The Hs and Ts is a mnemonic used to aid in remembering the possible reversible causes of cardiac arrest. [1] A variety of disease can lead to a cardiac arrest; however, they usually boil down to one or more of the "Hs and Ts". [2] [3] [4]
(11) Diamond (4.5 pt, 1.5875 mm). Fonts originally consisted of a set of moveable type letterpunches purchased from a type foundry . As early as 1600, the sizes of these types—their "bodies" [ 1 ] —acquired traditional names in English, French, German, and Dutch, usually from their principal early uses. [ 2 ]
1–3 days (loss of nuclei) Depends on size of infarction: Neutrophil infiltration: 12–24 h: 1–3 days: 5–7 days: Karyorrhexis of neutrophils: 1.5–2 days: 3–5 days: Macrophages and lymphocytes: 3–5 days: 5–10 days (including 'siderophages') 10 days to 2 months: Vessel/endothelial sprouts* 5–10 days: 10 days–4 weeks
Red blood cell count (RBC): Sometimes increased early (normal range males: 4.3–5.9 million/mm 3; normal range females: 3.5–5.5 million/mm 3). The loss of surface area per cells cause the body to mass produce red blood cells. The spleen will filter spherocytes out and change this value.
By default, the output value is rounded to adjust its precision to match that of the input. An input such as 1234 is interpreted as 1234 ± 0.5, while 1200 is interpreted as 1200 ± 50, and the output value is displayed accordingly, taking into account the scale factor used in the conversion.
Radiography is an important tool in diagnosis of certain disorders. Medical diagnosis (abbreviated Dx, [1] D x, or D s) is the process of determining which disease or condition explains a person's symptoms and signs. It is most often referred to as a diagnosis with the medical context being implicit.
Before taking the test, the patient may be instructed to fast for a period before the test will take place and to stop taking any medications. On the day of the tilt table test, an intravenous line may be placed in case the patient needs to be given medications quickly; however, this may influence the results of the test and may only be indicated in particular circumstances.
A score of 1 is assigned to a benign test result, 2 applies to a suspicious test result, and 3 applies to a malignant result. The sum of the scores of all three procedures is the triple test score. If the total summed score from the three tests is 3 to 4 then the diagnosis is most likely benign. A total summed score of 5 is considered suspicious.
