Scenario

Y.L., a 34-year-old Southern Asian woman, comes to the clinic with chronic fatigue, increased thirst, constant hunger, and frequent urination. She denies any pain, burning, or low-back pain on urination. She tells you she has a vaginal yeast infection that she has treated many times with over-the-counter medication. She works full time as a clerk in a loan company and states she has difficulty reading numbers and reports, resulting in her making frequent mistakes. She says, “By the time I get home and make supper for my family, then put my child to bed, I am too tired to exercise.” She reports her feet hurt; they often “burn or feel like there are pins in them.” She has a history of gestational diabetes and reports following a traditional eating pattern, which is high in carbohydrates.

In reviewing Y.L.’s chart, you note she last saw the provider 6 years ago after the delivery of her last child. She has gained considerable weight; her current weight is 173 pounds (78.5 kg). Today her BP is 152/97 mm Hg, and a random plasma glucose level is 291 mg/dL (16.2 mmol/L). The provider suspects she has developed type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and orders the laboratory studies shown in the chart.

1. Interpret Y.L.’s laboratory results.


2. Identify 3 methods used to diagnose DM.


3. Describe the major pathophysiologic difference between type 1 and type 2 DM.


4. Name 6 risk factors for type 2 DM. Underline those that Y.L. has.

CASE STUDY PROGRESS

Y.L. is diagnosed with type 2 DM. The provider starts her on metformin (Glucophage) 500 mg, glipizide (Glucotrol) 5 mg, orally each day at breakfast and atorvastatin 20 mg orally at bedtime. She is referred to the dietitian for instructions on starting a 1200-calorie diet using an exchange system to facilitate weight loss and lower blood glucose, cholesterol, and triglyceride levels. You are to provide teaching about pharmacotherapy and exercise.

5. How can you incorporate Y.L.’s cultural preferences as you develop her teaching plan?


6. What is the reason for starting Y.L. on metformin and glipizide?


7. Outline the teaching you need to provide to Y.L. about oral hypoglycemic therapy.


8. What do you teach Y.L. to do if she becomes ill with the flu or viral illness?


9. You determine she understands your teaching about treating hypoglycemia if she states, “If my blood sugar is low, I should first have:

an apple with milk.”
peanut butter sandwich.”
fruit juice or regular soda.”
crackers with cheese slices.”

10. What benefits should Y.L. receive from exercising?


11. What do you need to teach Y.L. about exercise?


12. Besides the dietitian, what interprofessional and community referrals may be appropriate for Y.L.?


CASE STUDY PROGRESS

Y.L. comments, “I’ve heard many people with diabetes lose their toes or even their feet.” You take this opportunity to teach her about neuropathy and foot care.

13. Which symptoms that Y.L. reported today led you to believe she has some form of neuropathy?


14. What other findings in Y.L.’s history increased her risk for developing neuropathy?


15. What would you teach Y.L. about neuropathy?


16. Because Y.L. has symptoms of neuropathy, placing her at risk for foot complications, you realize you need to instruct her on proper foot care. Outline what you will include when teaching her about proper diabetic foot care.


17. What monitoring will Y.L. need for nephropathy and retinopathy?


CASE STUDY OUTCOME

Y.L. returns to the clinic 6 weeks later. Her BP is 130/78 mm Hg and fasting glucose level is 153 mg/dL (8.5 mmol/L). She says she has not had any episodes of tingling in her toes or blurred vision lately. She did meet with the diabetic educator. She is making changes to her eating, has started walking, and is happy to have lost 6 pounds (2.7 kg).

Select a cultural competency model below that best supports Indian Culture, and explain why the model was selected. Use the model to address techniques and challenges in providing culturally competent health care/services to your specific population.

■Berlin and Fowkes’ LEARN model (Effective Communication) - Created as a tool to improve communication in patient-physician interactions.Supplement to history taking.

■Cross Cultural Competence Continuum (Developmental)

■Campinha-Bacote (Developmental) - the framework of cultural competence is defined in the process of cultural competence in the delivery of the Health Care Services Model. In this model, cultural competence is viewed as a process, and not an endpoint, in which one continually strives to achieve the ability to effectively work within the context of an individual, family, or community from a diverse cultural-ethnic background

■Explanatory Model: Kleinman (Effective Communication) - An explanatory model reveals how people make sense of their illness and their experiences of it. Used to explain how people view their illness in terms of how it happens, what causes it, how it affects them, and what will make them feel better.

Patient Profile

J.K. is a 57-yr-old white woman who was is referred to the neurosurgery service for management of her temporal-parietal glioblastoma. She was diagnosed after presenting with persistent headaches, a seizure in her HCP's office, and left side upper visual field loss and neglect. Her MRI/MRA demonstrated a temporal-parietal glioblastoma that extends into the occipital lobes. She is scheduled for surgery to debulk the tumor. J.K. lives alone and holds a management position. She is concerned about her ability to return to work after her surgery.

J.K. returns from surgery to the neurosurgery unit drowsy but following commands. During the night J.K. is noted to have a pronator drift of the left arm, her pupils are equal and respond to light, but she has also developed left-sided weakness of both arm and leg and difficulty with answering questions.

Medications: dexamethasone 4 mg q6hr, famotidine, metoclopramide, ondansetron (Zofran), codeine, and levetiracetam (Keppra) since her admitting seizure.

Subjective Data

  • Left arm and leg are weak and feel numb
  • She is trying to answer questions but looks confused and cannot follow commands.

Objective Data

  • BP 150/90 mm Hg
  • right gaze preference
  • Left homonymous hemianopsia
  • Left arm weakness (3/5) greater than leg weakness (4/5)
  • Decreased sensation on both left arm and leg
  • Has speech but not clear. Difficulty with word finding and following commands
  • A diagnostic CT scan demonstrates a hemorrhagic stroke into the site of the tumor bed, and temporal-parietal and anterior occipital areas extending into the thalamus.

Questions:

#1. What are the priority nursing interventions and decisions that have to be made regarding safety and self-care related to the left neglect and visual field cut?

#2. Based on the assessment data provided, what are the priority nursing diagnoses?

#3. How can you work together with the interprofessional team to develop and implement strategies to improve communication for J.K.?
