Disorders of Hemostasis

Leona is 52 years old and smokes. She is also overweight and has atherosclerosis. When she was given a 2-week vacation from work, she packed up her bags and flew from Minnesota to Sydney, Australia, for the trip she always wanted to take. Unfortunately, just 3 days after she arrived, she was hospitalized when her left calf became inflamed, causing her considerable pain. The physician attending to her told her she developed a deep vein thrombosis.

1. Explain, using your knowledge of hypercoagulability, why the trip to Australia contributed to Leona’s DVT? Why was Leona already at risk for thrombus development?
2. How does Leona’s atherosclerosis affect platelet function? Conversely, what is the effect of increased platelet activity on the development of atherosclerosis?
3. How do atherosclerosis and immobility promote changes in blood coagulation?
4. When Leona was in hospital, she received heparin therapy. Explain why this course of action was taken to treat her DVT. Why was she not given heparin tablets to take back to the hotel with her?

Two professional registered nurses are interested in evidence-based practice and have developed research questions to study.  The nurses discuss what evidence-based practice is all about and are trying to determine if the organizational culture supports nurses who seek out and use research to change long-standing practices that are rooted in tradition rather than science.

1. What is the best explanation of the difference between evidence-based practice and best practices?

2. The two registered nurses review a variety of research studies to answer their proposed research questions. What is the difference in the efficacy of randomized controlled trials, integrative reviews, or meta-analysis with practice-based evidence for continuous process improvement?

3. The registered professional nurses must consider alternative support mechanisms when searching for the best evidence to support their clinical practice. What are possible mechanisms of support for evidence-based practice?

4.  Describe the challenges that exist today for nurses in implementing evidence-based practice?

2.)  What would you do differently? 

3.)  How does therapeutic communication affect patient care?

The focus is on Cardiovascular and Respiratory Disorders. In this module, you will examine fundamental concepts of cellular processes and the alterations that lead to various cardiovascular and respiratory diseases and disorders. You will evaluate the genetic environment and its impact on these diseases. You will also evaluate the impact of patient characteristics, including racial and ethnic variables, on physiological functioning. Here is the case study for this module:

A 65-year-old patient is 8 days post op after a total knee replacement. Patient suddenly complains of shortness of breath, pleuritic chest pain, and palpitations. On arrival to the emergency department, an EKG revealed new onset atrial fibrillation and right ventricular strain pattern – T wave inversions in the right precordial leads (V1-4) ± the inferior leads (II, III, aVF).

This week, you examine fundamental concepts of cardiovascular and respiratory disorders. You explore common diseases and disorders that impact these systems, and you apply the key terms and concepts that help communicate the pathophysiological nature of these issues to patients.

 Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum,

• Read Chapters 21, 22, 24, 25, and 27 of Health Informatics: An Interprofessional Approach.
• Analyze the Health IT standards discussed in Chapter 22 of your text.

Using the information below, respond to the discussion question provided to you by your instructor. Based on your Ashford University major of study (Health and Human Services) analyze benefits and risks associated with informatics systems and exchange of data in these settings. Specifically, analyze your response based on the Health IT standards discussed in Chapter 22 of your text. Evalute two of the most substantive risks involved in using these informatics systems based on the privacy and security standards discussed in Chapter 26 of your text. Reflect on the following information:

Society has high expectations of the benefits associated with the effective adoption of informatics systems. Professionals in all areas of health care and health and human services facilitate the effectiveness of these informatics systems by adopting and utilizing standards for the management of patient information in both their clinical and administrative practice. These standards relate to how information is both classified and documented in informatics systems. Reflect on the expected benefits of health informatics applications and the use of informatics standards to support the realization of these benefits.

Initial Post: Your initial post should be a minimum of 350 words.

To help you to better understand why case mix is important to managed care and reimbursement methods; here are some fictional heart attack mortality rates for three different hospitals. Consider the national average for heart attack death rates to be 16%.

Hospital

National Mortality Rate    16%

Hospital A

Mortality Rate 16.1%

Hospital B

 Mortality Rate 18.6%

Hospital C

Mortality Rate 15.7%

Part I

Write a 3-4 page report in which you answer the following questions:

1. Explain case mix and why it is important in evaluating different health care providers.
2. Refer to the table of heart attack mortality rates for Hospitals A, B, and C. From your reading this week, what variables might be impacting the rates in the table? Please explain and discuss the use of data analysis for evaluating this kind of information.

Part II

You are a staff member at Hospital B, which has the worst mortality rate from heart attacks as seen in the table. Imagine that the administrator for Hospital B has asked you to appear at a Press Conference to share your knowledge about case mix.
