what are the prioity nursing diagnosis.

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 (see Assessment Case Study in Chapter 55 (Links to an external site.) on pp. 1302, 1304, and 1307 (Links to an external site.)). 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.

  1. Open Doors, Inc., produces two types of doors, interior and exterior. The company’s simple costing system has two direct cost categories (materials and labor) and one indirect cost pool. The simple costing system allocates indirect costs on the basis of machine-hours. Recently, the owners of Open Doors have been concerned about a decline in the market share for their interior doors, usually their biggest seller. Information related to Open Doors production for the most recent year follows:

Interior                                    Exterior           

Units sold                                                        3,200                                       1,800

Selling price                                                    $ 125                                       $ 200   

Direct material cost per unit                           $ 30                                         $ 45

Direct manufacturing labor cost per hour      $ 16                                         $ 16

Direct manufacturing labor-hours per unit     1.50                                         2.25

Production runs                                               40                                            85

Material moves                                               72                                            168

Machine setups                                               45                                            155

Machine-hours                                                5,500                                       4,500

The owners have heard of other companies in the industry that are now using an activity-based costing system and are curious how an ABC system would affect their product costing decisions. After analyzing the indirect cost pool for Open Doors, four activities were identified as generating indirect costs: production scheduling, material handling, machine setup and  assembly. Open Doors collected the following data related to the indirect cost activities:

Activity                                   Activity           Cost                 Activity Cost Driver

Production scheduling                        $95,000                       Production runs

Material handling                               $45,000                       Material moves

Machine setup                                     $25,000                       Machine setups

Assembly                                            $60,000                       Machine-hours

ITP 100 Programming Assignment 1

This program uses the Little-Crab-3 scenario complete the following steps. Start with a fresh un-edited copy of Little-Crab-3. When finished paste each of your class source code files into word and submit through Canvas.

1.   Change the code to make the crabs turn left when the l (lowercase L) key is pressed. Make the crabs turn right when the r key is pressed.

public void act()

   {

       if(Greenfoot.isKeyDown("l"))

       {

           turn(-15);

       }

       if (Greenfoot.isKeyDown("r"))

       {

           turn(15);

       }

           

   }

2.   Make changes to the code so that the worms will randomly move between 1 and 10 each time act is pressed

public void act()

{

   if( Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(1));

   {

      move(4);

   }

   if( Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(10));

}

Move(4);

}

3.     Make changes to the code so that the worm will randomly eat lobsters 15% of the time (you may need to check if you are touching a Lobster first)

public void act()

{

   if ( isAtEdge())

   {

       turn(17);

   }

   if( Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(100)<15 )

   {

       turn(4);

   }

   move(5);

}

4.   Create a method named mover that has an integer parameter named distance, and no return type. This method causes the crab to move the value of the distance parameter.

public void act()

{ randomMove();

}

void randomMove()

{

move(Greenfoot.getRandomNumber(15);

}

5. Add code that will cause the crab to turn 17 if the q button is pressed

public void act()

   {

       turnCrab();

   }

   void turnCrab()

   {

       if(Greenfoot.isKeyDown("q"))

       {

           turn(17);

       }

   }

6.   Add code that will cause the crab to turn -17 if they w button is pressed

public void act()

   {

       turnCrab();

   }

   void turnCrab()

   {

       if(Greenfoot.isKeyDown("w"))

       {

           turn(-17);

       }

   }

Rate of Return for Stocks and Bonds

Purpose of Assignment

The purpose of this assignment is to allow the student an opportunity to calculate the rate of return of equity and debt instruments. It allows the student to understand the effects of dividends; capital gains; inflation rates; and how the nominal rate of return affects valuation and pricing. The assignment also allows the student to apply concepts related to CAPM, WACC, and Flotation Costs to understand the influence of debt and equity on the company's capital structure.

Assignment Steps

Resources: Corporate Finance

Calculate the following problems using Excel or a Word document:

Stock Valuation: A stock has an initial price of $100 per share, paid a dividend of $2.00 per share during the year, and had an ending share price of $125. Compute the percentage total return, capital gains yield, and dividend yield.

Total Return: You bought a share of 4% preferred stock for $100 last year. The market price for your stock is now $120. What was your total return for last year?

CAPM: A stock has a beta of 1.20, the expected market rate of return is 12%, and a risk-free rate of 5 percent. What is the expected rate of return of the stock?

WACC: The Corporation has a targeted capital structure of 80% common stock and 20% debt. The cost of equity is 12% and the cost of debt is 7%. The tax rate is 30%. What is the company's weighted average cost of capital (WACC)?

Flotation Costs: Medina Corp. has a debt-equity ratio of .75. The company is considering a new plant that will cost $125 million to build. When the company issues new equity, it incurs a flotation cost of 10%. The flotation cost on new debt is 4%. What is the initial cost of the plant if the company raises all equity externally?

Normative changes in cognitive function are expected with increasing age. Research on the relationship between normative cognitive decline and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and sedentary behavior (SED) needs further investigation in Hispanic/Latinos adults. We assessed the association between accelerometer assessed MVPA and SED with cognitive function in 7,478 adults aged 45-74years from the Hispanic Community Health Study/Study of Latinos. At baseline, cognitive tests included two executive function tests (Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST), a test of language (Word Fluency), and a test of memory (Spanish English Verbal Learning Test). Multiple regression models were used to examine associations of time spent in MVPA and SED with cognitive function by age groups, adjusted for age, education, sex, acculturation, and field center. Mean time spent in sedentary behaviors was 12.3 hours/day in females and 11.9 hours/day in males. Higher SED, but not MVPA, was associated with lower DSST raw scores (β -0.03 with each 10-min increment in SED; P<0.05), indicating lower performance in executive function in all age groups. No associations were observed for MVPA and SED with tests of language or memory tests. Our findings suggest a distinct association of SED but not MVPA on executive functioning in middle-aged and older Latino adults. Further studies are needed to more conclusively determine causal links.
