An 8-year-old child is being admitted to the hospital from the emergency department with an injury from falling off her bicycle. Which of the following will most help her adjust to the hospital?

1. Explain hospital routines such as mealtimes to her.
2. Use terms such as “honey” and “dear” to show a caring attitude.
3. Explain when her parents can visit and why siblings cannot come to see her.
4. Since she is young, orient her parents to her room and hospital facility.

Three-year-old C.E. is admitted to the Emergency Department (ED) fast track clinic. Her mother tells the nurse that C.E. has had a low-grade fever for $2$ days and is complaining of ear pain and a sore throat. Mrs. E. states that C.E.'s appetite has been “off,” but she has been drinking and using the bathroom as usual.

Mrs. E. is given a new prescription for azithromycin (Zithromax) PO $160$ mg qd $\times$ $5$ days.

5. Azithromycin is dispensed $200$ mg/$5$ mL. Calculate the dosage for Mrs. E. to administer to C.E

J.R. is a 28-year-old man who was doing home repairs. He fell from the top of a 6-foot stepladder, striking his head on a large rock. He experienced a momentary loss of consciousness. By the time his neighbour got to him, he was conscious but bleeding profusely from a laceration over the right temporal area. The neighbour drove him to the emergency department of your hospital. As the nurse, you immediately apply a cervical collar, lay him on a stretcher, and take J.R. to a treatment room.
Identify at least six findings that would indicate this complication is occurring

Differentiate between a primary and secondary head injury.

When you call push on a stack, where is the new element placed relative to the other elements in the stack? When you call pop , which element from the stack is returned?

Forty patients were asked how many minutes they had to wait in an emergency department before they were seen by a doctor. The results are below. Construct a frequency distribution table using five classes.
32 40 66 51 28 35 30 45 49 33
37 41 56 43 59 60 32 48 56 55
50 29 44 54 64 65 49 34 39 30
36 34 47 52 43 47 58 31 61 29

A patient is admitted to the emergency department with suspected carbon monoxide poisoning. Even though the patient's color is ruddy and not cyanotic, the nurse understands the patient is at a risk for decreased oxygen-carrying capacity of blood because carbon monoxide does which of the following:

1. Stimulates hyperventilation, causing respiratory alkalosis
2. Forms a strong bond with hemoglobin, thus preventing oxygen binding in the lungs
3. Stimulates hypoventilation, causing respiratory acidosis
4. Causes alveoli to overinflate, leading to atelectasis

Trapped on a deserted island, you salvage some copper wire and a generator to build a makeshift radio transmitter. (a) If you wrap the wire into an $8$-turn coil of radius $3.8 \mathrm{~cm}$ and length $25 \mathrm{~cm}$, what is its inductance? (b) What capacitance do you need to make an $RLC$ circuit with the coil that oscillates at the emergency beacon frequency of $406 \mathrm{MHz}$ ? (c) If you fashion the parallel-plate capacitor out of two aluminum squares, $5.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ on a side, what should be the separation distance between the two plates?

Five-year-old Amy wakes her parents up at 3 AM crying and complaining of a sore neck, a severe headache, and feeling sick to her stomach. She has a temperature of $40^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ $\left(104^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\right)$ and hides her eyes, saying that the lights are too bright. The emergency physician suspects meningitis and performs a lumbar tap. Using your knowledge of neuroanatomy, explain into which space and at what level of the vertebral column the needle will be inserted to perform this test. Which fluid is being obtained and why?

In each of the following sentences, circle any letter that should be capitalized and draw a slash (\/) through any letter that should be lowercase. **Example 1**. $\text{\textcircled}{\text{{d}}}$id you ask $\text{\textcircled}{\text{{d}}}$r. fishbein or her ${\sout{\text{D}}}$ental ${\sout{\text{A}}}$ssistant about your toothache during your appointment last $\text{\textcircled}{\text{{f}}}$riday? “In case of an Emergency,” the notice read, “Please call $911$ to reach ems or the police.”

Police cars, ambulances, and other emergency vehicles are required to carry road flares. One of the most important features of flares is their burning times. To help decide which of four brands on the market to use, a police laboratory technician measured the burning time for a random sample of 10 flares of each brand. The results were recorded to the nearest minute. Repeat Part b using Tukey’s method.

By the time his neighbour got to him, he was conscious but bleeding profusely from a laceration over the right temporal area. The neighbour drove him to the emergency department of your hospital.

What steps will you take to assess J.R.?

In an emergency, it is sometimes the practice of medical professionals to immerse a patient who suffers from heat stroke in an ice bath, a mixture of ice and water in equilibrium at $0 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }$, in order to reduce body temperature is $40.8 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C }$ must have her temperature reduced to the normal range, how much heat must be removed? (b) If she is placed in a bath containing 7.5 kg of ice, will there be ice remaining in the bath when her body temperature is $37.0 ^ { \circ } \mathrm { C } ?$ If so, how much? If not, what will the final water temperature be?

An emergency drain pump, shown in figure, should be able to pump $0.1 \mathrm{~m}^3 / \mathrm{s}$ of liquid water at $15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}, 10 \mathrm{~m}$ vertically up, delivering it with a velocity of $20 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$. It is estimated that the pump, pipe, and nozzle have a combined isentropic efficiency expressed for the pump as $60 \%$. How much power is needed to drive the pump?
