my average rhr is 67. 103 lb almost 17 year old female who is slightly active. it this optimal? what would my heart rate be while sleeping if i am physically healthy?

Question

8 year old has been sleeping on his back for over an hour his resting heart rate at wrist is 108. Hes on two different sedatives. Is his BPM a litle high?

Answer 1

Heart rate would be slightly lower than the normal resting rate. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!

Answer 2

11-42%: This is very common, with as many as 42% of moms experiencing ppd. The risk is higher if there is a personal or family history of ppd, depression, or anxiety.

Answer 3

Onset of PPD..: Postpartum depression can present anytime in the first year. It is most common to begin within the first 3 to 4 months. However it can begin later in the first year, particularly with changes like abruptly stopping nursing, beginning of birth control pills, etc. If you suspect you may have ppd, contact your dr. And seek help from a mental health specialist with expertise in treating it.

Answer 4

Do not need EEG: Eeg does not diagnose or predict epilepsy. Slowly reduce the med, practice good health habits, and see how you do. Three months of no medication and no seizures can be considered a "cure".

Answer 5

I don't know: Most probably, u will not have any other episodes of seizures. If u did not have any seizure activity in 14 yrs., why r u still on dilantin. Phenytoin has serious side effects and u should discuss with your neurologist, if u can be tapered off dilantin. No one can predict that your next epileptic episode will happen during your sleep. Consult your neurologist. Thanks.

Answer 6

EEG is useful: If there is a lot of concern about a seizure after you stop dilantin, your neurologist can check an eeg while you are cutting down on the dilantin. Any return of unusual eeg activity may suggest that you need to remain on an antiepileptic agent. I do not favor keeping someone on long-term Dilantin as it can cause a lot of side effects.

Answer 7

No: A simple pulmonary function test is not an exercise test requiring running or biking. It is just recording breathing volumes during normal breathing and forced expiration.

Answer 8

No: In more than 30 years of pulmonary medicine i've never heard of a heart attack occurring during pulmonary function tests.

Answer 9

Yes, no problem: In fact i had surgery just last week, and Propofol was used for my anesthesia too. I have sleep apnea, and there were no issues whatsoever. Your physician and anesthesiologist do need to know about your apnea, so be sure you tell them in advance.

Answer 10

It depends: On the anesthetic plan and the experience of the anesthesiologist. Having sleep apnea is not necessarily a contraindication to having Propofol used in anesthesia but is definitely a consideration in any type of general anesthetic.

Answer 11

Yes: When used appropriately. Only an anesthesiologist should administer Propofol since it is very potent and can lead to respiratory depression and hypotension.

Answer 12

Yes: It is not so much the drug used but the training and experience of the practitioner that is important. Any drug, such as Propofol that can cause one to undergo general anesthesia or deep sedation needs to be monitored closely and with proper technique (use of the drugs) people with sleep-apnea should do well.

Answer 13

Lack of knowledge ..: Probably it was a combination of ignorance of basic biology (there was no way of testing sperm or even knowing that there could be sperm problems almost half the time) plus a patriarchal society ...

Answer 14

Guys weren't checked: Usually, the first stop when a couple cannot conceive is the woman's gynecologist. The standard teaching with infertility is that the male factor plays a role about 50% of the time, so a semen analysis should always be obtained and properly evaluated by a lab when a couple can't get pregnant. If there are significant abnormalities it should be repeated and the patient referred to a urologist.
