Phosphorus in the Human Organism<br />

Phosphorus is structurally present in bone as hydroxyapatite, <strong>and</strong> in cell<br />

membranes as phospholipids. Here, phosphor plays an eminent role at the<br />

level of consolidating processes. The human form is related to the form of<br />

the skeleton <strong>and</strong> the form of every single cell is related to the form of its cell<br />

membrane.<br />

Functionally, phosphor is essential in all metabolic energy production<br />

<strong>and</strong> storage. It activates a great number of enzymes, hormones, <strong>and</strong> cell<br />

signaling molecules <strong>and</strong> affects oxygen delivery to the tissues through<br />

2,3-diphosphoglycerate, which binds to hemoglobin. (Linus Pauling Institute<br />

2008).<br />

with exudate<br />

Treatment Goals<br />

a. Concentrating ability will improve with the temperature coming down.<br />

b. <strong>Therapy</strong> goal is to restore breathing to a normal rhythm. The normal breathing rhythm<br />

restores the balance between the consolidating forces <strong>and</strong> the dissolving tendency in<br />

the lung, between aeration <strong>and</strong> circulation.<br />

c. The decreased muscle tension helps to conserve energy necessary for movement in<br />

favor of managing the digestive process that has shifted to the lung. Regaining normal<br />

muscle tension <strong>and</strong> strength is an objective that must be achieved in the recovery time.<br />

The objective is for the patient to be able to relax during the acute phase of the disease.<br />
