AP1) writer a 2-3 paragraph discussion

QUESTION

At its core, pathology is the study of disease. Diseases occur for many reasons. But some, such as cystic fibrosis and Parkinson’s Disease, occur because of alterations that prevent cells from functioning normally.

Understanding of signals and symptoms of alterations in cellular processes is a critical step in diagnosis and treatment of many diseases. For the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), this understanding can also help educate patients and guide them through their treatment plans.

For this Discussion, you examine a case study and explain the disease that is suggested. You examine the symptoms reported and explain the cells that are involved and potential alterations and impacts.

To prepare: READ THIS CASE STUDY

Scenario: Patient is an 18-year-old female with a diagnosis of cystic fibrosis who presents with complaints of increased productive cough and fatigue in the last few days. The patient denies a fever but reports that her appetite hasn’t been good because she is so tired. Patient vital signs: BP 110/70, P 110, Res 28 labored, temp 98.4. Physical exam: Lung sounds Diminished breath sounds bilateral lower lobes with crackles in upper lobes.

Post an explanation of the disease highlighted in the scenario you were provided. Include the following in your explanation:

  • The role genetics plays in the disease.
  • Why the patient is presenting with the specific symptoms described.
  • The physiologic response to the stimulus presented in the scenario and why you think this response occurred.
  • The cells that are involved in this process.
  • How another characteristic (e.g., gender, genetics) would change your response.

Team Payroll Disparity in Professional Sports—NFL, NBA, NHL

QUESTION

One interesting topic in sport finance is the disparity that exists between team payrolls in professional sports. Some teams consistently carry payrolls above the cap and as a result pay a “luxury tax” imposed by the league. Other teams on the opposite end have minimal payrolls, with an entire team’s compensation amounting to the cost of three or four stars on a cap-exceeding team. For this assignment you are to compare the 1) payrolls, 2) rosters, and 3) individual salaries of a cap-exceeding team and a team in the bottom 10 of compensation in a professional sport. Compare not only the 1) teams’ winning percentages and 2) league finishes but also 3) the previous year’s statistics for the starting players. Salaries can be found by doing a Google search. Use the format below to create a spreadsheet when submitting the assignment. 

I: In comparing salaries and statistics, develop tables or spreadsheets with the following information.

Cap Exceeding Team Bottom Compensation Team

Payroll

Roster

Individual Salaries

Last years:

Winning percentage

League finish

Starting players final stats (all positions)

II: Perform a cost–benefit analysis for each of the players to determine who outperformed their salaries, and who was not worth the money. Then draw conclusions about high versus low payrolls. Much of this will be subjective in nature, but it is an opportunity to gather data, process and compare the data, and then draw conclusions.

III: Use your cost-benefit analysis to establish a monetary compensation for each of the players on the two teams for the following season, based on their believed overall impact on team performance.

discussion response and powerpoint

QUESTION

1st part: respond to the following discussion post using a scholarly reference. Make sure its at least 350 words. 

Discussion: Donepezil is used to treat dementia related to Alzheimer’s disease, it is used to improve memory, awareness, and the ability to function. The safe dose of Donepezil is for oral dose for mild to moderate Alzheimer’s is 5 mg at bedtime for adults and for moderate to severe Alzheimer’s is 10mg taken at bedtime (Donepezil (Oral Route) Side Effects – Mayo Clinic, n.d.). The side effects of the Donepezil are diarrhea, loss of appetite, trouble sleeping, nausea, constipation, headache, abnormal dreams and the rare side effects are black tarry stools, blurred vision, bloody or cloudy urine, chills, hot flashes. The nursing interventions I would do as a nurse to prevent the side effects are I would assess the patient’s cognitive function which is their memory, attention, reasoning, language, and their ability to perform simple everyday tasks throughout the course of the therapy. I would also monitor the patients heart rate throughout therapy since Donezepil may cause bradycardia. I would also administer food with the medication to prevent GI upset in the patient. 

2nd part: follow the following instructions: make a simple powerpoint answering the following questions for this prompt: Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) in the veteran project. MUST REACH THE FOLLOWING POINTS FOR EACH SLIDE: mortality and morbidity information of Veterans who have the illness. write a transcript on a separate sheet of paper like if you were presenting those slides.

Find a peer reviewed research article that investigates one of the topics

QUESTION

Find a peer reviewed research article that investigates in some way one of the following topics: Joy, gratitude, happiness, compassion, service, forgiveness, mindfulness, meditation, or generosity. 

Make sure it is a research study; the facets of a research study are described below.

Use the headings

Research question/hypothesis, Methods, Variables, Findings, Discussion, “So What” 

On the blackboard discussion area upload an overview of the research study, making sure to include all of the information requested.

You cannot use a research article that someone else has uploaded so make sure you check before you choose an article. The first person to put a specific research article up, will be the only person to use that article. It must be research so it will have a research question or hypothesis, there will be a methods section, a population of interest, a results section and a discussion section. Include in your overview the issue/topic the research is investigating, the research question or hypothesis, the population being studied, what variables were studied, what they found in the results and how this information is useful to society as a whole and you in particular. The last item you will add is your opinion of the value of the research and what it adds to the discussions of the science of well being. Reading your opinion is my favorite part, so make sure you communicate through words your thoughts so that I may understand your perceptions. Do this write up and thoroughly as possible for the best grade. 

THE ROLE OF THE NURSE INFORMATICIST IN SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION (1)

THE IMPACT OF NURSING INFORMATICS ON PATIENT OUTCOMES AND PATIENT CARE EFFICIENCIES

QUESTION

In the Discussion for this module, you considered the interaction of nurse informaticists with other specialists to ensure successful care. How is that success determined?

Patient outcomes and the fulfillment of care goals is one of the major ways that healthcare success is measured. Measuring patient outcomes results in the generation of data that can be used to improve results. Nursing informatics can have a significant part in this process and can help to improve outcomes by improving processes, identifying at-risk patients, and enhancing efficiency.

To Prepare:

Review the concepts of technology application as presented in the Resources.

Reflect on how emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence may help fortify nursing informatics as a specialty by leading to increased impact on patient outcomes or patient care efficiencies.

The Assignment: 

  • In a project proposal written to the leadership of your healthcare organization, propose a nursing informatics project for your organization that you advocate to improve patient outcomes or patient-care efficiency. Your project proposal should include the following:
  • Describe the project you propose.

Identify the stakeholders impacted by this project.

Explain the patient outcome(s) or patient-care efficiencies this project is aimed at improving and explain how this improvement would occur. Be specific and provide examples.

Identify the technologies required to implement this project and explain why.

Identify the project team (by roles) and explain how you would incorporate the nurse informaticist in the project team.

  • Use APA format and include a title page and reference page.
  • Use the Safe Assign Drafts to check your match percentage before submitting your work.
