The first number in a dental or medical instrument formula indicates the width of the blade or working tip in tenths of a millimeter (0.1 mm). For example, a formula starting with "10" means the blade is 1.0 mm wide. The second number typically indicates the length of the blade in millimeters, and the third number indicates the angle of the blade in degrees.

Osteoconduction refers to the ability of a material to provide a scaffold for new bone growth to occur on its surface.

An autogenous graft (bone harvested from the patient's own body) possesses osteoconductive properties because it provides a natural scaffold for new bone formation. It also has osteoinductive and osteogenic properties.

Hydroxyapatite is a ceramic material used as a bone substitute and is known for its osteoconductive properties.

Plastic materials are generally not osteoconductive and are used for other purposes in medicine, such as implants where bone integration is not desired.

Cartilage is a different type of connective tissue and does not inherently possess osteoconductive properties for bone regeneration.

Severe acidosis, particularly metabolic acidosis, can occur following prolonged cardiac arrest and subsequent CPR. The primary goal in managing such cases is to restore normal pH levels in the body, which is crucial for proper cellular function and overall physiological homeostasis.

1. Sodium bicarbonate Sodium bicarbonate is a strong base that reacts with hydrogen ions (H+), which are responsible for acidity in the blood, to form carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). This reaction helps to neutralize the excess hydrogen ions, thereby raising the pH of the blood. It is administered intravenously because it allows for rapid distribution throughout the body and direct access to the circulatory system where it can counteract acidosis most effectively. The intravenous route ensures that the medication reaches the bloodstream quickly and in a controlled manner, making it the preferred method for acute and severe cases.

2. Adrenaline (epinephrine)*: Although adrenaline is a crucial medication used in CPR for its vasopressor and cardiac stimulant effects, it is not the primary treatment for severe acidosis. Adrenaline is typically administered to improve cardiac output and blood pressure during CPR.
