equal changes in the input give rise to equal changes in the output. Arithmetic sequences have this same special property: equal changes in the input (e.g., moving from term to term). give rise to equal changes in the output (determined by the common difference). Thus, arithmetic sequences always graph as points along a line. The graph of the sequence [beautiful math coming... please be patient] $\,4\,$, $\,7\,$, $\,10\,$, $\,13\,$, $\,\ldots\,$ is the set of points (âdotsâ) shown below.
distal port (16-gauge lumen): The largest lumen; used for central venous pressure monitoring or high volume or viscous fluids, colloids, medications. medial port (18-gauge lumen): Used for parenteral nutrition, medications. proximal (18-gauge lumen): Used for blood sampling, medications, blood component administration.
A useful mnemonic for remembering the relationships in the spinal cord is: SAME-DAVE (sensory-afferent, motor-efferent; dorsal-afferent, ventral-efferent). In the thoracic region, the upper lumbar region and in segments of the sacral region of the spinal cord, there is also a lateral horn of gray matter. In the thoracic and lumbar regions of the spinal cord, the lateral horn contains autonomic cell bodies for sympathetic nervous system innervation to smooth muscles, cardiac muscles and glands. In the sacral region of the spinal cord, the lateral horn contains autonomic cell bodies for parasympathetic innervation to pelvic organs. The role of the lateral horn and autonomic innervation will be discussed in another module, however, it is helpful to recognize that the lateral horns exist at this point.
