high-tech nursing

Today a lot of skilled nurses use many high-tech tools, these nurses work at schools or other places and especially in hospitals.
They use high tech tools such as the automated external defibrillator or AED; this can shock a person’s heart with an electric stun and restart a heart that isn’t breathing well. Another is measuring a patient’s oxygen level called the pulse oximeter that clamps the end of the patient’s finger nails to get the oxygen level of the person’s blood. Or delivering the exact amount of medication to a patient called the infusion pump.
The high-tech harvesting is a tool called an endoscope that removes the largest vein in the leg without hurting or tearing the tissue in the leg. Paul Smith a specially trained nurse said this is the best thing he has done because it doesn’t damage the tissue and loosens the vein from the surrounding tissue and pulls it from the leg.
The virtual training most nurses go through is the simman a mannequin that is lifelike and the students practice on these. The mannequin tells the students what they did wrong and what they did right. Some nurses use video game technology that helps them give better patient care.

future fibers

As of today there are slot of scientist coming up with a lot of different thing we don’t know about! Such as textile fibers, I honestly didn’t know anything about that… most of these people (scientist) took some of these classes’ textile engineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemistry, or material science.
They build better textiles on different types of materials and they are the people that created the space fabrics for the astronauts. Before they made the suit for these astronauts they tested it on a satellite and put it on mars. The suit has to be movable and no air can go through.
Wendy Krause that’s works at NC state university college of textiles, studies and works with thin molecules called polymers. She became an expert and studied chemistry. She says these molecules are even smaller then a piece of hair and they look like spaghetti when they are bunched together and you can not see them even on a typical microscope. She uses these polymers for fiber so the mats can solve different problems like resist heat and chemicals, and to be made as a firefighter gear. Some resist bacteria or grow tissues for skin grafts. Some doctors could patch damaged organs or blood vessels.

perscription for success

Catherine Newkirk from North Carolina is a pharmacist. Newkirk says she decided to become a pharmacist because of her local pharmacist from her hometown, and loved helping people with what they need the most.
Most pharmacist work in different places such as the Hospitals, clinics, retail drugstores, insurance companies, manufacturers, conduct research, nursery homes, and homebound patients. All these pharmacist have to go to school and get degree to become one, mainly universities let you take a 6 year doctoral program to earn you PhD, and most go back to find their doctorates.
The most difficult thing for pharmacists are managing others that you work with and they say its hard to find trained people who want to work. the hours for these doctors are long like about 12 hours a day and only 2 days off, but they say it is fun and they don’t regret even a minute of their job.The doctors also say that they love to work for patients because they love to advice them in a better way to take meds and the interactions. Newkirk says it’s a great job for others but a hard work and you always have to pay attention to what you’re doing.
