Vital signs T 103.2 F Pulse 120 Resp 22 and PaO2

99% on room air. Cardio-respiratory exam WNL with the exception of tachycardia but no murmurs, rubs, clicks, or gallops. Abdominal exam + for LLQ pain on deep palpation but no rebound or rigidity. Pelvic exam demonstrates copious foul-smelling green drainage with a reddened cervix and + bilateral adnexal tenderness. + chandelier sign. Wet prep in ER + clue cells and gram stain in ER + gram-negative diplococci.

In your Case Study Analysis related to the scenario provided, explain the following:

• The factors that affect fertility (STDs).
• Why inflammatory markers rise in STD/PID.

As for all the case studies please focus on the following elements:

A detailed explanation of the pathophysiology

Clinical manifestations due to the pathophysiology

Genetic/ethnic considerations

Use research, current sources less than 5 years, and analysis to support your answers

Choose one health-promoting behavior in which you personally could but don’t engage. Identify factors, as defined in the health promotion model, which contribute to your decision not to participate. Include immediate competing alternatives.

2. Analyze factors that contribute to your participation in a health-promoting activity and place each factor under the appropriate label from the health promotion model.

3. Consider your own philosophy of health and prepare your description of wellness. Is absence of disease more prominent than positive, active statements of health?

4. Anticipate the health-promoting behaviors important at various stages of development across the life span. What health promotion topics do you include in your practice?

research the tympanic membrane and the thyroid gland. In a Microsoft Word document of 4-5 pages formatted in APA style, address each of the following criteria.

• Two focused health assessment histories
  • One assessment related to the tympanic membrane and the other focused on the thyroid gland.
  • The assessments can be hypothetical patients or patients you have had in the past (remember HIPAA if you are describing a previous patient).
• A description of the normal and abnormal findings of the tympanic membrane.
• Information on how to examine the thyroid gland using both the anterior and posterior methods.
• A concise note in the subjective, objective, assessment (be sure to include the NANDA diagnosis as well as the medical diagnosis), and plan (SOAP) format with each patient’s encountered findings.
  • For a review of SOAP notes:
  • SOAP Documentaion
• Information about laboratory/diagnostic tests used for screening clients with tympanic membrane or thyroid gland issues.
  • Include the expected normal results for each test.

Stakeholder support is necessary for a successful project implementation. Consider your internal stakeholders, such as the facility, unit, or health care setting where the change proposal is being considered, and your external stakeholders, like an individual or group outside the health care setting. Why is their support necessary to the success of your change proposal, and how you will go about securing that support?

Work with your preceptor to perform a needs assessment of the organization and community for your practicum. Review the needs assessment to identify possible project topics. In preparation for the capstone change project proposal, compile a list of three to five possible topics for your project and submit to the assignment instructor in LoudCloud.
