                                                     Roy’s Adaptation Model

 

There are nursing theorists who have formulated models that have guided nursing research for years. Many of these models present theories on how humans beings behave and adapt and how nursing is tied in to it all. For this discussion post, this writer explored Roy’s Adaptation Model which explains that humans are viewed as biopsychosocial adaptive systems who cope with who cope with environmental change through the process of adaptation (Polit & Beck, 2017). The systems that Roy refers to in human beings are the four subsystems of physiological/physical, self-concept or group identity, role function and interdependence These subsystems provide mechanisms on how humans deal with stimuli from our environment. This model is broken down to show how each change in our environment affects us and how the body deals with it. 

The Physiological subsystem

            This writer, researched how to apply Roy’s Adaptation Model to pregnant women who experience nausea vomiting. Many people were never able to explain how this process occurs and why does it happen to more than a few pregnant women in their first trimester of pregnancy. This article obtained from (Davis, 2014), utilized Roy’s theory to explain how the woman’s body deal with this change during pregnancy. The Physiological subsystem states that nausea and vomiting is related to the increased level of the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin hormone in the body when the woman is pregnant (Davis, 2014). The prolonged nausea and vomiting will subsequently affect the woman’s food intake as the inability to keep the food down deters women away from eating. This ultimately will lead the body into metabolic acidosis from the decreased intake in glucose, and the body now has to burn fat stores for energy (Davis, 2014). As a result of this pregnant women many times end up losing weight.

Self-Concept

Nausea and vomiting in pregnancy as it relate to self-concept reflects more on the mother having to spend time nursing themselves back to a healthy state and not spending enough time bonding with their unborn child (Davis, 2014). At this stage many women, may feel the need to end their pregnancy because it is causing them so much discomfort (Davis, 2014). If the woman tries to remedy the problem by taking medications the feeling of guilt may arise as they feel that they have done something to harm their baby. The mother, if she experienced nausea and vomiting throughout the pregnancy may experience some bonding issue with the baby as she was ill throughout most of the pregnancy.

Role Function

Role function as it pertains to nausea and vomiting during pregnancy is explained as the woman feeling that she has lost self-control due to the inability to live up to her roles (Davis, 2014). For example, the woman may not be able to take care of household and career duties which may ultimately affect the control she has over her life.

Interdependence

Roy’s interdependence subsystem explains that while experiencing nausea and vomiting the pregnant woman’s relationship with her mother and spouse are many times disrupted. The cause of this is related to their unwillingness to believe her inability to cope with the ill feelings of nausea and vomiting (Davis, 2014). At many times, her family may believe her symptoms are not as severe as she portrays and this will affect the way they engage with each other.

Basing research off an established model

Basing research off an established model directs the researcher into an area that provides much support for their topic of interest. It provides information that support or offer a base on which the researcher can make comparisons. In addition, it opens up fresh and new perspectives that can enlighten the researcher.  Many of these theorists have tested these theories and applied these models to areas in real life. There is tested evidence available for the researcher to use in support of their research.

In conclusion, Roy’s Adaptive theory provided a new approach on viewing and interpreting many disease states or illnesses. This writer supports this theory, because much of what we experience as humans are rarely just physiological. Most of our illnesses can be explained thoroughly on how it affects our bodies physically but in addition to that, illnesses also affect us psychologically, emotionally, and socially.

Assessment Instructions

Preparation

Suppose you have been asked to submit an article for publication in your organization’s newsletter, about a global health topic and how policies and practices at the local level can affect global health. Choose one global health topic from the list (or use another of your choice):

• Mental health.
• Communicable diseases (HIV/AIDS, influenza, malaria, tuberculosis).
• Non-communicable diseases (cancer, lung, and heart disease).
• Maternal and child health (prenatal care, midwife education, childhood vaccinations).
• LGBT health.
• Disabilities.
• Global water supply and safety (GlobalHealth.gov, n.d.).

Look in the Capella library and on the Internet for very recent peer-reviewed articles, statistics, and professional nursing information on the global health topic you selected.

Requirements

For this assessment, develop an APA-formatted research review article that covers one global health topic of your choice. In this assessment:

• Identify your topic. Provide background information and statistics on the topic, including the global areas most affected by the topic and the types of health care issues most often associated with the topic.
• Describe the factors that impact health and health care delivery in the global areas most affected by the topic you selected. These factors may include not only culture and tradition, but also politics, economics, and social attitude.
• Explain the influence of altruistic organizations (Peace Corps, Project Hope, religious and non-religious missions, and so on) on health and health care practices in the global area specifically associated with the topic.
• Describe the interventions implemented to address the health care issues associated with the topic. Include both conventional and unconventional interventions.
• Explain how the health care decisions and practices at the local level (the area most impacted by the topic) relate to health and health care delivery in other global areas. This is not limited only to best practices, but could include poor health care decisions and practices.
• Identify evidence-based interventions that are effective, efficient, cost-effective, and equitable for promoting wellness and disease prevention in the specific area and population.

Additional Requirements

Complete your assessment using the following specifications:

• Title page and reference page.

Today, it is clear that evidence-based practice continues to result in tremendous patient outcomes.  Melynk and Fineout-Overholt (2015) discuss that as with any scope of the healthcare field, evidenced-based practices heighten ethical concerns.  Some of the ambitions hidden in the advancement of evidence-based practice are, at the core, ethical (p. 515).  However, it is critical to consistently ensure the protection of personal rights in those subjects involved in research studies.  

Methods  

In order to protect the personal rights of human subjects involved in research studies, it is vital for providers to be aware of the federal regulations and policies that are in place.  Bierer, Barnes, and Lynch (2017) explain that the research with human subjects is funded by federal agencies and is controlled by a set of regulations and methods that were created in order to protect study participants while facilitating the advancement of research (p. 784).  These federal regulations assist in protecting basic human rights, such as beneficence, and help in defending vulnerable populations from experiencing harm.  Furthermore, the Institutional Review Board must grant approval for the research study to commence.  Bierer, Barnes, and Lynch (2017) explain that the Institutional Review Board must meticulously review the ethics and appropriateness of a proposed research project and the participation of the enlisted human subjects (p. 786).  

It is also essential to identify vulnerable human subjects that are involved in a research project.  Clark and Preto (2018) discuss that vulnerability has emerged and is identified in research as one’s inability to defend one’s own best interests, awareness to harm, and various determinants to one’s determinants of health (p. 308).  Providing patients with a thorough education and pertinent handouts regarding the details of the study is key.  Bierer, Barnes, and Lynch (2017) explain that individuals that are registered in a research study must be given a comprehensive understanding of the risks, benefits, and other pertinent information (p. 784).  

Conclusion 

It is critical to consistently ensure the protection of personal rights of those individuals enlisted in a research project.  Davis (2018) emphasizes that in order to protect human participants in research, organizations must follow policies for the protection of human research subjects.  Regardless of whether research takes place in medical or private facilities, human subject protection can only be guaranteed if the Institutional Review Board closely oversees the research it has approved (p. 92).
