What symptom is more common to a duodenal ulcer than a gastric ulcer?

A) Cardiogenic shock:
Cardiogenic shock occurs when the heart is unable to pump enough blood to meet the body's needs, often due to myocardial infarction (heart attack) or other conditions affecting the heart's function. The client's history of a recent infection does not align with the etiology of cardiogenic shock.

B) Neurogenic shock:
Neurogenic shock occurs due to dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system, typically as a result of spinal cord injury or severe brain injury. It is characterized by widespread vasodilation and bradycardia. The client's history of a recent infection does not align with the etiology of neurogenic shock.

C) Hypovolemic shock:
Hypovolemic shock occurs due to a significant loss of blood volume, such as from trauma, hemorrhage, or dehydration. While infection can lead to fluid loss and dehydration in some cases, the client's history of a recent infection suggests a different etiology, specifically septic shock, which is driven by the systemic inflammatory response to infection.

D) Septic shock.
Septic shock is a type of distributive shock caused by a systemic response to infection. It occurs when an infection triggers a widespread inflammatory response, leading to vasodilation, increased capillary permeability, fluid loss from the bloodstream, and impaired tissue perfusion. The client's history of a recent infection suggests that the shock may be septic in nature.

A. Metered-dose inhaler (MDI): MDIs deliver a specific dose of medication in aerosol form. They consist of a pressurized canister containing medication and a mouthpiece or mask for inhalation. Patients must coordinate inhalation with actuation to ensure proper medication delivery to the lungs.

B. Nebulizer: Nebulizers convert liquid medication into a fine mist that can be inhaled directly into the lungs. They are commonly used for patients who have difficulty using MDIs or require higher doses of medication. Nebulizers are often used in acute care settings or at home for patients with chronic respiratory conditions.

C. Hypodermic syringe: Hypodermic syringes are used for administering injections subcutaneously, intramuscularly, or intravenously. They are not used for inhalation medication administration.

D. Feeding tube syringe: Feeding tube syringes are used for administering liquid medications or enteral feeds through feeding tubes directly into the gastrointestinal tract. They are not used for inhalation medication administration.

E. Dry powder inhaler (DPI): DPIs deliver medication in powdered form, which is activated by the patient's inhalation. Unlike MDIs, DPIs do not require coordination between actuation and inhalation. Instead, patients inhale forcefully to disperse the medication into their lungs.
