What does it mean when you ask a person a question and their eyes go rapidly side to side?
Answers:
Ah, a great question!It was mentioned that in psychology a person is lying if they look up to the left. SOMETIMES it is true.A person's eyes actually try to "look" at the brain where the answer is coming from. A person who remembers things visually (photographic memory) will look at all parts of their brain to find the answer. And when the info is found, their eyes will sweep back and forth while reading.
This behavior can be seen when watching movies. Some actors will quickly look side to side when talking (in some scenes) because they are "reading their lines". Directors try to get the actors to stop doing that, because it is "annoying to the audience".Some people look down and to the right. These people are auditory learners. They are looking at the memory, and then their eyes glance left quickly as they are intrepreting the memory.A person who remembers by doing will look down. This downward glance means that they can remember by "looking at their hands doing the work". Then they will look up to interpret.
it mean that the perso whi u r talking to dont want to hear what u have to say are just dont want to talk.
Maybe their stupid, or they don't know the answer.
It's actually a sign that they're not telling the truth. Looking side to side or up and to the left is usually a invulintary reaction caused when "making up an answer" I hope I helped some.
there is something called nystagmus ( a rapid eye movement) due to a disease in their inner ears due to a severe infection or radiation due to tumour in the face or neck where the rays affect the inner ear
Looking up and to the left or up and to the right is called a contralateral eye movement or CLEM. As was mentioned above, it can be indicitive of cortical laterality -- in other words, which side of the brain that the person is using when considering the answer to the question.Nystagmus is an eye movement that typically has two phases: a fast phase and a slow phase. If you want to see nystagmus, do the following. Take a friend, sit them down on a desk chair, and spin the chair in circles for ten or twenty rotations and then stop . Ask your friend to try to stair at something on the wall. They will have difficulty with this task. Their eyes will move quickly in the direction of the chair's rotation and then slowly back in the opposite direction to the chair's rotation.There are a lot of different reasons why a person would develop nystagmus including inner ear problems. The sobriety test where the cop asks the driver to follow his finger is a test for nystagmus. This test is trying to ellicit gaze-evoked nystgmus. As the cop moves his finger to the far right and the far left of the driver's visual field, if the driver has been drinking, his eyes will exhibit nystgmus.A lot of patients with disabilities have constant nystagmus making it difficult or impossible to fixate on anything.

What does it mean when they make a "copy" at a pharmacy?
I always hear the clerks yell out, "I have a copy on line 2!" What is it that they are "copying?"
Answers:
actually, it means another pharmacy is calling to transfer the refills of a prescription to their pharmacy. Some people call it a "transfer" others call it a "copy"
It means the chemist is playing with the photocopier again.
I think it means a doctors office.

what does it mean when the eyes r directed anteriorly?
read it on a website.
Answers:
Outwardly as opposed to being cross-eyed
they are supposed to move in the same directions.
Anterior means front as opposed to posterior. An alternative word for anterior in this case is medial (nearer to the midline), as opposed to lateral. What it means is both eyes move in the direction towards the middle, basically, crossed eyes.
Eyes are facing forward, the way they should be, not rolling backward.

What does it mean when someone is septic?
Answers:
A systemic infection, or the bacteria or virus is circulating throughout his body carried by blood. It means he is in critical condition right now and pray that his immune system can overcome the infection.By the way, contrary to what Emerson and sweettask said, sepsis is so much different from septic shock! Sepsis is the condition of having bacteremia or viremia, and shock is the late-stage respond of the body to the sepsis. In sepsis, your heart rate is fast, blood pressure and breathing maybe normal. But in septic shock, your heart may even stop beating, breathing is labored and blood pressure goes down, in short, spetic shock is a near-dying condition, while sepsis is just being sick. Get it?
it means that whatever their original infection was ..is now in the blood stream
its systemic
They have an infection that puts their body into shock.
Their body is toxic. Do you know what a septic tank or septic system is? Waste products (poop and pee/dirty).
Wow, 'septic' like septic tank? the stuff that flushes out of your toilet..septic? They must be full of sh*it.
If you mean 'skeptic'? Non- believer! Not easily convinced.
It means a local infection just spread through the whole body.
Septic typically refers to Septic Shock which is a toxic infection which causes the body to go into shock. For instance, if you were swimming in dirty water and obtained a laceration to your leg, the bacteria from the water could then enter your bloodstream sending you into septic shock.This could lead to bradycardia and cause the liver to fail.
skeptic-one who doubts,questions,or disagree
with what someone says/does..
Septic shock is caused by cytokines (substances made by the immune system to fight an infection (see Biology of the Immune System: Cytokines) and by the toxins produced by some bacteria. These substances cause the blood vessels to widen (dilate), which results in a drop in blood pressure. Consequently, blood flow to vital organs鈥攑articularly the kidneys and brain鈥攊s reduced. This reduction in blood flow occurs despite the body's attempts to compensate by increasing both the heart rate and the volume of blood pumped. Eventually, the toxins and the increased work of pumping weaken the heart, resulting in a decreased output of blood and even poorer blood flow to vital organs. The walls of the blood vessels may leak, allowing fluid to escape from the bloodstream into tissues and causing swelling. Leakage and swelling can develop in the lungs, causing difficulty breathing (respiratory distress). early symptoms may include a shaking chill; a rapid rise in temperature; warm, flushed skin; a rapid, pounding pulse; excessively rapid breathing; and blood pressure that rises and falls. Urinary output decreases. Tissues with poor blood flow release excess lactic acid into the bloodstream, causing the blood to become more acidic, which results in malfunction of many different organs. In later stages, the body temperature often falls below normal.As septic shock worsens, several organs may fail. For example, the kidneys may fail, resulting in very low or no urine output and the accumulation of metabolic waste products (such as urea nitrogen) in the blood. The lungs may fail, resulting in breathing difficulties and a reduction in the level of oxygen in the blood. The heart may fail, resulting in fluid retention and swelling of tissues. Additionally, blood clots may form inside blood vessels.As soon as symptoms of septic shock are apparent, the person must be admitted to an intensive care unit for treatment. Large amounts of fluid are given intravenously to increase the blood pressure. Drugs are given to increase blood flow to the brain, heart, and other organs. Extra oxygen is given. If the lungs fail, the person may need a mechanical ventilator to help breathing.High doses of intravenous antibiotics are given as soon as blood samples have been taken for laboratory cultures. Until the laboratory identifies the infecting bacteria, two or more antibiotics are usually given together to increase the chances of killing the bacteria.
someone is septic if the infection in his body has already spread or it is very severe already due to immune response.
In plain English it means they have blood poisoning. To be more descriptive, it means that an infection has entered the blood stream.
Sepsis- A morbid condition resulting from the presence of pathogenic bacteria and their products.-septic, adj.
Sepsis is infection with pus forming bacteria.
What does it mean when a US patent application ipublished and publicly available to others?
What additional steps are necessary to have the patent approved by the US patent office?
Answers:
If the patent is published it means that it is under review by a patent examiner, but you don't have your patent yet. Since it published the rest of the world can read what you are going to patent. This happens to all patents. The examiner is now comparing your claims to the prior art (other patents) and will rule judgment on what claims are allowed to you. If you are lucky you get all the claims right away and the patent is granted. Typically you, your patent lawyer, and the examiner will go through rounds of examinations where your claims are reduced in number and scope until it is unique and not covered by prior art. Could take years to finish depending on what is claimed.
the best road to take is to get a patent lawyer
or u could sell ur soul and have every thing u want
When it is published, you can say Patent Pending. You have to negotiate with the patent examiners to get final approval, especially as to the claims.

What does it mean when a doctor writes in their notes that someone is a "difficult historian"?
My 2yr old daughter has failure to thrive, fed through a tube, wont eat and she sees several specialists. I feel they are pointing the finger at me, with no real answers.
Answers:
When trying to figure out what is going on in a medical case, the doctor may sometimes have trouble documenting the whole story. So, he or she will instead have to document that they are having trouble getting the whole story. So, they will sometimes write that the patient is a "poor historian" meaning they don't keep track of what is going on with their health, or a "difficult historian" meaning that getting the full story is difficult. You will help your daughter if you patiently give the whole story, even when you are asked again and again. Good luck.
It means the patients can't get their story straight, tells it different ways several times, can't remember things, isn't certain of what happened, can't answer questions right, etc.
