Discussion Question 1 Discuss the recommendations for skin examination. What populations are at increased risk of developing skin cancer? What recommendations can we give to our patients (from the pediatric to geriatric patient) regarding sun exposure? Discussion Question 2 A 72-year-old female presents with complaints of a rash near the gluteal fold on the right side. It is a painful vesicular rash, onset approximately 2 days ago, with no fever but occasional burning and sensitivity at the site. She has tried triple antibiotic ointment without relief. She has been widowed for 10 years and has a “steady boyfriend” whom she has dated for 6 months and recently became sexually active with. What other questions would you like to ask your patient? What are your differential diagnoses and final diagnosis? How would you discuss this diagnosis with your older patient? Discussion Question 3 Describe the difference in lesion characteristics between benign and malignant lesions. Discuss three common benign lesions and three precancerous or cancerous lesions.

Discussion Question 1 Facial pain or numbness is occasionally a chief complaint in primary care. Choose one differential diagnosis for facial pain or numbness in a select population and discuss signs, symptoms, physical findings, and diagnostic testing. You may choose a pediatric, adult, obstetric, or geriatric patient. Support your answer with evidence-based literature (references). Discussion Question 2 The diagnosis of altered mental status is general rather than exact. There are several specific sources for altered mental status. Choose three different diagnoses and discuss symptoms, risk factors, any cultural influences, assessment, and diagnostic tools that you would use to reach this diagnosis. Discussion Question 3 Healthcare is an ever-evolving science. Research findings create changes that are communicated quickly through the Internet, paper publications, and eventually books. The MMSE has long been used to evaluate severity of Alzheimer’s disease. Research the Internet and find one other test that would be useful in screening or diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease. It must be a scientific test, not lay testing. Discuss why you would use this test in your practice as an advanced practice registered nurse or why not.

APA FORMAT 2 PAGES WITH 3 REFERENCES 1 FROM WALDENU LIBRARY Discussion: Nursing Research and Evidence-Based Practice In your practice as a nurse, you may use procedures and methods that did not necessarily originate in evidence, but instead were derived from informal and unwritten conventions, traditions, and observations. While these techniques may have merit, practices are constantly being updated and contradicted by information from scholarly research studies and professional guidelines. This new information serves as “evidence” for revising practices to improve outcomes across health care. Based on this evidence, you can formulate a question. In this Discussion, you consider the use of evidence-based practice in your own organization and formulate a question that you will need to answer for your portfolio project. This is called a PICOT question. You will also investigate strategies for overcoming barriers to implementing evidence-based practice (EBP). To prepare: Consider a recent clinical experience in which you were providing care for a patient. Determine the extent to which the care that you provided was based on evidence and research findings or supported only by your organization’s standard procedures. How do you know if the tasks were based on research? What questions have you thought about in a particular area of care such as a procedure or policy? Review Chapter 2, pages 31–34 on “Asking Well worded Clinical Questions” in Polit & Beck and consult the resource from the Walden Student Center for Success: Clinical Question Anatomy & examples of PICOT questions (found in this week’s Learning Resources). Formulate your background questions and PICOT question. Reflect on the barriers that might inhibit the implementation of evidence-based practice in your clinical environment. Review the article “Adopting Evidence-Based Practice in Clinical Decision Making” in this week’s Learning Resources. Select one of the barriers described that is evident in your organization and formulate a plan for overcoming this barrier.
