Answer the following questions in three well-developed paragraphs (450–500 words) using APA formatting, integrating two evidence-based resources to include clinical practice guidelines as well as the course textbook.

RR is 48-year-old Hispanic woman who comes to see you at the V. A. homeless clinic. The major complaint is a six-day history of worsening cough, productive of green sputum. There have been fever and chills with complaints of pain in the right mid-back with deep breathing or coughing. Further history reveals a history of tobacco use of one pack of cigarettes a day for 30 years. There is an incontainent health history as a result of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and homelessness. On examination, the skin is warm and clammy, pale; RR appears to not feel well; the temperature is 100.5° F; respiratory rate is 24 breaths per minute; pulse is 98 beats per minute; blood pressure is 120/75 mm Hg; and saturation of oxygen is 96 percent on room air by pulse oximetry.

Auscultation of the lungs reveals rales in the right lower-posterior lung field. The remainder of the examination is within normal limits.

  1. What organism(s) do you most suspect and why?
  2. What antibiotic would you recommend to treat RR with and why?
  3. What is the mechanism of action of this antibiotic? Provide rationale
  4. Do you have any counseling points for RR?

One professional journal I would opt in dissemination of my EBP in preventing urinary tract infection is Nursing Research Practice journal. This is a peer-reviewed Journal aimed at exploring the novel strategies in the field of patient care and Nursing. The Journal provides a complete overview of the topics in this field on an Open access platform. Also, journal covers different spectrum of subjects in the nursing including the health of the patients, quality of nursing care, nurse research training, etc. The journal is open and covers a large audience addressing a vast majority of problems experienced in healthcare today. That is especially important in addressing the impact of UTIs among inpatients and adult patients.

The healthcare conference I would consider in dissemination is the World Nursing and Health Care Conference. According to WorldNurse (2018), “this international conference provides a forum for nursing and clinicians, researchers and educators to share and celebrate experiences and achievements in nursing.” The conference would offer me a good opportunity to present my project—on prevention of urinary tract infection, at the universal scale and in front of the experts.

nutrition

 

Nutrition plays a vital role in a person’s overall health and well-being. Not getting enough of the recommended nutrients over the long-term can lead to malnutrition which often results in disease and illness.

In a 3-page paper, written in APA format using proper spelling/grammar, address the following:

  1. Define malnutrition and identify a specific disease that can result from it.
  2. Perform library research about the selected disease, and explain its physiological effects on a person’s body. 
  3. Describe the relationship between specific foods/nutrients and the disease. Use the questions below to guide your response.
    1. Does research indicate that a lack of specific foods/nutrients increase a person’s chance of contracting the disease?
    2. Are there specific foods/nutrients that should be avoided by an individual afflicted with the disease?
    3. How do specific foods/nutrients work physiologically within the body to help combat the disease?
  4. Evaluate nutritional recommendations to help combat the disease.
  5. Cite at least 3 credible references and present the resources in APA format on the References page.For information about the impact of diseases on body systems and assessing the credibility of resources, consult the resources below.
