0 comments

  • Initial: A 72-year-old male patient was admitted yesterday with a stage III pressure ulcer on the sacrum. The wound is moderately erythemic, 2+ edema, no drainage; the patient reports no pain. Use the scenario to discuss the significance of using an ISBAR format to give an effective handoff to nursing staff
  • discuss the differences between using the ISBAR format and the PIE format for documentation
  • evaluate why a Data–Action–Response (DAR) format may or may not be effective for patient handoff.
  • Medications that effect the nervous system can be utilized to treat many different disorders and diseases, such as depression, anxiety, Parkinson’s disease and seizures. Discuss the mechanisms of action, therapeutic effects, indications, adverse and toxic effects, cautions, contraindications, drug interactions, and antidotal management of the drug Amitriptyline
  • discuss all phases of the nursing process (including patient education) for patients taking that medication.
  • discuss the barriers and interventions to medication compliance of the chosen drug.
  • In your post, please address the following
  • NOTE: I’ve attached the PICOT worksheet.
    1. Locate a study that relates to your topic and displays the results of the data in graph format. Cite the reference in APA formatting.
    2. Explain how the study relates to your PICOT question. Then describe the results of the study and what type of graph was used to show the data. Include the mean, mode, and median of the data that was analyzed- if applicable.
    3. Take one more piece of data within the study that did not have a visual aid and explain what graph you could use for that visual aid. For instance, if the researcher explained the different age ranges of the participants, you could explain how you would use a pie chart as a visual representation of what age groups were in the study. If no other data is offered in the study, choose a portion of data that could theoretically show one element of the participants, such as their ages, weights, etc. Note- You will just need to explain what graph you would use here. For the assignment in week 5, you will submit the graph in the module.”
