Part 1: Pharmacology

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?

I have been playing with the idea of returning to school since I graduated with my Associate’s Degree in 2008. Like so many, the time ‘never seemed right’ between work and family. My family is now more self-sufficient and I feel this is a good starting point. I plan to use this as a teachable moment for my children where hard work and dedication is demonstrated to them. Additionally, in my current nursing role, I would qualify to then sit for my school nurse certification once my Bachelor’s Degree is completed. Obtaining your baccalaureate degree is quickly becoming the standard in the nursing profession. It is important to me and my nursing practice to continue with my education to support the continuum of optimal care to those I serve.

I anticipate there to be many challenges along this course in earning an additional degree. Balancing home/family time, work and studies is at the top of the list, along with many others I am sure. I ideally, with my peers want to be successful in my classwork; finding my method to making that happen does create healthy anxiety. Much has changed in the world since I last stepped foot into a classroom. Catching up to those changes can be stressful while maintaing satisfactory work. It will take slow and deliberate attention to produce the quality of work that I feel I am capable to produce.

I feel in order to be an effective and successful student; my top priority is going to be establishment of the right study habits right away. Time management will come into play as the study material is managed in such a manner to retain the information that I am reviewing. I am fond of reviewing material ahead of time to prepare for discussion questions, papers and responses to fellow classmates. Personally, I feel reduced anxiety when I feel prepared and have enough time to form my responses. With the entirety of this program being on line for me, I feel that organization, preparedness and time management are going to be the most useful to me in order to be as successful as possible.

 

Choose a nursing theory and research an article that includes a nursing theory and its utilization in nursing practice or nursing research. Write a two paragraph summary of the article highlighting the application of the selected nursing theory to nursing practice and reaserach .Article should be current, peer reviewed and within a five year span, use APA format for the  references and citations.  400 t0 500 words. Please  DO NOT PLAGIARISM. In advance thank you very much.
