To get admitted to a psychiatric ward, one typically needs to be in a mental health crisis that poses a risk to oneself or others. Usually, a mental health professional or a doctor will evaluate the individual to determine if hospitalization is necessary for their safety and well-being. In some cases, individuals can also voluntarily admit themselves if they believe they need intensive mental health support.

A sling psychrometer measures relative humidity by comparing the readings of two thermometers, one dry and one wet. It works on the principle that the rate of evaporation is influenced by the humidity of the air.

Oppositional Defiant Disorder is typically treated with a combination of behavioral therapy, family therapy, and sometimes medication. Cognitive-behavioral therapy can help the individual learn strategies to manage their defiance, while family therapy can address family dynamics that may contribute to the behavior. Medication may be considered in some cases if there are co-existing conditions like ADHD or anxiety.

A psychrometer is a type of hygrometer used to measure the relative humidity in the air. It consists of two thermometers, one with a dry bulb to measure air temperature, and the other with a wet bulb covered in a water-soaked cloth to measure the cooling effect of evaporation. By comparing the temperature readings of the two bulbs, the relative humidity of the air can be determined.

The logo of a doctor featuring a snake wrapped around a staff is called the Rod of Asclepius, which originates from Greek mythology. Asclepius was the god of healing and medicine, and the snake symbolizes renewal and healing due to its shedding of skin. This symbol has been associated with medicine and healthcare for centuries.

A person with no arms or legs is commonly referred to as a quadruple amputee.

Splinting is an effective first aid tip that is adopted during a fracture. Apart from other first aid tips one can use splinting to help with the injured part of the body.

A splint is a long and firm object that can be used to protect and support the fractured area. Ready-made splints are available in the market. In emergencies, one can also use splints that are available in a household such as cardboard, pillow, aluminum, rolled up newspaper, etc.

A splint is thus a necessary method to prevent damage to the injured area until the patient can visit a doctor for further treatment.

While using a splint one must carefully notice the blood circulation on the injured area is not blocked. If so, there will be a color change and this can be noticed and taken care of.

Broad materials like cloth or belts can be used to secure the splint from any damage.

Ranka Hospital, Pune provides the best treatment for bone fractures.

Yes, they have some medical applications, such as causing blood to ooze continuously so that the body's own blood supply will eventually take over and a severely damaged limb can heal and survive.

In combat. You first have to make sure the scene is safe. Move the wounded only if a life threatening situation exist. Once the person is secure and you have assessed the person needs help, and doesn't have a broken neck or some more serious affliction. Cover the chest wound with some sterile non porous material to act as a barrier to stop the flow of blood exiting the wound. Use a dressing to help control the bleeding. And use a bandage or dressing to hold it in place. Then go find professional medical help. If there are no proper medical or sanitary supplies near you. Improvise. Use your ID to seal the wound and strips of your shirt to make a bandage or a dressing.

If a wound is bleeding severely, it is best to cover it with a bandage and pressure. Direct pressure on an open wound may cause some damage, but stopping the bleeding is more important.

A splint and sling are what immobilize the extremity.

There is no "cure" for a fractured toe, the toe needs to be set and wrapped so it does not move. A cast cannot be placed on a single toe and a foot cast does not help as the toe will tend to move each time weight is place on the foot. A crutch or cane can be used for a few weeks but care needs to be taken by the patient not to move the toe.

place it in between the bandages.

Any type of wound can be dangerous an run the risk of infection. The most fatal type of wound is one that has punctured a major organ, or severed a major artery.

To make the ball go from right to left, kick the bottom right handside of the ball with the inside of your right foot. To make the ball go from left to right, hit the bottom left handside of the ball with the outside of your right foot. And the other way round for your left foot. The harder you hit it, the more it will bend.

Swathe

Is this a trick question? One atmosphere gives normal (earth) pressure so the partial pressure would be directly equivelant to the percentage of CO2 in the air you're breathing at that time. Hopefully nil, but if you have a rebreather there will be some or if you are in a small room where you or others have already been breathing there will be some. There will be some in normal air but it should be negligible.

The PP of CO2 at one atmosphere (at 15C at a pressure of 101325Pa) is 0.0314% of the total pressure, i.e. 14.7PSI in. or roughly 0.004616lbs/sq in. This assumes the diver is (a) on the surface (and doesn't mean 1atm above surface pressure or 29.4PSI or 33ft of sea water) and that his lungs are pressurized to exactly 1 ATM (which may be slightly off if he is holding his breath). This percentage may actually be less with a properly charged and tuned rebreather in that the CO2 scrubbing in the rebreather is intended not to remove all the CO2, but instead to reduce it to the same PP as one would find in a surface air mixture. This is as opposed to an open breathing system which, assuming an air fill and not mixed gasses, will have the same PP-CO2 as surface air and thus needs no adjustment.

This is important because the initial/normal breathing reflex is triggered by serum PP-CO2 (and not as is commonly thought, P-O2). A secondary breathing reflex pattern -- Cheyne-Stoakes respiration triggers off P-O2m but is not normal breathing and is diagnostic of severe CNS insult (i.e. if you're breathing this way you likely aren't conscious and are likely near death). Depleting all CO2 from the breathing source can result in depleted serum CO-2 which in turn fails to trigger the normal breathing reflex, and may result in hypoxia and syncope, resulant in death.

The partial pressure of CO2 in the inhaled air is irrelevant. The CO2 in the lungs does not come from the inhaled air, it comes from the blood, which creates around 40 mm Hg of CO2 in the lungs, about 100 times as much as is present in the atmosphere. This is a physiological norm, essential for maintaining correct pH of the blood, with deviations to either lower or upper side being equally dangerous.

The best method is to carry the injured person piggy back or over your shoulder in a fireman's carry.

Good answer, it leaves your hand(s) free, but remember to consider where on the body the injury is. It may not always be the best way

Unroll the gauze, and pack it directly into the wound while simultaneously applying direct pressure.

Place it between the folds of the emergency bandage
