Patel 3 Action Assessment 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. D C A C C B A The rib cage may have been broken which means the patient may have punctured lung or lungs. This may also be causing the difficulty breathing that she is experience. 9. Plasma, red-blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, all make up blood. 10. By measuring vital signs, the first responder will be able to see if there has been any damage to the brain, heart, of any other life-threatening diseases. Objectives Respiratory: The respiratory system brings oxygen into the body and removes carbon dioxide. This system is made up of the upper airway, trachea, lungs, ribs, bronchi, and diaphragm. The upper airway is made up of the nasal cavity, mouth, epiglottis, esophagus, and larynx. The exchange between oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs in the lungs. When breathing occurs, the diaphragm moves downward while breathing in and relaxes when exhaling. Circulatory: The circulatory system is responsible for pumping blood through the body. It includes the heart, lungs, arteries, veins, and capillaries. The blood is pumped by the heart, get nutrients and oxygen from the lungs, and spreads through the body through the arteries, veins, and capillaries. Musculoskeletal: The muscular system works to support and provide movement for the body. There are three types of muscles, skeletal (voluntary), smooth (involuntary), and cardiac (heart). The skeletal system works to support the body, protect vital structures, and manufacture red blood cells. The skeletal system is divided into 7 areas, the skull, spine, shoulder girdles, upper extremities, rib cage, pelvis and lower extremities. The bones come together at joints. There are three types of joints, balland-socket, hinge joints, and fused joints. The muscular and skeletal system rely a lot on each other to complete their tasks. Nervous: The nervous system is what keeps the body functioning. It controls everything from dancing to breathing. This system consists of the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. The brain controls everything you do, voluntary and involuntary. The spinal cord is made up of nerves which allow the brain to communicate with the rest of the body. Some nerves relay what the body is feeling while others relay what the brain wants a certain body part to do. Story Uncle George, who is a doctor, is testing his nephew and niece about their bodies. So, tell me what do you call a body part closer to your head? I know! I know! Its called superior, and far away from the head is inferior. Good job Xsu. Now tell me, what is anatomy? Thats easy; anatomy is the study of the body. Whats that word that means study of normal function of an organism? That would be physiology, but good job Cia. Ok tell me, what system are both the trachea and diaphragm a part of? Uncle George, these are too easy, that is the respiration system. Well thats right but if its too easy, then tell me what does epidermis mean? Umm. Exactly so watch what you wish for young man. Doesnt epidermis mean the outer layer of skin? Not bad at all Cia. Hmmm ok, what is the difference in expiration and inspiration? Expiration is breathing out and inspiration is breathing in, see Im not dumb. Now Xsu I never said that. This is the last question before bed, what is anatomical position? Hurry, get onto your bed and show me! The kids race into their beds and after Uncle George says goodnight, they fall into a deep sleep.
