GGT (gamma glutamyl transferase) most commonly used biochemical marker of alcohol drinking. Chronic alcohol drinking of >4 drinks/day for 4 to 8 weeks significantly raises GGT.
Serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is an enzyme found in high concentrations in the heart and liver months of chronic drinking increases AST
MCV (mean corpuscular volume is an index of red blood cell size. heavy alcohol drinking for 4 to 8 weeks increases MCV
Blood alcohol concentration BAC of >0.08 = legal intoxication in most states (3 standard drinks)
Dependence physiologic dependence on substance
Tolerance requires increased amount of substance to produce same effect
Cocaine inoxication Pupillary dilation
Opiate intoxication Pupillary constriction
Opiate withdrawal similar to influenza symptoms and pupillary dilation
IPV screening- Primary care every first visit for a new chief complaint, every new patient encounter, every new intimate relationship, and all periodic exams
IPV screening- ER/Urgent care all women/all visits
IPV screening- OB/GYN each prenatal and postpartum visit, each new intimate relationship, all routine GYN visits, all family planning visits, and all visits in STI visits
IPV screening- Inpatient part of all admissions and discharge
Abrasion a wound caused by rubbing the skin or mucous membrane
avulsion the tearing away of a structure or part
bruise superficial discoloration due to hemorrhage into the tissues from the ruptured blood vessels beneath the skin surface, without the skin itself being broken; also called contusion
contusion a bruise; injury to tissues without breaking of skin; blood from broken blood vessels accumulates, producing pain, swelling tenderness
cut incision
ecchymosis a hemorrhagic spot or blotch, larger than petechial, in the skin or mucous membrane, forming a non-elevated, rounded or regular, blue or purplish patch
hematoma a localized collection of extravasated blood usually clotted in an organ, space, or tissue
hemorrhage the escape of blood from a ruptured vessel, which can be external, internal, and/or into the skin or other organ

laceration the act of tearing or splitting; a wound produced by the tearing and or splitting of body tissue usually from blunt impact over a bony surface
lesion a broad term referring to any pathologic or traumatic discontinuity of tissue or loss of function of a part
Nociceptors designed to detect painful sensations from the periphery and transmit them to the CNS
Nociceptors are located within the: skin, connective tissue, muscle, and the thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic viscera
Nociceptors carry the pain signal to the CNS by 2 afferent fibers A& and C
A& fibers are myelinated an larger in diameter so they transmit the pain signal rapidly to the CNS
C fibers are unmyelinated and smaller and they transmit the signal more slowly. These are diffuse and aching and last longer after the injury.
transduction occurs when a noxious stimulus in the form of traumatic or chemical injury, burn, incision, or tumor takes place in the periphery.
transmission (second phase) the pain impulse moves from the level of the spinal cord to the brain.
perception (third phase) indicates the conscious awareness of a painful sensation.
modulation (fourth phase) the pain message is inhibited through this phase or else we would continue to experience pain.
Examples of nociceptive pain skinned knee, kidney stones, menstrual cramps, muscle strain, venipuncture, or arthritic joint pain.
Neuropathic pain implies: an abnormal processing of the pain message from an injury to the nerve fibers.
Deep somatic pain comes from sources such as the blood vessels, joints, tendons, muscles, and bone.
Cutaneous pain comes from skin surface and subcutaneous tissues
Rating scales can be introduced at what age 4 to 5 years of age
PAIN AID scale Pain assessment in advanced dementia scale- score of 4 or more indicates need for pain management.
Reflexive sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) or complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) chronic progressive nerve condition, characterized by burning pain, swelling, stiffness, and discoloration of the affected extremity.

Serum albumin is a common measurement of visceral protein status
Serum albumin half-life 17-20 days
Normal serum albumin 3.5-5.5g/dL
Serum transferrin half life 8-10 days
True /False- Serum transferrin may be a more sensitive indicator of visceral protein status than albumin. True
C-reactive protein (CRP ) a plasma protein marker of inflammatory status produced by the liver, is used to monitor metabolic stress.
CRP normal values < 0.1 mg/dL
Marasmus (protein calorie malnutrition) is due to inadequate intake of protein and calories or prolonged starvation.
