Mandy is a 10-year-old female with cystic fibrosis who weighs 62 pounds and is 51 inches tall and is considered low active.

1-Calculate Mandy’s estimated energy requirement given her DRI and medical condition using the following information (5 points) EER for Girls 9 through 18 Years EER = 135.3 – (30.8 ´ age [y]) + PA ´ (10.0 ´ weight [kg] + 934 ´ height [m]) + 25 kcal PA = 1.00 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.0 < 1.4 (sedentary) PA = 1.13 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.4 < 1.6 (low active) PA = 1.26 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.6 < 1.9 (active) PA = 1.42 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.9 < 2.5 (very active)

2-Calculate Mandy’s protein requirement given her DRI and medical condition (5 points). EER DRI Table

3-The estimated calorie requirement for an individual with cystic fibrosis is two to four times the usual recommendation. How would one know the appropriate calorie level to recommend initially? (5 points)

4-Research nutrition recommendations for cystic fibrosis that can assist an individual with meeting her high calorie and protein requirements (i.e., use the text and reputable websites). What advice could you provide to a patient?

SCENARIO OVERVIEW: Red Yoder is an 80-year-old farmer who lives alone in the farmhouse where he grew up. It is located 20 miles outside of town. Red has been a widower for 10 years. His son, Jon, manages the farm now, but Red is still involved in the decision making. Red is still involved in the decision making. Red's current medical problems include insulin dependent diabetes complicated by an open foot wound. Jon stopped by to check on Red after one of his friends from the VFW called to say that Red didn't make it for coffee. The nearest VA hospital is more than 100 miles away and the doctor told him that Red needed to be seen immediately. He is admitted for possible sepsis. Activities Required Prior to Simulation: Use textbook and other resources to answer questions:

1. What teaching is priority in the management of wound care for a diabetic client?

2. Describe the proper techniques to assess and care for a diabetic wound.

3. Identify the individual and environmental cues that can increase the risk for skin integrity issues in a diabetic client.

ll system owns and operates a hospital and employees primary care physicians, general surgeons, and oncologist. The hospital purchased a surgical practice in 2012. Part of the purchase of the Proctors included the purchase of the electronic medical record system that was a certified EHR. In January 2014, the hospital transition the primary care physicians, surgeons, and the radiologist in the hospital to a new certified electronic health record, the implementation of which was completed 10 months later in October of 2014. The positions did not satisfy the MU criteria from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014 because of the transition to a new certified EHR system. In addition, in 2015 the hospital's electronic medical record vendor informed the hospital that it would not be able to satisfy the Stage 3 interoperability and technology standards by January 2018.

2. Describe the timeline of the program and its potential financial impact on the individual healthcare providers who are involved in MU.

3. Describe the process the physicians must complete to avoid the payment penalties.

4. Describe the time frame for the provider to achieve modified Stage 2 and Stage 3 measures.

5. Discuss what the hospital must do to achieve the MU objectives for interoperability.

1) You have read that individual perception of happiness is affected by marriage. To test it, you decide to gather 5 participants who rated happiness on a level of 1 to 20 before being married and the same rating was requested one year into their marriage. Compute an appropriate test: Participants Single Married

Step 1: State your null and alternative hypothesis

Step 2: State your critical value. What is your alpha level? Is this one-tailed or two-tailed? How many degrees of freedom?

Step 3: Compute the appropriate statistic for an obtained score

Step 4: Make your decision, should you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? What can you conclude? (3 points) Should you compute effect size? If so, do it! What do you conclude from this statistic? - Of course, you should also report the appropriate proportion of variability

Write a formal paragraph to interpret your scores.(5 points)

Budget Question:  

Gutierrez Company, a publicly held corporation, operates a regional chain of large drugstores. Each drugstore is operated by a general manager and a controller. The general manager is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the store, while the controller is responsible for the budget and other financial tasks. The general manager, Tracie Kappan, has been at Gutierrez Company for several years. Employee turnover is high at Gutierrez Company, just as it is in the retail industry in general. Kappan just hired a new controller, Min Yang.

Yang was asked to prepare the master budget. Each retail location prepares its master budget once a year and then submits that budget to company headquarters for approval. Once approved by headquarters, the master budget is used to evaluate the store’s performance. These performance evaluations directly affect the managers’ bonuses and whether additional company funds are invested in that location.

When Yang was almost done preparing the budget, Kappan instructed him to increase the amounts budgeted for labor and supplies by 20%. When asked why, Kappan responded that this budgetary cushion gives store management flexibility in running the store. For example, because company headquarters tightly controls operating funds and capital improvement funds, any extra money budgeted for labor and supplies can be used to replace store furnishings or to pay bonuses to help to retain good employees. She explains that the chance of getting extra funds from company headquarters is not good; this “cushion” is usually the only opportunity to replace store décor or to pay bonuses to key employees. Kappan also needs extra funds occasionally to make “under the table” payments to employees as incentives to work extra hours or to keep them from leaving for a higher-paying job.

Yang feels conflicted. He is eager to please Kappan, and he is wondering what he should do in this situation.

1. Who are the stakeholders in the scenario?

2. Who is responsible for the situation Min Yang is in? The Company or the General Manager? Why do you think that?

3. What would do if you were Min Yang?

A car insurance company advertises that customers switching to their insurance save, on average, $435 on their yearly premiums. A market researcher at a competing insurance discounter is interested in showing that this value is an overestimate so he can provide evidence to government regulators that the company is falsely advertising their prices. He randomly samples 83 customers who recently switched to this insurance and finds an average savings of $399, with a standard deviation of $103.

(a) Are conditions for inference used in the lectures satisfied?

(b) What is your null hypothesis?

(c) What is your alternative hypothesis?

(d) Calculate the p-value for a one-sided hypothesis test.

(e) What is your conclusion if the test was conducted at the 95% level?

(f) Do you agree with the market researcher that the amount of savings advertised is an overestimate? Make sure you can explain your reasoning.

(g) Calculate a 90% confidence interval for the average amount of savings of all customers who switch their insurance.

(h) Do your results from the hypothesis test and the confidence interval agree? Make sure you can explain your reasoning.
