Mr. D is a 90-year-old man who was admitted to the hospital with complaints of nausea, vomiting, left arm pain, and chest pain. An electrocardiogram (ECG) is performed, and he is diagnosed as having a myocardial infarction.

Mr. D has a long history of comorbidities including hypertension, diabetes, and congestive heart failure (CHF). With this in mind, the physician asks Mr. D if he wants life-sustaining measures taken (e.g., CPR, mechanical ventilation, etc.) should he experience cardiopulmonary arrest.

Mr. D tells the physician that he wants all measures taken to save his life.

Imagine that you are the nurse assigned to provide care to Mr. D, and address the following:

  1. Considering Mr. D's advanced age, what are the benefits/risks associated with providing life-sustaining measures?
  2. What factors should you consider based on Mr. D's age and health history?
  3. If Mr. D were your family member, how would you respond to his decision?

A patent was granted for the compound, and all of the required animal testing was submitted to the FDA with the IND application. The FDA gave approval to proceed with human testing. Construct a one-page summary of what you think should be the required studies Phase I, II, and III to submit in the NDA. For each phase, include the objective of the study (studies), type of subjects selected, outcomes measures (i.e. cholesterol reduction and safety), and results. Be creative!! We are interested in your approach based upon your readings.
