3. Activity: Develop a plan of care for a 55 year old male patient
who has prostate cancer.
a. Assessment, (1) Nursing diagnosis, Plan (2 short
term and 2 long term goals), Implementation, Evaluation.
b. Create a list of dietary recommendations (4) for
men that could possibly decrease their risk for development of
prostate cancer.
c. You are the nurse caring for a 34-year old male who
has just been diagnosed with testicular cancer. Your patient has
been married for 3 years, and has a 1-year old daughter. The
patient states to you, "I am afraid I am going to die, but I cannot
miss work to have surgery. My wife is not employed, and stays home
with our daughter." Instruct students to devise a list of 5
appropriate nursing responses to this statement that will address
the patient's concerns of dying, and supporting his
family.
d. Discuss Finasteride (Proscar) and assess its safety
profile. Create a list of 3 nursing interventions that would
support delivering this medication safely to a patient.
e. Provide 3 teaching points for a patient who is
being discharged after TURP.
Notes:
Be sure to include citation.
Review ADPIE. Make sure 2 short term and 2 long term
goals are included which are SMART. Review SMART.
Address all components of the question(s) to receive
full credit.

Lab 5: Practice Dilution Problems
You have a stock solution that contains 24 mg/ml of protein. You want to make a set of standards with the following concentrations:
8 mg/ml
4 mg/ml
2 mg/ml
You need a minimum of 300 ul of each standard.
Using the technique of serial dilution, explain how you would make your standards by filling in the chart below.

Find an important engineering failure that involves some of the topics discussed in MSE 350. Describe the failure, why it occurred, the damage (human, environmental, and economic) and the changes that could have been made in the design to avoid the failure. Was the failure caused by lack of engineering knowledge at the time, engineering error, or management/government error? Discuss!!
For each of the following common items, identify what they are commonly made of, the material type (composite, metal, semiconductor, polymer , ceramic, glass. Describe why that material type is used. Include at least two references for your answers (websites are fine, but try and find good ones). If more than one material type is used in the items, include them all! Be careful to use proper engineering vocabulary when answering this question!

a) will never occur on its own
b) could occur on its own, but might take a long time
c) has to occur immediately
13) Disulfide bridges stabilize which of the following levels of protein structure?
a) primary
b) secondary
c) tertiary
d) all of the above
e) none of the above
d) has an overall positive free energy change (ΔG)
e) decreases entropy, according to the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics
14) In your research, you expose a culture of amoebae to mutating radiation and then isolate a mutant cell that is unable to move (it cannot crawl around), but otherwise grows, divides, and appears normal. You suspect that most likely, this cell has a mutation in a gene that encodes a protein involved in:
a) actin filament formation
b) microtubule formation
c) ribosome assembly
d) intermediate filament formation
e) DNA formation

You have been talking to a student from the engineering program at UBC who has also taken up temporary residence at the North Pole in between active semesters of her studies. Because of her engineering background, the elves have given her the nickname “Casey Jones”. Casey scoffs at the α = .05 significance level that psychologists use in their hypothesis testing procedure. She tells you “That means you will, in the long run, make an error one time in twenty. If engineers had an error rate like that think of all the buildings and bridges and such that would be falling down! Why don’t you psychologists be more like engineers and set your error rate to something like one in a million instead of one in twenty?” Explain to Casey Jones why, in the context in which psychologists use it, an alpha level of one in twenty makes more sense than an alpha level of one in a million.
