Fluid and electrolyte disorders are a group of conditions caused by a temporary disturbance in the body`s levels of fluids and electrolytes, which are electrically charged minerals in body fluids. Having the right amount of electrolytes, including calcium, chloride, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and certain acids, is essential for maintain the health of nerves and muscles, including those in the brain, heart, lungs, and other vital organs. Your child can develop a fluid and electrolyte imbalance if he or she becomes dehydrated, which occurs when the body loses too much fluid and cannot replace it quickly. Fever, medications such as diuretics, and excessive sweating are common causes of dehydration.
wever, Pope Pius XII argues that euthanasia may be performed if a patient’s health is not improving at the slightest (Diaconescu 476). “Euthanasia was defended by famous personalities such as: Voltaire, Th. More, Fr. Bacon, D. Hurne, B. Shaw, B. Russel, Nobel, and nowadays by a great number of Nobel laureates” (Diaconescu 477). Columbia was the first American country to allow the practice of mercy killing in 1997 (Diaconescu 476). A well-known physician who used the method of mercy killing was Dr. Jack Kevorkian, who owned a suicide machine to perform his victim’s passings (Marzili 11). Dr. Kevokian’s suicide machine performed by injecting or inhaling chemicals into the body of the patient to stop the heart; Janet Adkins, Marjorie Wantz, and Sherry Miller were victims of Kevordian’s machine (Marzili 11). Dr. Kevordian was sentenced to prison after a total of one hundred thirty counts of murder with his suicide machine on March 6th of 1999 (Diaconescu 476). A more recent study made by James Eglinton, from the University of Edinburgh, wrote “Herald” from a Newspaper that mentioned David Goodall, an Australian man, who was one hundred four before he chose to take a lethal injection to end his life; he was not terminally ill but thought it was his time to leave the world (Gale Global Issues). Today, many laws prohibit the act of orthanasia and physicians who are accused of performing the practice can be brought into questioning (Diaconescu 476).
The right to not suffer unnecessarily is one of the most frequent claim brought up to defend the pro of assisted suicide. Patients frequently refuse medical treatments because of religious beliefs; regardless of whether chosen to not be cared for or be stripped away from medical machines and life support, allowing the disease to kill victims naturally is legal in most countries (Diaconescu 478,481). A vast amount of the population believe that helping take another’s life is disguised homicide and should be treated like murder. However, physicians who perform mercy killing initiates the task out of forgiveness and kindness, without asking or currency or materials in return (Diaconescu 478). “Supporters of euthanasia believe that severely ill or dying patients should have the right to respect that their life be ended. A frequently given example is of people suffering from a terminal illness for which there is no known cure. In the early stages of such an illness, people may have a relatively high quality of life. As the illness progresses, however, they may fear the suffering, dependency on others, and loses of control that their situation might bring” (Wise 33).” Though the advancements today have reached a height where most diseases can be easily resolved by taking a manmade medicine, some diseases have yet to be found, have no known cure, and may result in unwanted events. “In the resolution 779/1975 it is demonstrated that the purpose of medical practice is not exclusively intended to extend life, but also to recognize the patients right(s) to not suffer unnecessarily” (Diaconescu 476). The necessity to place the patient’s opinion and choice above the crucial state they are in, is never considered during these debates and should influence how others view this topic.
Reputation and money have become major influences on the world today. Hospitals are naturally expensive because of the costly gear used, plenty of employees, and substances used to recover the patient. Hospital care costs in 2018 was $1,193 billion, while the output gross for hospitals is $943 billion. An esti
