The document discusses body temperature measurement and normal ranges. It explains that the average normal oral temperature is 37°C (98.6°F), but may vary from person to person and throughout the day. Factors like exercise, menstrual cycle, and time of day can cause temperature to fluctuate by up to 0.6°C (1°F). Different types of thermometers measure temperature from different body sites, and each has advantages and disadvantages. Accuracy depends on proper technique. A fever is indicated by higher than normal temperatures ranging from 38°C to 39.9°C orally and 37.4°C to 39.4°C under the arm.

A glucose meter is a medical device for determining the approximate concentration of glucose in the blood. It can also be a strip of glucose paper dipped into a substance and measured to the glucose chart. It is a key element of home blood glucose monitoring (HBGM) by people with diabetes mellitus or hypoglycemia. A small drop of blood, obtained by pricking the skin with a lancet, is placed on a disposable test strip that the meter reads and uses to calculate the blood glucose level. The meter then displays the level in units of mg/dl or mmol/l.

New Drug Discovery and Development .....NEHA GUPTA
The "New Drug Discovery and Development" process involves the identification, design, testing, and manufacturing of novel pharmaceutical compounds with the aim of introducing new and improved treatments for various medical conditions. This comprehensive endeavor encompasses various stages, including target identification, preclinical studies, clinical trials, regulatory approval, and post-market surveillance. It involves multidisciplinary collaboration among scientists, researchers, clinicians, regulatory experts, and pharmaceutical companies to bring innovative therapies to market and address unmet medical needs.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

2. One of the basic pieces of data collection
necessary in the medical setting is body
temperature.
The measurement of body temperature may be
helpful for monitoring whether a person is ill,
or whether treatment is working.
A high temperature is a fever.
3. The hypothalamus is the thermostat for the
human body.
Temperature receptors located all over the
human body send signals to the heat and cold
sensitive neurons in the hypothalamus.
The hypothalamus then triggers the body to
perform certain actions in order to keep the
body within a "safe" range of temperature.
4. Temperatures can be different depending on:
1) Type of Thermometer:
Glass or Chemical Dots
Electronic or Tympanic
2) Body Site
Oral, Axillary, Rectal, Ear
5. 1) Glass
Once viewed as the “Gold Standard”
Must be left in for several minutes
Up to 7 minutes for an accurate temperature!
Now associated with adverse events
Rectal or oral trauma
Breakable
Mercury exposure
6. Single use
Disposable & inexpensive
Axillary, Rectal, Oral
Can be difficult to read
Long measurement time needed
Up to 7 minutes for an accurate temperature
7. Safe & inexpensive
~Often inaccurate because:
Long measurement time needed
Patient must be still
Patient must be positioned or held
Not recommended for young children
Must document as an axillary temp and NOT
an oral temp
8. Thought to be as accurate as an oral temp
Needs lubrication
Long measurement time needed
~May cause rectal trauma & cannot be used with:
1) Newborns
2)Diarrhea
3)Rectal surgery or bleeding
Patient may be embarrassed
Patient must be positioned or held
Must document as a rectal temp
9. Comfortable & easy, no positioning needed
~Accurate temps when proper technique used
Must place thermometer tip in left or right
mouth pocket under tongue
IS influenced by hot & cold fluids
NOT influenced by breathing
10. Long measurement time
~Should not be used with:
Confused or uncooperative patients
Infants & small children
Oral surgery or oral trauma
History of seizures or chills
11. Automated Temperature Machines
Electronic and infrared thermometers
Convenient
May save time & labor
12. Thermometers are calibrated in either degrees
Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F),
depending on the custom of the region.
Temperatures are most often measured in
degrees Celsius.
13. The average "normal" body temperature ( oral
temperature) is 37°C (98.6°F).
It may actually be 0.6°C (1°F) or more above or
below 37°C (98.6°F).
Also, normal body temperature changes by as
much as 0.6°C (1°F) throughout the day,
depending on how active the person is and the
time of day.
Body temperature is very sensitive to hormone
levels and may be higher or lower when a woman
is ovulating or having her menstrual period.
14. Results: Body temperature
Normal: The average normal temperature is 37°C (98.6°F).
But "normal" varies from person to person. The
temperature will also vary throughout the day,
usually being lowest in the early morning and
rising as much as 0.6°C (1°F) in the early evening.
The temperature may also rise by 0.6°C (1°F) or
more if you exercise on a hot day. A woman's
body temperature typically varies by 0.6°C (1°F)
or more through her menstrual cycle , peaking
around the time of ovulation
Abnormal: Oral, ear (tympanic), or rectal temperature
Fever: 38°C (100.4°F) to 39.9°C (103.9°F)
High fever: 40°C (104°F) and higher
Armpit (axillary) temperature
Fever: 37.4°C (99.4°F) to 39.4°C (102.9°F)
High fever: 39.5°C (103°F) and higher
