Pathophysiology DQ 13 student reply Veronica Reverol

The following is another student post to wish i have to react. Please add some other information. relate to the question but different from the student post. remember APA and similarity.The diabetic educator for a local hospital has been asked to teach a group of adult patients newly diagnosed with type 1 and type 2 diabetes on “how to effectively manage diabetes.”a.            What would be a useful approach to this request?b.            How would you explain to this group of patients the potential complications of diabetes and the impact of those on their lives?Chapter 45a.         Even though the causes for the diabetes are different in this group. Patients will benefit of certain recommendations in common. The best approach is to prepare a presentation that cover interventions that benefits all diabetics and then address the recommendations that are specific to type 2 and type 1 diabetics. This includes checking blood glucose, use of glucometer, normal glucose range, sliding scale, possible complications, including HHS, DKA and hypoglycemia, neuropathies, etc. All of these are common grounds to both types of diabetics with the exception of HHS that happens more commonly in type 2. Also important information about diet and hidden carbohydrates. (Ignatavicius, Workman, Blair, Rebar, & Winkelman, 2016)b.         Diabetes has complications that can be either acute or chronic. The group needs to understand that the acute complications like HHS, DKA and Hypoglycemia are considered medical emergencies and if not treated as such can easily become deadly. The long term complications come related to macrovascular and microvascular changes from the disease. Macrovascular includes damage to heart and blood vessels, increasing risk of cardiovascular disease and heart failure. Microvascular changes affects organ tissues, this is manifested in neuropathies, nephropathies and retinopathies. All of this complications can be reduced with thigh control of glucose levels. Therefore is important that patient understand how to manage the disease early on to avoid the development of these complications. (Ignatavicius, Workman, Blair, Rebar, & Winkelman, 2016)

Assignment: Academic Success and Professional Development Plan Part 4: Research AnalysisArchitect Daniel Libeskind is credited with saying “To provide meaningful architecture is not to parody history, but to articulate it.” The suggestion is that his work does not copy the efforts of others but relies on it.Understanding the work of others is critically important to new work. Contributions to the nursing body of knowledge can happen when you are able to analyze and articulate the efforts of previous research. Hence research analysis skills are critical tools for your toolbox.In this Assignment, you will locate relevant existing research. You also will analyze this research using a tool helpful for analysis.To Prepare:Reflect on the strategies presented in the Resources this week in support of locating and analyzing research.Use the Walden Library to identify and read one peer-reviewed research article focused on a topic of interest to you in your specialty field.Review the article you selected and reflect on the professional practice use of theories/concepts as described by the articleThe Assignment:Using the ‘Week 4 | Part 4’ section of your Academic Success and Professional Development Plan Template presented in the Resources, conduct an analysis of the elements of the research article you identified. Be sure to include the following:Clearly identify the topic of interest you have selected.Provide an accurate and complete APA formatted citation of the article you selected, along with link or search details.Clearly identify and describe in detail a professional practice use of the theories/concepts presented in the article.Provide a clear and accurate analysis of the article using the Research Analysis Matrix section of the template.Write a 1-paragraph justification that clearly and accurately explains in detail whether you would recommend the use of this article to inform professional practice.

Concepts of Neurological and Musculoskeletal Disorders

Case study74-year-old male with a history of hypertension and smoking, is having dinner with his wife when he develops sudden onset of difficulty speaking, with drooling from the left side of his mouth, and weakness in his left hand. His wife asks him if he is all right and the patient denies any difficulty. His symptoms progress over the next 10 minutes until he cannot lift his arm and has trouble standing. The patient continues to deny any problems. The wife sits the man in a chair and calls 911. The EMS squad arrives within 5 minutes. Upon arrival in the ED, patient‘s blood pressure was 178/94, pulse 78 and regular, PaO2 97% on room air. Neuro exam – Cranial nerves- Mild left facial droop. Motor- Right arm and leg extremity with 5/5 strength. Left arm cannot resist gravity, left leg with mild drift. Sensation intact. Neglect- Mild neglect to left side of body. Language- Expressive and receptive language intact.AssignmentIn your Case Study Analysis related to the scenario provided, explain the following:Both the neurological and musculoskeletal pathophysiologic processes that would account for the patient presenting these symptoms.Any racial/ethnic variables that may impact physiological functioning.How these processes interact to affect the patient.

Fill in the concept map linked below with the information you have on your most recent patient. Then look at opportunities, real or imagined, for collaborative and/or interdisciplinary care. What could you do to make everything and everyone work together for the good of the patient?Evaluation may be real or imagined as well. Think “outside” the realm of the clinical picture you’re presented. If you believe the suggested improvements to care will benefit the patient, say so!

Assignment: Regulation for Nursing Practice Staff Development Meeting

Nursing is a very highly regulated profession. There are over 100 boards of nursing and national nursing associations throughout the United States and its territories. Their existence helps regulate, inform, and promote the nursing profession. With such numbers, it can be difficult to distinguish between BONs and nursing associations, and overwhelming to consider various benefits and options offered by each.Both boards of nursing and national nursing associations have significant impacts on the nurse practitioner profession and scope of practice. Understanding these differences helps lend credence to your expertise as a professional. In this Assignment, you will practice the application of such expertise by communicating a comparison of boards of nursing and professional nurse associations. You will also share an analysis of your state board of nursing.To Prepare:Assume that you are leading a staff development meeting on regulation for nursing practice at your healthcare organization or agency.Review the NCSBN and ANA websites to prepare for your presentation.The Assignment: (8- to 9-slide PowerPoint presentation)Develop a 8- to 9-slide PowerPoint Presentation that addresses the following:Describe the differences between a board of nursing and a professional nurse association.Describe the board for your specific region/area.Who is on the board?How does one become a member of the board?Describe at least one state regulation related to general nurse scope of practice.How does this regulation influence the nurse’s role?How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?Describe at least one state regulation related to Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs).How does this regulation influence the nurse’s role?How does this regulation influence delivery, cost, and access to healthcare?Include Speaker Notes on Each Slide (except on the title page and reference page)
