John Doe entered ABC Hospital ER with c/o chest pain, SOB, and nausea. The doctor on call

Ordered an EKG, blood work, began a regimen of O2, and prescribed salicylic acid. The initial blood

work had the following findings: WBC 8300; RBC 5.3; normal levels of troponin; HDL 43; LDL 220;

BUN25.

John has a hx of CHF and CKD. John’s VS were as follows: BP 163/88; HR 93; RR 24. John takes medicine

for HTN and Nitro for angina pectoris. John is independent with ADL’s, lives alone, and amb with a WW.

The ER doctor ordered anxiety medication b.i.d. and continued with oxygen at 2mL. After further

Assessment, MI was ruled out.

John’s condition improved and he was sent home to f/u with his GP. He was ordered to begin cardiac rehabilitation and wear a heart monitor. The heart monitor was to assess his heart for a-fib.

Questions

1. Identify which blood tests were abnormal?
2. What did the doctor prescribe in the ER? How does this help?
3. What condition was ruled out? How did they rule this condition out?
4. What did John have prior to his visit to the ER?
5. What does John take medicine for?
6. Why is he wearing the heart monitor? What happens with this condition?
7. How often does he take anxiety medication?
8. What does ADL mean?
9. What do you know about his ability to walk?

briefly describe what assessment and care you provide and when?

CRITICAL THINKING:

1) What is venipuncture?

2) What are some problems that medical assistants may encounter when attempting to draw blood from patients – and particularly from elderly patients?

3) Susan, a medical assistant, is having trouble finding a venipuncture site on the left arm of her patient, Gabel, although Susan has thoroughly assessed and palpated the antecubital veins, including the bigger median cubital vein. Gabel doesn’t want Susan to draw blood from her right arm. What techniques are available to Susan to make the veins on Gabel’s left arm more prominent?

1. Background of the microbes

-What is the structure?

-What is the unique feature?

2. Transmission route

- direct? indirect?

- when the microbe left human body, what is the survival rate?

- what is the basic reproductive member? (e.g. one people being infect, it can spread to two people)

3. Host-pathogen relationships

- The microbe uses what mechanism to escape the immune system (first line, second line, third line) enter body

- what is the method of microbe use and how it enter body (e.g. stick the mucosa...)?

4. Virulence factors and pathogenicity

- what is the virulence factors of this microbes?

- how much virulence factors that the microbes use to damage body?

- how to damage body (e.g. attack the cell and make you easily being sick, )?

-which molecule of body being break down and how it causes disease?

- when body being attack, which disease it will induce, induce which severe disease?

5. Treatment

- suggest one drug to treat Staphylococcus aureus

- introduce the drug

- target step

- how the drug does in body

- how it affects the bacteria
