Check for out eating your BP RX 24-hour urine for Na/K/creatinine if the 24-hour sodium excretion is > 1500 mg a day then tell patient they are not adhering to the DASH diet.

A composite diet, employed in the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) trials, has been found to be very effective in reducing blood pressure in persons with clinical hypertension as well as in people with blood pressure levels below that threshold. This diet combines fruits and vegetables with food products that are low in saturated fats. The blood pressure lowering effect is even greater when the DASH diet is modified to reduce the sodium content. Though the effects on CHD prevention have not been directly studied, the blood pressure and lipid-lowering effects of the low...

Fish avoid more vigorously the odor of predators that have fed on members of their species than that of those on different diets. For example, young Arctic chart avoid water from brown trout fed on Arctic chart and are less wary of that from pellet-fed trout (Hirvonen et ah, 2000). Prey fish also reduce their predator inspection behavior vis-a-vis predators that have eaten members of their own species. For instance, finescale dace, Phoxinus neogaeus, dash toward predators such as yellow perch, Percaflavescens, and withdraw. Dace inspect perch models less often if the model is accompanied by water from perch that had eaten dace than if accompanied hy water from perch on a swordtail, Xiphophorus hdleri, diet. Dace produce alarm pheromone, while swordtails do not. The Central American swordtails do not cooccur with finescale dace (Brown etal, 2001).

Earthworm meal has also been shown to be a useful protein source for Japanese quail. Das and Dash (1989) fed 1-week-old male and female Japanese quails on a maize-based diet containing 60g/kg fishmeal or 60g/kg earthworm meal. After 56 days, total weight gain was 96.1 and 98.5 g, feed intake was 533 and 511 g and feed conversion ratio 5.54 and 5.19g/g for the control and earthworm diets, respectively. Egg quality was not influenced by the diets. 

Volume contol Give HCTZ 25 po q 12 hours. If edema or Cr >2, use furosemide 40 q 12 hours. Leave orders that stress that you want the BP to be measured every hour and you want to increase meds as given in the table, every four to six hours. Always implement the DASH 1500-mg sodium diet as well (6). 

Fig. 6. Schematic of mechanisms for accumulation of vibrational energy on a vibrator. DIMET refers to multiple one-step excitations, thus dominating when the excitation (dashed arrows) rates are comparable to decay rates. DIET refers to one step gain of several quanta. This mechanism is mediated by anharmonicities of the vibrational potential. In general, a transition of several quanta at once has lower probability, but since the total number of steps is so decreased, it dominates over a DIMET mechanism for sufficient low excitation rates.
