passive immunity - Transfer of performed antibodies against a specific antigen from protected or immunized individual to an unprotected or non-immunized individual Examples of passive immunity - IgA in breast milk, maternal IgG crossing placenta, antitoxin, serotherapy (direct injection of antibodies) Potassium Value normal range( intercellular cation) - 3.5-5.0 mEq/L Sodium value normal range (major cation of extracellular fluid) - 135-145 mEq/L Calcium value normal range - 9-11 mg/...

• What is allostasis?: the process by which the body responds to stressors in order to regain homeostasis • Sequela: a disease or condition which is caused by an earlier disease or problem • Complication: the act or process worsening of a condition or disease process • What happens during the alarm phase of Hans Selye's General Adaptation Syndrome?: fight or flight stage; heart rate increases, adrenal gland releases cor- tisol (the stress hormone) and you receive a boost of adrenalin...

Homeostasis o A state in which all systems are in balance. State of equilibrium. Maintaining internal conditions stable. Allostasis: o Ability to successfully adapt to challenges. Intricate regulatory processes orchestrated by the brain. Epidemiology: Study of diseases within a population. Epidemiology is the method used to find the causes of health outcomes and diseases in populations. Review the different levels of disease prevention such as primary, secondary, and tert...

Stages of general adaptation syndrome 1. Alarm Initial reaction Sympathetic nervous system 2. Resistance Adaptation Limit stressor 3. Exhaustion Adaptation failing Disease develops Edema Excess fluid in the interstitial space Dehydration (ECF volume deficit) Can occur independently without electrolyte defects Decrease in fluid level leads to increase in level of blood solutes Cell shrinkage Hypotension Hypovolemia or fluid volume deficit Decrease...
