- Case Study: A mother expecting her first child miscarried at home on June 22, 2010. The pregnancy was six months along. An ambulance was called at 4:57 a.m. The EMTs helped the mother to the stretcher and then went inside to retrieve the fetus from the bathroom floor. The baby was seen moving its head. The EMTs requested ALS to the scene. The baby was placed inside a small container. The ALS personnel visually assessed the fetus and stated the fetus was “non-viable”. There was never a fetal heart check in the field. Mother and fetus were transported to the hospital arriving at 5:16 a.m. At the hospital, a nurse noticed that the fetus was warm and had a heartbeat. The baby was raced to the special care nursery and placed on a warmer. The staff then proceeded to resuscitate the baby. The baby was dusky and noted to have a heart rate of 30 with respirations of 6-8 at 5:40 a.m., and cardiopulmonary resuscitation was initiated. The oxygen saturation was 2-10%. The baby was intubated at 5:55…arrow_forwardTry to avoid plagiarism ( your assignment should be under 30% of plagiarism ). - The word accounts should not be more than 800 words in each question. - You should submit your assignment before the due date.

To minimize error in longitudinal CT measures, the ideal would be to have scans performed using the same scanner by the same technician; this is rarely possible in research or clini- cal settings. From a practical standpoint, it is important that technical information such as tube voltage, scanner type, and slice thickness is documented given that inconsistencies in these variables could affect interpretation. Prospective research using CT, in addition to the aforementioned technical vari- ables, should attempt to control for patient positioning by establishing a standard protocol with the imaging department. Although it may not be feasible, establishing a collaborative relationship with radiologists and medical physicists before attempting to use CT scans to assess body…arrow_forward
