Pharmacokinetics And Pharmacodynamics

As an advanced practice nurse assisting physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders, it is important to not only understand the impact of disorders on the body, but also the impact of drug treatments on the body. The relationships between drugs and the body can be described by pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Pharmacokinetics describes what the body does to the drug through absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion, whereas pharmacodynamics describes what the drug does to the body. When selecting drugs and determining dosages for patients, it is essential to consider individual patient factors that might impact the patient’s pharmacokinetic and pharamcodynamic processes. These patient factors include genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, behavior (i.e., diet, nutrition, smoking, alcohol, illicit drug abuse), and/or pathophysiological changes due to disease. In this Discussion, you reflect on a case from your past clinical experiences and consider how a particular patient’s pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes altered his or her response to a drug.

To prepare:

· Review this week’s media presentation with Dr. Terry Buttaro, as well as Chapter 2 of the Arcangelo and Peterson text, and the Scott article in the Learning Resources. Consider the principles of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.

· Reflect on your experiences, observations, and/or clinical practices from the last five years. Select a case from the last five years that involves a patient whose individual differences in pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic factors altered his or her anticipated response to a drug. When referring to your patient, make sure to use a pseudonym or other false form of identification. This is to ensure the privacy and protection of the patient.

· Consider factors that might have influenced the patient’s pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes such as genetics (including pharmacogenetics), gender, ethnicity, age, behavior, and/or possible pathophysiological changes due to disease.

· Think about a personalized plan of care based on these influencing factors and patient history in your case study.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post a description of the case you selected. Then, describe factors that might have influenced pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes of the patient from the case you selected. Finally, explain details of the personalized plan of care that you would develop based on influencing factors and patient history in your case.

Strategies For Decision Making

Strategies for Decision Making – Week 2 Assignment

Constructing Deductive and Inductive Arguments

Arguments consist of premises and conclusions. Premises are structured so as to lend support to conclusions. The kind of support that a premise lends to a conclusion allows us to distinguish between deductive and inductive arguments. This week, you will be constructing both kinds of arguments.

1.  In three premises each, construct one example of each following deductive argument form:

·  Modus ponens

·  Modus tollens

·  Hypothetical syllogism

·  Disjunctive syllogism

Make sure your arguments are deductively valid and that your examples are your own. Here are two examples of the general format that your arguments should take:

Modus ponens:

1.  If it is raining, then it is pouring.

2.  It is raining.

3.  Therefore, it is pouring.

Modus tollens:

1.  If Jack went to the grocery store, then he bought cookies.

2.  Jack did not buy cookies.

3.  Therefore, Jack did not go to the grocery store.

2.  After you construct the preceding deductive argument forms, construct a three premise syllogism. For example:

1.  All men are mortal.

2.  Socrates is a man.

3.  Therefore, Socrates is mortal.

3.  After you construct a three premise syllogism, construct one of each of the following inductive argument patterns:

·  Induction by enumeration

·  Reasoning by analogy

·  Statistical induction

·  Higher-level induction

Your examples of inductive argument patterns should not be expressed in premise form. Rather, they should be informally expressed in writing. You should have one paragraph for each pattern. Be as detailed as possible.

Finally, please remember to label your arguments. This makes it easier for them to be graded. Include your name, course section, and the date at the top of your assignment document.

COM 200 Week 5 DQ 1

Ashford 6: – Week 5 – Discussion 1

 

Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Reference the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated.

 

Relationship   Disengagement

In Chapter 10 of the textbook, the authors outline two communication strategies, direct and indirect, for relationship disengagement and communicating competently through the ending of relationships.
Prepare: As you prepare to write this discussion post, take a few moments to do the following:

  • Read the writing prompt below in its      entirety. Notice that there are three      tasks:
    1. Describe two strategies for disengaging with others.
    2. Brainstorm about a time when you ended a friendship or       other relationship.
    3. Note which direct and indirect disengagement       strategies you used to end the relationship.
  • Review Chapter 10 in the text. Read about both direct      and indirect strategies for disengagement.
  • Review the grading rubric.

Reflect: Take time to reflect on how using communication for disengagement strategies can help us manage the difficulties of ending a relationship.
Write: Based on the information in Chapter 10:

  • Describe at least two direct and indirect disengagement      strategies from the book. Write at least two sentences for each element.      Try to find as many specific connections between your experience and what      Bevan and Sole cover in their discussion of both types of disengagement      strategies.
  • Explain a scenario where you’ve parted with a friend or      partner in the past.
  • How can you communicate competently when ending      relationships? Be sure to list specific disengagement strategies, direct      and/or indirect, from the book. Consider what you’ve learned in this      chapter.

Thoroughly address all three elements of this prompt by writing at least two to three sentences on each element. Use the course readings at least once to help you make your points. Consider copying and pasting these tasks into a word file and addressing each of them separately.
Your initial response should be 200-300 words in length and is due by Thursday, Day 3.
Respond to Peers: Review your classmates’ posts and try to find some common ground or expand on the students’ ideas. Use the text to improve everyone’s understanding of the importance of being mindful of how we communicate when ending a relationship. Ask questions that will enhance both of your understanding of the key concepts. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Monday, Day 7. Response posts must be 125 to 200 words in length. If you have questions about how to participate in discussions, consult “About Discussions” under the Course Home menu.

Rubric for Unit 6 Assignment

  MM570 Unit 6 Assignment Grading Rubric
Point Possible Grading Criteria
A: 153 – 170 points Student work demonstrates mastery of the objectives assessed by the Assignment. This is evidenced by at least the following:

 

·         The selection of the statistical procedure(s) is/are the most appropriate ones for answering the questions; specifically, the correct t-test is selected for each question.

·         The statistical procedure was calculated correctly using SPSS.

·         The interpretation of the SPSS output is correct and complete, including applying the Sig. (2-tailed) p-value to determine null hypothesis rejection.

·         The results of the statistical analyses are presented in easy to understand, non-statistical language that addresses the research question.

·         SPSS output that is not needed in the solution is not included. Only appropriate SPSS output are included.

·         Each step of the hypothesis testing procedure is included, including the statement of the hypothesis, inclusion of the null and alternative hypothesis Ho and Ha, results from the hypothesis t-test, and complete clearly written conclusions.

 

Your Name:

 

 

 

 

For this Project, you will use the “Statistics Class” dataset called Stat_Grades.sav, which can be found in the Doc Sharing area under the Graded Projects category. This same “Statistics Class” dataset is used for all the class projects. The Stat_Grades.sav dataset contains data collected about students in three sections of a statistics class taught by an instructor. You will also use SPSS for this project.

HINTS AND HELP

 

Note: When asked to include the interpretation of the results and final conclusions, be sure to include all results, an interpretation of the meaning of the results, and final conclusions that a common person can understand. Make sure you use complete sentences, paragraph form (single spacing), proper grammar, and correct spelling. Minimal or incomplete responses can lose points. Include any SPSS results that you use, but do not include SPSS results that are not part of your solution.

 

Hint: You are asked to determine “appropriate” tests and methods, and to make calculations. This means that you will have to determine which tests or methods are best and why.

 

Rememberto always show all of your work and each of your steps.

For each hypothesis testing question, follow the appropriate steps.

1) Write the hypothesis

2) Construct the Ho and Ha clearly and appropriately. Note the means you are comparing.

3) Run the appropriate SPSS test and include the appropriate results

4) Explain and evaluate the SPSS results

5) Write a complete and paragraph form conclusion that can be understood by a normal non-statistical person.

 

Use the Live Binder for further assistance. There is a link to the Live Binder under every Unit.

 

Place all answers, work, and graphs in this document.

Use alpha = .05 for all hypothesis testing questions.

** Please use non-directional two-tailed tests for these questions (not one-tailed tests).

 

1. Recall that the dataset, Stat_grades.sav, contains data for a sample of 105 statistics students. One of the variables in this dataset is called, gender. This variable is either “1” for “Female”, or “2” for “Male”. The Instructor is wondering if gender affects student performance as measured using Final Course Percentage (called Percent) . Using the appropriate statistical test, methods, and evaluations, determine if Gender made a significant difference in Final Exam Points. Be sure to include each step of the process, any SPSS results used, an interpretation of the results, and the final conclusions.

 

(a) What is the hypothesis being tested here?

 

 

 

(b) What are Ho and Ha?

 

 

 

(c) What is the name of the test you will run? Run the appropriate SPSS test and include the SPSS output here.

 

 

 

 

(d) What are the results of the test? What is the p-value and is it larger or smaller than the alpha value – show your work and explain the result.

 

 

 

 

(e) Write a conclusion for the above in plain English so that any person could understand. What can you say about gender and its effect on overall performance?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Based on many years of past classes and experience, the Instructor for the students in the Stat_Grades.sav dataset has determined that a successful mean value for the Quiz 5 is 8.5 points. Does the Quiz 5 for the students in Stat_Grades.sav differ significantly from the known success value of 8.5 points? Use and include the appropriate statistical test, methods, and evaluations. Be sure to include each step of the process, any SPSS results used, an interpretation of the results, and final conclusions.

 

 

 

(a) What is the hypothesis being tested here?

 

 

 

(b) What are Ho and Ha?

 

 

 

(c) What is the name of the test you will run? Run the appropriate SPSS test and include the SPSS output here.

 

 

 

(d) What are the results of the test? What is the p-value? Compare the p value to alpha and note the result.

 

 

 

(e) Explain the conclusion in plain English so that any person could understand. Did the students in Stat_Grades.sav do significantly differently than the given population mean? How did they do and what did you find. Explain.

 

 

 

 

 

3. Using the Stat_Grades.sav dataset, compare Quiz 4 and Quiz 5 and determine if there is a statistically significant difference in the average student performance between these two quizzes. Use and include the appropriate statistical test, methods, and evaluations. Be sure to include each step of the process, any SPSS results used, an interpretation of the results, and final conclusions.

 

(a) What is the hypothesis being tested here?

 

 

(b) What are Ho and Ha?

(d) What are the results of the test? What is the p-value? Compare the p value to alpha and note the result.

 

 

(e) Explain the result and conclusion of the test in plain English so that any person could understand.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. Use the following SPSS output to answer these questions. The hypothesis here is: “Is there a significant difference in Total Points between the two gender groups?”

 

 

 

(a) What is Ho and Ha?

 

 

(b) What t-test is being used?

 

 

(c) What is the p value? (Assume equal variances)

 

 

(d) Using alpha at .05, what is the result of this test?

 

 

(e) Write the full conclusion for this test in plain English for normal people.

 

 

(f) How many males are in this sample of data? Is the mean points for males different than for females? Is it significantly different? What does it mean to be significantly different (versus just different)?

Please Answer Base In This Answer In APA Format .Write At Least 250 Words , Please Answer The Comments By Number And List Your Answers Please, Thank You

1-I have never heard of sand beds but I do have experience with low air loss (LAL) mattresses. LAL mattresses continually blow out air to alternate pressure on different areas and relieve pressure or friction on bony areas from firm surfaces as if they are floating and has proven effective is preventing pressure sores. I have noticed it’s effectiveness on long-term residents who are unable to turn themselves and are in the same position for long periods of time.

The same goes for my experience with flotech cushions for wheelchairs for patients who spend much of their time sitting in them.

It is so fortunate that we have medical researchers, analysts, and engineers who strive to develop such devices to decrease the risks and complications of the medically impaired.

 

2-Thinking about the ‘time out’ procedure before surgery, it is obvious that evidence-based practice is beneficial to the patients and all concerned in their care. most especially nurses. One can imagine how many law suits must have came out of cutting wrong legs or operating on wrong organs and how emotionally painful it would have been for both parties.

 

3-Being a school nurse is a very under-appreciated niche of the nursing profession.  I know several people who work as school nurses and they often tell me their stories.  Sometimes, they are the only healthcare that a child has, knowing that any recommendation made to the parent won’t be followed.  School nurses also track immunization records and provide statistical information to their State.  There are children out there that really rely on the school nurse, much like they rely on school lunch.  It’s really great that you are there for all of the children, giving them the best that you have to give.

Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality [AHRQ]. (2014). Guide to clinical preventive services. Retrieved from https://www.ahrq.gov/professionals/clinicians-providers/guidelines-recommendations/guide/index.html

An initiative is a project, an event, so something in the community is ideal. Workplace location for employees is fine too. Please include the following suggested level one headings so content is clear and easily identified.

Reason for screening topic is explained in detail.

Screening population is identified.

Detailed explanation is provided on how each outcome is affected by their screening process selection. Rationale for their explanation is provided.

Setting for screening is provided.

Cost for screening is provided

Conceptual Model

Choose a conceptual model that you think might work for your initiative and explain the model here. Appendix 2 in the document at the link below will help you understand community approaches. Appendix 3 in this same document will help you with conceptual model selection. Note: This project is about screening, not physical activity evaluation. Use the appendix as a resource for models:

Physical Activity Evaluation Handbook. (2002). Retrieved from https://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/physical/handbook/pdf/handbook.pdf

You may choose to independently research your model to help you explain its application to your initiative. If you have found another model you will like to use, not listed, contact your instructor.

Screening Purpose

Discuss why it is important to screen for this condition. This is where you address your community assessment and the reason for this need in your community/ population choice. Support your stance with statistics and information, ideally related to the location and population.

Population

Clearly address the demographics that are being screened; where they live, state, county, ages, races included etc.

Screening Activity

This section is what you are doing at the screening and should completely align with the screening guideline above for the condition. Also all health promotion screenings include some brief prevention education component.

Outcome Goals

Bullet a few specific goals here. What do you hope to accomplish with your screening?

Location

Briefly explain where you are doing this. It should be very specific. Senior Citizen Center in Monroe Co on Saturday. Local church- name, malls, fair etc. Think about what facility type, area you will need. Add comments on why this location meets the needs of your target population and screening choice.

Cost

This is the cost for you to develop and conduct the initiative. It is best displayed as a brief Word table showing what it costs you do develop and conduct the screening; paper, equipment, rental s etc. Volunteers are fine, but everything is not free. Students must demonstrate they can develop a cost estimate for screenings that is realistic and takes into account financials. If there is a cost for the attendees that should go here as well.

Summary

Provide a summary of your screening, general benefit to the community and why it is important.

This should be a 4 page paper, excluding title page, and references. A person should be able to read your paper and understand fully what you are screening, where, when, the costs and how it is supported in the guideline. Ideally a person would be able to duplicate your screening initiative, based on the clarity you present. This paper should adhere to appropriate 6th edition APA format. A minimum of 3-4 sources should be used.
