Description:

Shenya Jones, 34-year-old female, arrives at the office with swelling and a red pustule on her face. She states that the problem started 2 days ago as a small pimple near her nose. It became irritated, and then extremely swollen and painful overnight. This morning, she noticed yellow drainage at the lesion site and the swelling has increased. The area of drainage is approximately 1 cm in diameter. Her upper lip, side of the face, and nose are all swollen. The examination and treatment areas need to be prepared before you bring her to the back office.

Discussion Questions:

1. What needs to be done before Shenya is brought back into the exam room?

2. Shenya is diagnosed with community-acquired MRSA (a highly contagious microorganism). What measures should you take to ensure there is no transfer of infection?

3. After Shenya’s examination, you will need to use an ultrasonic cleaner for sanitization. Describe how you would proceed and what source you would use if you had questions about the cleaner you are using.

P.S: Please answer all 3 questions individually. Thank you.

Mr. Elder Lee, age 86, is admitted for a hip replacement. His H&H upon admission is 9.0 g/dl and 28%. The doctor wants two units crossmatched and held for a possible transfusion. You receive his properly labeled specimen and proceed with the crossmatch. Here are your findings for the type and screen:

1. What is your interpretation of the forward grouping?

2. What is your interpretation of the reverse grouping?

3. What type of discrepancy do you suspect?

4. Name two ways to resolve the discrepancy.

rough draft for this assignment 17 years female arrives in the ER with severe bleeding from a motor vehicle accident (MVA). Her parents are Jehovah's Witnesses and have refused any blood products for her. Her injuries could be fatal if she doesn’t receive any blood. Once you have selected a scenario: Introduce the concept of ethics with purpose statement Analyze the scenario using the ethical decision-making model Integrate ethical principles and process using concepts from Black text AND ANA Code of Ethics text Identify current research (last 5 years) that is useful for assisting nurses when handling ethical dilemmas, using at least one journal article. Use scholarly APA format with title and reference page. Use correct grammar and punctuation with clear and organized writing (not written in first person). Your assignment should be approximately 3-5 pages in length.

How could Marie have acquired herpes? (Hint: there are multiple possibilities). 3. What can Marie do to cope with her current outbreak? 4. How might she discuss this situation with Christina?

Sam is a 25-year-old college student. He works full time in addition to taking a full course load. He usually eats fast-food cheeseburgers and fries in his car for lunch and a take-out pepperoni pizza right before bed. Sam has noticed that he has put on some extra weight in the past few months, and his clothes are fitting very tight. He also has been experiencing severe heartburn several nights a week. Come up with some changes that Sam can make to his daily habits to help alleviate his heartburn.

Precis 3

You will have two arguments to address from both Chapter 8 and Chapter 9.

From Chapter 8, Exercise 8.9, write a precis on passages 4 and 5.

4: If the Copernican and Darwinian theories are reasonable representatives of scientific revolutions, Sigmund Freud’s theory of psychology is a candidate for a revolution in thought. Thus, because both the Copernican and Darwinian theories are reasonable representatives of scientific revolutions, Freud’s theory is a candidate for a revolution in thought.- Friedel Wienert, Copernicus, Darwin, and Freud.

5: Infants can recognize human voices as early as 7 months of age. Researchers studied brain activity in 32 infants, half of whom were 4 months of age and the other half 7 months old. Researchers played different sounds, including human voices speaking nonsense languages, and brain activity suggested that the 7 month-olds could distinguish the human voice from the other sounds and the 4 month olds could not.- Neuron

(1) Plants are a lot like animals, because they both transfer energy of one kind to energy of another. Since most plants get their energy directly or indirectly from sunlight, animals, too, must get their energy from sunlight.-Tom Garrison, Oceanography.

(4) When studying the frontal lobe, the part of the brain that considers the consequences of actions, we made an insightful discovery about the adolescent brain. A major reason why adolescents often make poor decisions is because the nerve cells that connect their frontal lobes with the rest of their brains are sluggish.- Neuroscientist Frances Jensen.
