1) Considering the patient’s history of accidental ingestion of corrosive chemicals discuss TWO structures or organs that may have likely be compromised.
2) Given the patient’s dysphagia and his presenting symptoms of
breathlessness, provide recommendations for the administration
of pain relief drugs.

Consideration/Guidelines for report:

Part 1:

In your discussion, you need to include:

  symptoms presented by the patient. (4 marks)

Part 2:
In your discussion, you need to include:

• Specify the most suitable routes of drug delivery. (4 marks)
•  Explain the rationale behind your choices.

1.  Relate how the anatomy and physiology of organs within the organ
