcium storage
Explain the role of the peroxisome
membrane cells that contain oxidase and catalase to detoxify harmful chemicals, breakdown hydrogen peroxide and filter metabolic wastes
Explain the role of the Golgi body
stacked membranes that act as the sorter and packager for proteins from the ER. Helps move things in and out of cell [Show Less]
