Health Condition

Create a 10–12-slide PowerPoint presentation to identify medications  associated with a chosen disease or health condition, explain the  actions and side effects of the medications, and discuss any  controversies related to the medications. Explain a treatment regime,  including pharmacology, for the disease or health condition you  selected, along with how the treatment regime may affect a client’s  lifestyle.

By having a thorough understanding of pharmacology, nurses can  eliminate possible medication errors in their nursing practices. The  basic principles of pharmacology include pharmacokinetics (what the body  does to a drug) and pharmacodynamics (what a drug does to the body).  Pharmacology plays a significant role in the nursing profession, so it  is extremely important for nurses to understand the actions of the  pharmacological agents they will administer to patients in order to  intervene appropriately if necessary. 

Show Less  

Another critical skill for a nurse is the ability to apply and  evaluate evidence-based practices, principles, models, and  pharmacological guidelines and protocols commonly used in nursing  practice. Understanding how specific protocols and guidelines are  developed will aid nurses in treating patients with a multitude of  physiological and psychological conditions.

Nurses must be able to measure outcomes of pharmacological  interventions when caring for patients. The effective use of  evidence-based practice guidelines, models, and principles is one way  that nurses can analyze quality outcomes for the pharmacological  treatments used for patients.

Pharmacology includes different categories of major drugs used in  the treatment of primary diseases. The same drug may be used to treat  more than one disease or condition, while two patients with the same  disease may require different drug treatments. In addition, the  professional nurse must be aware of what types of things can influence a  patient’s response to a drug. Some things are obvious—other  medications, for example—while some are less so. Things like age,  weight, herbs—even foods people eat every day—can influence how a person  responds to a particular drug. At times, even a strong cultural belief  can influence how a drug will react. Nurses who administer drugs have a  responsibility to assess patients for both the desired response, as well  as for any unwanted and potentially harmful reactions that may occur.

Imagine your supervisor has asked you to conduct a lunch and learn  session to educate your fellow nursing staff on pharmacological  interventions.

Preparation

Select a disease or health condition that requires pharmacological  intervention. You may choose any disease or health condition you wish,  but the disease or health condition must be relevant to nurses from a  variety of settings (for example: ER, pediatrics, public health, et  cetera).

Requirements

Once you have selected a disease or health condition, create a  PowerPoint presentation you could use in your lunch and learn session,  including the following:

  • Identify the disease or health condition you have chosen, along  with the areas where nurses are likely to see it. (Do this in the agenda  slide or next slide after the agenda.)
  • Identify the three drugs used most often in the treatment of the disease or health condition.
  • Explain the types of actions, side effects, indications, and  contraindications that could be expected from the pharmacological  treatment.
  • Describe the treatment regime most often prescribed for the  disease or health condition. This should include pharmacology but not be  limited to pharmacology.
  • Explain how the treatment regime (including pharmacology) may  impact a client’s lifestyle. Consider things such as finances, ease or  complexity of administration, instructions (frequency, duration), et  cetera.
  • Describe how a nurse should monitor a client being treated for  the disease or health condition in order to obtain a quality patient  outcome.
  • Explain any controversies associated with the drugs used in the  treatment. For example, is there a black box warning with any of the  drugs?

Use the notes section of each slide to expand your points or draft  your mock oral presentation (or both) and reference your resources. Use  at least 3 peer-reviewed or professional resources to support your work  in this assessment. Be sure your PowerPoint includes a title slide, a  slide with your agenda or list of topics to be covered, and a reference  slide. Follow current APA style and formatting guidelines for your  citations and references.

Additional Requirements

  • Number of slides: 10–12, not including the title and reference slides.
  • Be creative. Consider your intended audience.

Describe the focus and foundational research of social psychology.

Question Description

Objective 4: Describe the focus and foundational research of social psychology.

Social psychology is a very interesting field; it is full of applicable and fascinating research that looks at you (and everyone else) from a slightly different perspective. Most students are spell bound by this research and application (as was the world during it’s time of release). For Christians, it’s an outstanding perspective to understanding the events leading us through Holy Week and to the cross. It also helps us understand the inspirational parable of the Good Samaritan. Consider this as you watch video clips for this assignment.

Learning Activity #6: Psychology Term Paper

  • Read Chapter 12 in your textbook.
  • Watch the following videos:
  • Soloman Asch’s conformity study (explained by Philip Zombardo)
  • Milgram’s Obedience Study (allow the Nazi concentration horrors portrayed to bring you understanding and compassion for those who suffered). This is hosted by Milgram himself and contains foreign subtitles, but is in English: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOYLCy5PVgM
  • Zimbaros’s TED talk on the Psychology of Evil:
  • This explains the bystander effect hosted by Zimbardo as well as the application of being an agent of social change: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wW2xszD-zBM
  • Write a five to seven-page double spaced (1250-1750 word) paper not including title page and reference page (no abstract require) that addresses the following:
  • Formatting, including the title and reference pages is to be APA compliant. Use the 6thedition APA template under course documents on the course home page and consult the Paper Writing rubric in your course syllabus. For additional help, access the OWL Purdue APA website, including a sample paper.
  • What is the perspective of social psychology in regards to an individual’s behavior? Discuss the three main areas in about one page (250 words).
  • Discuss the power of group influence, highlighting the research done by Asch and Milgram, in about one page (250 words).
  • Discuss in about one page (250 words), the power of roles and prejudices as seen by social psychologists, highlighting the study done by Zimbardo.
  • Discuss de-individuation, bystander intervention, and altruism in about one page (250 words). Relate these concepts to their presence online, particularly on social media.
  • Describe through the eyes of Social psychology, the events of Holy Week and the Parable of the Good Samaritan in about one page (250 words).
  • Finally, in about half a page (125 words) reflect on the topics discussed Chapter 12 and the video clips. Did anything provoke a strong reaction or epiphany? Focus on how you will apply this information to your everyday life.
  • In addition to your textbook, include two or three additional sources from the Internet. Only use websites that end in .org, .edu. or .gov so you know you are getting trust-worthy information.

PEER RESPONSE

150 WORDS NO REFERENCE REQUIRED. RESPOND TO THE POST BELOW PEER RESPONSE

 NO COMMENTS
150 words no reference required. Respond to the post below peer responseAs students it looks like there are many ways we can be actively involved. We can take part in the AANA Student Writing Contest play in the Anesthesia College Bowl serve on different committees such as 1) education 2) practice public relations and health and wellness 3) the CRNA political action committee and attend the Nurse Anesthesia Annual Congress meetings (which combines networking evidence-based education and the latest technological advances in anesthesia in a new location every year). Something that I really support is the Student Mentoring Program that’s coordinated by the AANA Communications Committee. Every year at the AANA Mid-Year Assembly a group of SRNAs get to spend a day with experienced CRNA leaders. This allows networking which I think is really important for our profession and the primary goal of this program is to mentor and produce future leaders of the AANA . Past CRNAs have worked and lobbied so hard for our profession – we wouldn’t be where we are today if it weren’t for those who have fought and advocated for us.One of our classmates mentioned in DB #3 that since physician anesthesiologists make so much money they are probably able to put a lot more money into the ASA. While that is probably true we should not let that deter us. We could donate to the AANA as much as we can even if it’s $20 and we can have fundraisers to help raise money too. The RISE Above Campaign is seeking to do what we all as students agree on and wish the public were better informed on – to prove the value and worth of CRNAs. This is a three year campaign that aims to raise $1 million to fund Health Services Research that will inform healthcare policy affecting patient care processes and patient/provider interactions (RISE Above).There is a website called The Future of Anesthesia Care Today and it is awesome. It talks about who we are what our education and training is like and why we are the most cost-effective choice when it comes to choosing an anesthesia provider. This website has numerous research studies to back up what they are recommending. It would be nice if we could somehow direct a lot of traffic to this website and maybe distribute it on social media to help with public awareness.Something that interests me personally as far as gaps in the literature goes – I wasn’t able to find any publications or abstracts on CRNAs vs dental anesthesia providers regarding patient safety and outcomes. Ialso couldn’t find much research on neonates and the OB population – I’m sure after starting clinicals next year topics will come to mind that I might want to further explore.I agree with my classmate in that it wouldn’t hurt to have more CRNA research. After looking over the AANA website it looks like much research has been done or is happening currently. But I think we need to think of better ways to help distribute that research especially to the public and to politicians. As politicians and state laws have a direct influence on how we are allowed to practice where we can practice independently and whatnot maybe we can meet with the politicians of all the non opt-out states to see where they get their influences from how they came to their decision and what we can do to convince them that we should be allowed to practice independently (I believe one of our classmates came up with this idea first courtesy of John and I support his idea). Other classmates have mentioned using social media as that is something that is very popular and a good way to help reach millions. Johnson&Johnson has a Discover Nursing Campaign with TV commercials and a website dedicated to achieving a nursing career with information on how to become a nurse NCLEX study tips job interview advice and so much more. It would be nice to have a Discover CRNA Campaign. Maybe as student CRNAs we can volunteer at local high schools and introduce our profession on a career day or go to nursing schools and talk about who we are and what we do. Our research is strong and we have a lot of it but what good is it if we only circulate it amongst ourselves? I really think we should continue to advocate for our profession be active in the AANA and help educate the public on who we are.
