Part 3: Nursing Research

Topic:  Adolescent smoking

1. Discuss the purpose of the literature review and which topics are you going to search for your topic?

Part 4: Patho

 

An adult patient with a chronic myelogenous leukemia sits down with you to discuss his questions and concerns about his upcoming bone marrow transplant. He has already received some educational materials and participated in a family conference during which health team members described the procedure and potential complications. He has been told that he has a risk of graft rejection or graft versus host disease (GVHD), but he does not understand the distinction.

1. What are the similarities between graft versus host disease and graft rejection?

2. What are the pathophysiologic differences between graft versus host disease and graft rejection?

3. How would these differences be manifested clinically?

Studies have shown a protective effect of mild to moderate GVHD in cancer patients who have had a bone marrow transplant. 

4. Based on your understanding, can you explain these findings?

Part 5: Patho

  

A 32-year-old mother is driving her 10-year-old daughter home from the store when their van is stuck by a drunk driver, causing their vehicle to careen over a bridge into the water below. The daughter’s arm is caught underneath a crumpled seat. Acting quickly, the mother is able to move the entire 400-lb seat to free her daughter’s arm and take her to safety. They are taken to a local emergency room and treated for minor injuries.

When the mother arrives to the ER, she is perplexed at how she was able to move the seat. She tells you she can barely lift 50 lb at home. 

She asks you how it was possible for her to move such a tremendous amount.

2. The woman asks you how to further explain to her “how all levels of the brain work together to perform such a complex movement”?
