Hi there, thanks for asking a question here.

It sounds like the patient has sensorypeceptul disturbances. This disturbance is when a person feels a weakness, numbness, and tingly sensation on their feet.

What should the nurse do? The nurse should make sure the patient's bed rails are low to make sure it is easy to get in and out of bed. The nurse should assist the patient when they need to get out bed. To prevent the risk of infection, an aseptic technique and more fluids could help the patient.

Hope that helps! ★ If you have further questions about this question or need more help, feel free to comment below or post another question and send the link to me. -UnicornFudge aka Qamar

Amphotericin treats problems like fatal fungal infection.

Further Explanation:

Amphotericin is a type of drug used to treat problems like fatal fungal infection. It stops the growth of fungi. Fungi is the multicellular organism that are heterotrophic in nature which means they feed on other organism. There are some fungi which are edible but some are very harmful to the human beings.

The amphotericin-b is injected into body through the veins. It is given slowly through the intravenous infusion depending on the severity of the infection the amphotericin-B can be given upto many weeks or months.

The common side effect of the drug may include: vomiting, stomach ache, nausea, headache, joint pain, diarrhea and weight loss.

If the patient who has been taking amphotericin reports weakness, numbness, and a tingling sensation in his feet then he might be suffering from sensory disturbances. The nurse should help the patient when they get out of the bed and in order to prevent the risk of infection they should use the aseptic technique.

On a recent expedition to a remote region of northern canada, scientists uncovered skeletal remains from about 100,000 years ago. surprisingly, all the skeletal remains, which included many species from differing biological families and spanned about two thousand years, showed evidence of experiencing temperatures in excess of 1000 degrees fahrenheit (or 538 degrees celsius). which of the following, if true, best explains the apparent paradox between the cold environment and the evidence of the bones experiencing hot temperatures? (a) chemical changes that naturally occur during the process of decay in only one north canadian species produce the same evidence of the species' skeletons being exposed to hot temperatures as the expedition scientists found. (b) a little over 103,000 years ago, a large fire is known to have occurred in northern canada. (c) strong evidence exists that as early as 70,000 years ago, homo sapiens around the world relied heavily on fire to cook animals. (d) in the same expedition and in roughly the same layer of excavation, scientists found rudimentary wood cutting and hunting tools used by early humans.
