Exercise Content

1. Use APA 6th Edition Format and support your work with at least 3 peer-reviewed references within 5 years of publication. Remember that you need a cover page and a reference page. All paragraphs need to be cited properly. Please use headers.  All responses must be in a narrative format and each paragraph must have at least 4 sentences. Lastly, you must have at least 2 pages of content, no greater than 4 pages, excluding cover page and reference page.

   Chronic Stable Angina

   E.H. is a 45-year-old African American man who recently moved to the community from another state. He requests renewal of a prescription for a calcium channel blocker, prescribed by a physician in the former state. He is unemployed and lives with a woman, their son, and the woman’s 2 children. His past medical history is remarkable for asthma and six “heart attacks” that he claims occurred because of a 25-year history of drug use (primarily cocaine). He states that he used drugs as recently as 2 weeks ago. He does not have any prior medical records with him. He claims that he has been having occasional periods of chest pain. He is unable to report the duration or pattern of the pain. Before proceeding, explore the following questions: What further information would you need to diagnose angina (substantiate your answer)? What is the connection between cocaine use and angina? Identify at least three tests that you would order to diagnose angina.

   Diagnosis: Angina

   1. List specific goals of treatment for E.H.
   2. What dietary and lifestyle changes should be recommended for this patient?
   3. What drug therapy would you prescribe for E.H. and why?
   4. How would you monitor for success in E.H.?
   5. Describe one or two drug–drug or drug–food interactions for the selected agent.
   6. List one or two adverse reactions for the selected agent that would cause you to change therapy.
   7. What would be the choice for the second-line therapy?
   8. Discuss specific patient education based on the prescribed first-line therapy.
   9. What over-the-counter and/or alternative medications would be appropriate for E.H.?

  

NURSING PICO QUESTION

1. Formulate a PICO question for your “Design A Research Study” assignment. Use the following formulated question as PICO question to create the Concept Map:

Which form of oxytocin administration during the third stage of labor is most effective in reducing the risk of postpartum hemorrhage?

1. Create a concept map for your PICO question, using the module resources on concept mapping. Using guidelines from the concept mapping topic of this module, create a new concept map based on your PICO question. See resources and guidelines attached below 
2. The first step is in concept mapping to create boxes with the four pieces of your PICO.
3. Then begin making connections between the population, intervention, comparison, and outcomes for your question. 
4. Expand your map by including additional levels of concepts, ideas, and search terms (synonyms) for each subtopic. 
5. You should have at least three levels of sub-concepts in addition to your main PICO concepts. This process will help you tremendously when you begin to search the databases for literature on your paper topic.

Professor’s instructions:

Write an annotated bibliography in APA format for one reputable public health resources. Choose an international, national, or local public health-related journal or website that would be useful for the advanced practice nurse in determining the current healthcare needs of vulnerable populations. For each annotation, emphasize key terms commonly used within the context of public health. 

– I just need an annotated bibliography in APA format for the article I attached. 300 words minimum. NEED it by tomorrow morning. 

 

This week, you will complete the Research Clinic simulation from the perspective of Dr. Richard Sowers, the Principal Investigator (PI), and then reflect on the experience.

Go to the following website:

https://ori.hhs.gov/the-research-clinic

• Click the Play Full Video button and watch the opening introduction video. After you finish the video, in the lower right corner, click Next > to see the characters. Select Dr. Richard Sowers.
• Proceed through the simulation as Dr. Richard Sowers, noting the different decisions you make along with their effects. Go through the simulation a few times and make different decisions to see the different effects they cause.
• Write a reflective paper describing the process you went through and the results you received based on the different decisions you made as Dr. Richard Sowers. Recall your previous experience with this simulation as Jan Klein, RN, the clinical research coordinator. Discuss how both roles can affect a research study depending on which decisions are made.
• Your paper should be 2 to 3 pages in length, not including the cover page or reference page, written in current APA format, using Times New Roman 12-point font, double-spaced with 1-inch margins. Use a minimum of one peer-reviewed or scholarly reference published within the last five years to support your findings on the research process and ethics.
