Which of the following drugs would be used to treat a child who has increased ICP resulting from cerebral edema? a. Sodium bicarbonate b. Atropine sulfate c. Mannitol d. Epinephrine hydrochloride

C) Mannitol

Step-by-step explanation:

The normal brain has a limited content of cerebrospinal fluid and can only take up a little more quantity before the intracranial pressure begin to increase. Intracranial pressure may increase due to traumatic brain injury leading to swelling of the brain called cerebral edema.

Mannitol is a sugar alcohol found naturally in fruits and vegetables. It is an osmotic diuretic. An osmotic diuretic prevents the reuptake of water and sodium.

Mannitol used this mechanism in the reduction of increased intracranial pressure following cerebral edema.

A dosage of 0.25-1g/kg intravenously is given initially followed by a maintenance dose of 0.25-0.5g/kg intravenously every 4-6 hours.

+25 = x

step-by-step explanation:

here x is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are 7 and 24.   by the pythagorean theorem, 7² + 24² must equal x²:

x² = 49 + 576 = 625.   thus, x = +√625 = +25 = x

answer: the two figures are congruent.

step-by-step explanation: they're congruent because figure efgh is reflected across the x and y axis but it was also rotated.

hope it !
