My Precept. Experience

In my precept I was able to see and experience the real setup of the laboratory I learned new things about the test being done in the laboratory and see the different machine used in the laboratory. In that 24 hours duty I felt tried because of we are standing most of the time observing the procedures that the interns and the staff does. In the night of our duty I wanted to sleep but I can't sleep because of my body find my bed to sleep. I'm always wishing that it's time for us to go home for us to sleep and take a bath. I enjoyed our receptorship, learning the laboratory setup and meeting with the AUFMC Laboratory staff.

Drug Testing on Schools

Do you agree that drug testing should be done as a requirement for admission to schools?

I do agree that drug testing should be a mandatory requirement for schools because it can lessen the possibility of crimes in the school.

It can also help the student to think sanely and responsible.

In school and work, as we all know drugs can cause mental problems. If students are under the influence of drugs they cannot work as good students and also as good citizens of our country. Drug testing would benefit the school and also the students.

"Be a good student, don't be affected by drugs."

8.-10.__________ When toxins are not eliminated, give possible causes that can occur.

Case Problem:

A 23 year old call center agent was complaining of unexplained headaches or back pain and unexplained weight gain, frequent allergies or allergic symptoms. In his medical history you found out that he was a heavy drinker of alcohol when he was not yet working.

• What is the probable diagnosis of the patient?
• What is the effect of the toxin on the patient's health?
• What treatment can be administered to the patient?

Answers:

1. Detoxification

2. Urine

3. Kidney

4. Liver

5.True

6. True

7. Toxin

8-10. Cell destruction,malfuntion of the organs.

Case Problem Answers:

1.The patient is experiencing over alcohol in the circulation.

2.Toxins can cause disorders to the body which lead to malfunction of the organ of the body.

3.Proper diet,drinking plenty of water can help to lessen the toxin in the body.

Detoxification of Urine

Detoxification is a test used to determine for the probable cause by a accumulation of toxic substances in our circulation.These toxins are can be detected in the urine.The urine is used to identify or measure the particular toxin which the body accumulate, by these we can be able to diagnose or pinpoint the type of toxin in the treatment of the disease.

Our kidney is the main organ who help to filter the toxins, and these toxins are excreted in the urine.The kidney is also the organ which we need to detoxify for the proper removal of toxin in the urine.

If you need to urinate, please do so!!!..Because, urine is always made up of toxins that is needed to be eliminate, if you do not urinate these toxins will be reabsorbed by the excretory system that can cause disease.

We can detoxify the kidney to produce minimal amount of toxins present in the urine by drinking plenty of water.

Pancreas

a hammer-shaped lobulated organ
white with a tinge pinkish color
resembling a grape fruit- acini hanging on a stem
an organ producing juices;
the juices with varying enzymes
enzymes which are need for digestion
and maintenance for blood glucose
an organ classifying cells
alpha and beta cells
alpha for gluca. beta for insu.

an accessory organ of the digestive system
an organ described as the heart of digestion and secretion
a piece of cake with a bitter taste,
a forgotten pill that can result to a high risk of illness.
a cause of illness that can cause you death
a death caused by a simple organ
a simple organ, known as the Pancreas

Case

A. Mr. Alvin Reynaldo a 40Yr. old restaurant manager,while checking on his employees suddenly fainted. The staff at the restaurant brought him to the hospital for medical assistance.

When Mr. Reynaldo recovered, the doctor took his medical history and found out that he had experienced polyphagia, polyuria and polydypsia previously.

1-5. What is the likely diagnosis of Mr. Reynaldo's condition ? Explain your answer.

Mr. Reynaldo had signs of diabetes mellitus. The cause of the loss of consciousness of the patient is probably because of the high levels of glucose in his bloodstream.. Polyphagia, polyuria and polydypsia are three of the major symptoms of diabetes.

6-10. What laboratory test will the clinician be requesting?Explain your answer.
Blood glucose analysis for the detection of the level of glucose in the blood of the patient.

11-17. Hormone/s is/are responsible for Mr. Reynaldo's disease.
Insulin and glucagon are the primary hormones responsible for the level of glucose in the blood.

18-20. What treatment can you suggest?
Proper diet and exercise. Proper intake of the medication given to the patient.


Sample Questions:
1-2. Hormone that can be secreted by the pancreas _ insulin ________ & __Glucagon_______

3. Pancreas can be seen in the?__ retroperitoneal__________

4. Found in the in endocrine that secretes insulin and glucagon_ Pancreatic islets_________

5. It works with common bile duct to empty the duodenum_Pancreatic duct

6. Part of exocrine that secretes digestive enzymes_ Acinar gland(acini)______________________

7. These enzymes digest protein that come from the stomach and pancreatic amylase for the digestion of carbohydrates from the oral cavity_ Proteolytic enzymes (_Trypsin, Chymotripsin,Carboxy peptidase)

8. Stimulates the pancreas for the production of rich solution, which in turn is stimulated by the presence of fatty acids and amino acids from the duodenum__Cholecystokinin_______________

9. Alpha cells secrete glucagon
______________
10.Beta cells secrete insulin ______________

Pancreas

Anatomy and Physiology of the Pancreas


Pancreas

• An elongated gland extended to duodenum-spleen
• Having a head, body and tail that has exocrine portion that secretes insulin and glucagons
• Seen at retroperitoneal

A. PARTS

• Pancreatic islets- originate in endocrine that secretes insulin and glucagons.
• Pancreatic duct- unites with common bile duct to unfilled the duodenum.
• Acinar gland(acini)- a branch of exocrine that secretes digestive enzymes.

B. FUNTIONS


• Exocrine secretions has bicarbonate;

 That neutralized acidic juice or chime
 Stops pepsin digestion
 Provides proper function of the pancreatic enzymes.
 Helps in digestion of all classes of food.


• Proteolytic enzymes

 Trypsin
 Chymotripsin
 Carboxy peptidase

These enzymes digest protein that came from the stomach and pancreatic amylase for the digestion of carbohydrates from the oral cavity.

• Pancreatic enzymes

 Lipases- for lipid digestion
 Nucleases- lessen DNA and RNA from its nucleotide component.
 Secretin- produced watery pancreatic solution that has bicarbonate. Acidic chyme is the stimulus for the production of secretin.
 Cholecystokinin- stimulates the pancreas for the production of enzyme rich solution, which stimulated by the presence of fatty acids and amino acids from the duodenum

C. ENZYMES PRESENT IN THE PANCREAS

 Alpha cells- secretes glucagons
 Beta cells- secretes insulin.
