Examples are ‘Pharmacological Management of Deep Vein Thrombosis and/or Pulmonary Embolisms Using Anticoagulants/Thrombolytics and Nursing Implications’ or ‘Pharmacological Effects of Anti-hypertensive Medications in the Management of Hypertension and Nursing Implications’.
   • Nursing Implications are the nursing related consequences and what you as the nurse should be looking for in the treatment and care of your patient.

                   Discussion: Data Analysis—Small Group Discussion

As a nurse engaged in evidence-based practice, it is important to recognize how statistics and other data analysis tools are used to generate and assess evidence. Most nurses need only a foundational understanding of statistical tools and terminology to understand the majority of research studies. As a nurse, you should be able to recognize the most commonly used statistical tests, how and when they are used, and how significance is determined.

In this Discussion, you examine different types of statistics and statistical tests, when and why these particular tests would be selected for use, and, most importantly, what the results indicate. To this end, you will be assigned to a group by Day 1 of this week. Each group will be assigned one of the five chapters listed in this week’s Learning Resources and will develop a study sheet on their chapter that will be shared with the other groups.

    Review the information in your assigned chapter.( CHAPTER 19)-BOOK ATTACHED BELLOW

    Look for: 

        The key concepts of the chapter: Focus on the basic concepts that are important for nurses to understand as they review research studies.

A description of the statistical methods covered in the chapter, 

What they measure, and under what circumstances they are used. 

Identify examples of how the statistical methods have been used in research studies.

        

An explanation of the key statistical tests and how they measure significance (if applicable).

Culture and Health

Your comments will be graded on how well they meet the Discussion Requirements posted under “Before You Begin.” Before delving into your response to the Discussion question, I would like us to continue to get to know each other through an icebreaker.

You will be seeing these icebreakers at the beginning of each module’s Discussion. The icebreaker for this Discussion is as follows:   

I want you to fill-in-the-blank to the following statement. People would be surprised to know that ____________ (share something interesting/unique about yourself that people would be surprised to know).   

After answering the icebreaker question, please answer the following question in your Discussion response:     
To what extent do you think cultural beliefs, values, and traditions may impact health education efforts? To what extent do you think cultural beliefs, values, and traditions may enhance health education efforts?     

Please answer both questions in your response and draw on specific examples from the Worlds Apart video clips that you watched in this module:

Case 2: Volume 1, Case #14: The scatter-brained mother whose daughter has ADHD, like mother, like daughter

· Review the patient intake documentation, psychiatric history, patient file, medication history, etc. As you progress through each section, formulate a list of questions that you might ask the patient if he or she were in your office. 

· Based on the patient’s case history, consider other people in his or her life that you would need to speak to or get feedback from (i.e., family members, teachers, nursing home aides, etc.).

· Consider whether any additional physical exams or diagnostic testing may be necessary for the patient.

· Develop a differential diagnoses for the patient. Refer to the DSM-5 in this week’s Learning Resources for guidance. 

· Review the patient’s past and current medications. Refer to Stahl’s Prescriber’s Guide and consider medications you might select for this patient.

Post a response to the following:

· List three questions you might ask the patient if he or she were in your office. Provide a rationale for why you might ask these questions. 

· Identify people in the patient’s life you would need to speak to or get feedback from to further assess the patient’s situation. Include specific questions you might ask these people and why.

· Explain what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate for the patient and how the results would be used.

· List three differential diagnoses for the patient. Identify the one that you think is most likely and explain why.

· List two pharmacologic agents and their dosing that would be appropriate for the patient’s ADHD therapy based on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. From a mechanism of action perspective, provide a rationale for why you might choose one agent over the other.

· If your assigned case includes “check points” (i.e., follow-up data at week 4, 8, 12, etc.), indicate any therapeutic changes that you might make based on the data provided.

· Explain “lessons learned” from this case study, including how you might apply this case to your own practice when providing care to patients with similar clinical presentations.
