    **Description**

    Over the duration of this course,
    **you will submit a scholarly PowerPoint “Health Promotion Program Proposal,”**

    **addressing existing nursing knowledge related to health promotion and a written proposal.**

    In the written proposal, you will also develop a health promotion program to meet the health needs of a vulnerable

    population in your potential concentration area or community. The PowerPoint portion is your presentation of that proposal.

    The proposal must demonstrate graduate school-level writing and critical analysis. The final version of

    your proposal is due in week 8.

    For this assignment you will submit
    **Part One** of your proposal, detailing a health problem that is

    prevalent within
    **your selected group** and demonstrating your
    **research of health promotion strategies for**

    **addressing this specific health problem**. At this point, you already developed in your discussions the core ideas of the topic contained in this assignment. You will use the same information, but it won’t be a copy-and-paste exercise. The purpose is that you enhance your ideas with the comments and outcomes of the weekly discussions and previous evaluations.

    Directions

    1. Introduction. Describe the health problem. Don't type "Introduction".  (1 paragraph at least).

    Using data and statistics, support your claim that the issue you selected is a problem.

    What specifically will you address in your proposed health promotion program?

    Be sure your proposed outcome is realistic and measurable.

    **Reducing Drug Overdose Deaths Worldwide**

    **Reducing Drug Overdose Deaths Worldwide**

    Overdose deaths from drug use are a public health crisis for individuals, families, and communities around the world. Deaths from opioids such as fentanyl cause surges in healthcare and law enforcement and have catastrophic social and economic consequences. Because drug use disorder often co-occurs with mental health disorders, prevention and treatment are challenging. Stigma and lack of access to medical care worsen the crisis. Despite efforts to stem the epidemic, overdoses remain on the rise in number. This paper addresses the global, national, and regional impacts of drug overdoses with a focus on Maryland and reduction methods.

    Globally, drug overdose mortality has surged to alarming levels. According to World Health Organization estimates, approximately 0.6 million people lose their lives every year due to drug-related conditions, including overdosing and drug-related illness, almost 80% due to opioids and approximately 20% due to opioid overdosing (World Health Organization, 2023). The most devastating crisis has been caused by opioids, with synthetic opioids such as fentanyl causing an acute rise in mortality. Most countries have inadequate facilities for treating addiction and have no access to mental health care and harm reduction services. In low- and middle-income countries, access to addiction services and medications, including methadone and buprenorphine, remains very low availability. On the other hand, stigma towards drug use deters most individuals from seeking care. With drug markets evolving and emerging substances on the horizon, international cooperation has become increasingly important in the fight against the epidemic of overdosing.

    Record numbers of drug-related overdose deaths have been recorded in the United States. Over 100,000 people died as a result of drug overdoses, and the most common cause was opioids (Zibbell et al., 2023). Synthetic opioids, and most prominently fentanyl, have been a leading cause and have contributed to nearly much of overdose deaths. Both rural and urban communities have experienced the brunt of the consequences, and gaps in care accessibility have been visible in both contexts. Friedman et al. (2024) argued that socioeconomic and ethnic differences have compounded the issue of overdosing, which stems from the inability of vulnerable populations to access informational and rehabilitative resources. The United States government has sought to address the epidemic by liberalizing access to naloxone to combat opioid overdose, increasing financing for mental health and substance use disorder, and adopting harm reduction approaches including, but not limited to, syringe exchanges and supervised injection facilities. However, these approaches, while beneficial, do not fully address the root causes of the crisis and may not be sufficient to mitigate the depth of the problem.

    The case of overdosing has had devastating effects on communities like Maryland. In the state, drug-related overdose deaths have been increasing for the last few years. Over 2000 drug-related overdose deaths happened in that state (Schendl et al., 2022). Most of the deaths were by fecal and other opioids. In response to the problem, law enforcement agencies are now involved not only in enforcement but also in prevention and intervention; medical providers and community-based organizations have begun programs aimed at preventing and improving access to treatment for overdose. Some communities have started local harm reduction programs, such as supervised consumption sites, aimed at reducing overdose deaths and the spread of infectious diseases. However, there is still opposition in the form of insufficient funding, anti-harm reduction policy sentiment, and other obstacles to mental health care. Improving community-based approaches and improving the coordination of health services among different levels of health care is essential to reducing the number of overdose deaths in the state.

    To conclude, global, national, and local-based action needs to make up a varied approach to deal effectively with the drug overdose crisis. The optimal response should include public health campaigns that improve access to treatment services and various harm reduction policies that feature strategies, including supervised consumption sites. In this way, more people will seek treatment when the public gains awareness about addiction and stigma. Furthermore, the money dedicated to mental health policies must also become a top priority as resources should enhance community infrastructure. At the same time, life-saving services should receive equal access across all areas. Therefore, with evidence-based practices and sectoral coordination, a solution to lower drug-related overdose deaths can be found. This solution should not be a one-size-fits-all approach, but rather a comprehensive and coordinated effort that addresses the unique needs of each community, leading to better public health results.

    **Reducing Drug Overdose Deaths Worldwide**

    Overdose deaths from drug use are a public health crisis for individuals, families, and communities around the world. Deaths from opioids such as fentanyl cause surges in healthcare and law enforcement and have catastrophic social and economic consequences. Because drug use disorder often co-occurs with mental health disorders, prevention and treatment are challenging. Stigma and lack of access to medical care worsen the crisis. Despite efforts to stem the epidemic, overdoses remain on the rise in number. This paper addresses the global, national, and regional impacts of drug overdoses with a focus on Maryland and reduction methods.

    Globally, drug overdose mortality has surged to alarming levels. According to World Health Organization estimates, approximately 0.6 million people lose their lives every year due to drug-related conditions, including overdosing and drug-related illness, almost 80% due to opioids and approximately 20% due to opioid overdosing (World Health Organization, 2023). The most devastating crisis has been caused by opioids, with synthetic opioids such as fentanyl causing an acute rise in mortality. Most countries have inadequate facilities for treating addiction and have no access to mental health care and harm reduction services. In low- and middle-income countries, access to addiction services and medications, including methadone and buprenorphine, remains very low availability. On the other hand, stigma towards drug use deters most individuals from seeking care. With drug markets evolving and emerging substances on the horizon, international cooperation has become increasingly important in the fight against the epidemic of overdosing.

    Record numbers of drug-related overdose deaths have been recorded in the United States. Over 100,000 people died as a result of drug overdoses, and the most common cause was opioids (Zibbell et al., 2023). Synthetic opioids, and most prominently fentanyl, have been a leading cause and have contributed to nearly much of overdose deaths. Both rural and urban communities have experienced the brunt of the consequences, and gaps in care accessibility have been visible in both contexts. Friedman et al. (2024) argued that socioeconomic and ethnic differences have compounded the issue of overdosing, which stems from the inability of vulnerable populations to access informational and rehabilitative resources. The United States government has sought to address the epidemic by liberalizing access to naloxone to combat opioid overdose, increasing financing for mental health and substance use disorder, and adopting harm reduction approaches including, but not limited to, syringe exchanges and supervised injection facilities. However, these approaches, while beneficial, do not fully address the root causes of the crisis and may not be sufficient to mitigate the depth of the problem.

    The case of overdosing has had devastating effects on communities like Maryland. In the state, drug-related overdose deaths have been increasing for the last few years. Over 2000 drug-related overdose deaths happened in that state (Schendl et al., 2022). Most of the deaths were by fecal and other opioids. In response to the problem, law enforcement agencies are now involved not only in enforcement but also in prevention and intervention; medical providers and community-based organizations have begun programs aimed at preventing and improving access to treatment for overdose. Some communities have started local harm reduction programs, such as supervised consumption sites, aimed at reducing overdose deaths and the spread of infectious diseases. However, there is still opposition in the form of insufficient funding, anti-harm reduction policy sentiment, and other obstacles to mental health care. Improving community-based approaches and improving the coordination of health services among different levels of health care is essential to reducing the number of overdose deaths in the state.

    To conclude, global, national, and local-based action needs to make up a varied approach to deal effectively with the drug overdose crisis. The optimal response should include public health campaigns that improve access to treatment services and various harm reduction policies that feature strategies, including supervised consumption sites. In this way, more people will seek treatment when the public gains awareness about addiction and stigma. Furthermore, the money dedicated to mental health policies must also become a top priority as resources should enhance community infrastructure. At the same time, life-saving services should receive equal access across all areas. Therefore, with evidence-based practices and sectoral coordination, a solution to lower drug-related overdose deaths can be found. This solution should not be a one-size-fits-all approach, but rather a comprehensive and coordinated effort that addresses the unique needs of each community, leading to better public health results.

    **Mental Disorders**

    Professor: Nora Hernandez Pupo

    March 15, 2025

    **Mental Disorders**

    Mental illnesses are a significant public health issue for millions of individuals around the world. These illnesses, characterized by disruptions of cognition, emotional functioning, or behavior, have serious impacts on the health and lifestyle of the affected. Mental illnesses range from depression and anxiety to bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, and all of them have a tremendous burden on health systems, societies, and individuals. Prevention and intervention are effective for mental illnesses, but access remains a significant issue. This paper addresses the global, country-level, and local burden of mental illnesses with evidence from statistics and highlights the call for integrated health promotion strategies.

    **International Significance**

    Mental illness is a global health issue with about one in every eight individuals suffering from it, and it totals about 970 million people as of 2019. An anxiety disorder affects 301 million individuals, and depression affects 280 million individuals (World Health Organization, 2022). It has escalated with a 26% increase in anxiety disorders and a 28% rise in major depressive disorders in one year. Schizophrenia affects about 24 million individuals, with affected individuals losing 10-20 years of their life expectancy as compared to the general population. Bipolar disorder affects about 40 million individuals, with affected individuals experiencing severe mood disturbances (World Health Organization, 2024). Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is prevalent in areas of armed conflict, while eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa afflict 14 million individuals globally. With the availability of psychological and pharmacological interventions for mental illness, many affected individuals experience discrimination, stigma, and lack of access to appropriate care. Healthcare systems around the world are under-resourced, with tremendous gaps in the provision of care.

    **National Significance**

    Mental illnesses are a critical American public health issue. About one in five U.S. adults (about 57.8 million) experiences a mental illness every year, NIMH reports. Further, 40 million American adults experience anxiety disorders, and the most common is major depressive disorder. It impacts over 21 million adults and causes significant disability and lost productivity (National Institute of Mental Health, 2023). Roughly 2.8% of U.S. adults experience bipolar disorder, and about 1% experience schizophrenia (National Institute of Mental Health, 2022). PTSD is also common among veterans, impacting around 7% of the U.S. population at some time. Mental illness costs the United States economy about $300 billion each year in the form of lost productivity, healthcare costs, and disability payments. Despite advances in mental healthcare, disparities persist among racial and ethnic minorities, the uninsured, and individuals with lower socioeconomic status. Suicide, as a consequence of untreated mental illness, is a top killer in the U.S., with more than 48,000 recorded in 2021.

    **Local relevance**

    At the local level, mental health disparities remain prevalent throughout communities. In Florida, with 2.9 million adults suffering from mental illness, 39% of them are receiving care, with significant barriers to care being reported (Clark, 2024). It is one of the lowest states for per-capita mental health funding, making issues of access to necessary services even more complicated. Hispanic and Black populations in Florida have greater rates of mental health issues but fewer mental health services due to financial challenges, stigma, and language barriers. Youth mental health issues are also increasing with suicide as the second most common cause of death for ages 10-24 in the state. Local initiatives such as school-based mental health programs and community outreach programs are trying to meet the gap in mental health services. Disparities remain, with greater investment in mental health infrastructure and awareness campaigns being necessary to promote early intervention and treatment.

    **Justification for Health Promotion Strategies**

    Mental illness is a significant global burden, and hence, comprehensive health promotion is necessary. Mental health promotion has to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and improve access to evidence-based treatment. International organizations like the WHO encourage the integration of mental health services into primary care for equal access. Parity for mental health must be addressed through policy, more funding for mental health treatment is necessary, and community-based care needs to be promoted. At the local level, there must be more school mental health expansion, more outreach to underserved communities, and broader funding for telehealth. Disparities in mental health can be eliminated to enhance well-being, decrease the mental illness burden, and help people with mental disorders.

    **Mental Disorders**

    Mental illnesses are a significant public health issue for millions of individuals around the world. These illnesses, characterized by disruptions of cognition, emotional functioning, or behavior, have serious impacts on the health and lifestyle of the affected. Mental illnesses range from depression and anxiety to bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, and all of them have a tremendous burden on health systems, societies, and individuals. Prevention and intervention are effective for mental illnesses, but access remains a significant issue. This paper addresses the global, country-level, and local burden of mental illnesses with evidence from statistics and highlights the call for integrated health promotion strategies.

    **International Significance**

    Mental illness is a global health issue with about one in every eight individuals suffering from it, and it totals about 970 million people as of 2019. An anxiety disorder affects 301 million individuals, and depression affects 280 million individuals (World Health Organization, 2022). It has escalated with a 26% increase in anxiety disorders and a 28% rise in major depressive disorders in one year. Schizophrenia affects about 24 million individuals, with affected individuals losing 10-20 years of their life expectancy as compared to the general population. Bipolar disorder affects about 40 million individuals, with affected individuals experiencing severe mood disturbances (World Health Organization, 2024). Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is prevalent in areas of armed conflict, while eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa afflict 14 million individuals globally. With the availability of psychological and pharmacological interventions for mental illness, many affected individuals experience discrimination, stigma, and lack of access to appropriate care. Healthcare systems around the world are under-resourced, with tremendous gaps in the provision of care.

    **National Significance**

    Mental illnesses are a critical American public health issue. About one in five U.S. adults (about 57.8 million) experiences a mental illness every year, NIMH reports. Further, 40 million American adults experience anxiety disorders, and the most common is major depressive disorder. It impacts over 21 million adults and causes significant disability and lost productivity (National Institute of Mental Health, 2023). Roughly 2.8% of U.S. adults experience bipolar disorder, and about 1% experience schizophrenia (National Institute of Mental Health, 2022). PTSD is also common among veterans, impacting around 7% of the U.S. population at some time. Mental illness costs the United States economy about $300 billion each year in the form of lost productivity, healthcare costs, and disability payments. Despite advances in mental healthcare, disparities persist among racial and ethnic minorities, the uninsured, and individuals with lower socioeconomic status. Suicide, as a consequence of untreated mental illness, is a top killer in the U.S., with more than 48,000 recorded in 2021.

    **Local relevance**

    At the local level, mental health disparities remain prevalent throughout communities. In Florida, with 2.9 million adults suffering from mental illness, 39% of them are receiving care, with significant barriers to care being reported (Clark, 2024). It is one of the lowest states for per-capita mental health funding, making issues of access to necessary services even more complicated.

    Windshield Survey: A Community Assessment Strategy

    **Assignment 1: Clinical Activity** Windshield Survey

    Background:

    · Students will be conducting a windshield survey of a chosen community. The student will drive and walk as appropriate thorough the community.

    · You may drive, walk, or take public transportation to move about your community to make systematic observations that will help you understand more about the characteristics and health status of the community.

    During the tour, the student should look for and consider the following:

    · Who are the people in this community? In other words, who do you see? Consider age, ethnicity, and family types.

    · How do people travel and get around in this community? Do they use a car, train/bus (public transportation), bike, or walk? Horse and buggy? Are there safe biking/walking paths?

    · What sorts of businesses and places of employment are in this community? What sorts of jobs are available?

    · What types of signs are visible (e.g., political, homes for sale, advertisements, graffiti, handmade or professional signs)?

    · Where do people get their groceries? What types of restaurants are available? Where do people shop? Chain stores? Locally owned stores?

    COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING DIAGNOSIS

    1. COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING DIAGNOSIS Individual, Family, and Community Diagnoses

    2. NURSING PROCESS Source: www.allnurses.com

    3. INTRODUCTION • Creating nursing diagnoses requires the application of detailed assessment skills, critical thinking, and decision making. The formulation of nursing diagnoses is related to competency in diagnostic reasoning.

    5. DEFINITIONS A diagnosis is a that synthesizes (brings together) assessment It is a label that situation (or state) and implies an etiology (reason) and gives evidence to support the inference.

    6. NANDA-I • The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) defines nursing diagnosis as a clinical judgment about individual, community or family responses to community to actual or potential health problems or life processes.

    7. FAMILY A family nursing diagnosis is an extension of a diagnosis to the family system and/or subsystems is the outcome of family assessment. It includes or potential health problems. Diagnoses statement: Single diagnosis (no etiology included BUT adding family member who had problems)

    8. COMMUNITY A community diagnosis in that it is focused on an aggregate or a community (rather than an individual). It requires a multidisciplinary action to address or treat, multiple determinants must considered when planning interventions. Outcomes of action may not be visible for long time

    9. WELLNESS DIAGNOSIS Characteristics: • Sometimes called positive or health oriented diagnoses. • Focus is on an individual, family, community or aggregate. • There is usually a desire for a higher level of wellness. • Sometimes an effective program or status is present and there is a desire to improve the functioning. • Usually require multidisciplinary action to address or enhance. • Multiple determinants must be considered when planning interventions. • Outcomes/ actions may not be visible in the short term. • Focus is on existing or potential individual/family/community strengths.

    10. WELLNESS DIAGNOSIS: Nurse’s Role in Wellness Diagnoses: • The role of the nurse is basically to facilitate healthy responses in order to reach a higher level of health oriented goals. There is a progression from one level of wellness to a higher level of wellness. For example, the nurse can help clients to complete transitions, to achieve higher levels of wellness or to attain wellness status. • Health promotion plays a significant role.

    11. COMMUNITY DIAGNOSIS IN NANDA -I • Commonly located at Domain 1 (Health promotion), but could be at other Domains • Commonly labelled as : – Deficient community health (D1, C2) – Readiness for enhanced health management (D1, C2) (NANDA International, Inc. Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions & Classification 2015–2017, Tenth Edition)

    12. DEFICIENT COMMUNITY HEALTH •Definition Presence of one or more health problems or factors that deter wellness or increase the risk of health problems experienced by an aggregate.

    13. DEFICIENT COMMUNITY HEALTH Defining Characteristics ■ Health problem experienced by aggregates or populations ■ Program unavailable to eliminate health problem(s) of an aggregate or population ■ Program unavailable to enhance wellness of an aggregate or population ■ Program unavailable to prevent health problem(s) of an aggregate or population • Program unavailable to reduce health problem(s) of an aggregate or population • ■ Risk of hospitalization experienced by aggregates or population • ■ Risk of physiological states experienced by aggregates or populations • ■ Risk of psychological states experienced by aggregates or population

    14. DEFICIENT COMMUNITY HEALTH Related Factors ■ Inadequate consumer satisfaction with program ■ Inadequate program budget ■ Inadequate program evaluation plan ■ Inadequate program outcome data ■ Inadequate social support for program • Insufficient access to healthcare provider • ■ Insufficient community experts • ■ Insufficient resources (e.g., financial, social, knowledge) • ■ Program incompletely addresses health problem

    15. READINESS FOR ENHANCED HEALTH MANAGEMENT •Definition A pattern of regulating and integrating into daily living a therapeutic regimen for the treatment of illness and its sequelae, which can be strengthened.

    16. READINESS FOR ENHANCED HEALTH MANAGEMENT Defining Characteristics ■ Expresses desire to enhance choices of daily living for meeting goals ■ Expresses desire to enhance management of illness ■ Expresses desire to enhance management of prescribed regimens • Expresses desire to enhance management of risk factors • ■ Expresses desire to enhance management of symptoms ■ Expresses desire to enhance immunization/vaccination status

    17. COMMUNITY 4 PARTS OF COMMUNITY DIAGNOSIS; 1. a description of the problem, response, or state (risk, concern, issue, potential or actual), 2. a statement of the aggregate, population, community, or focus (boundaries). THIS DIFFERS FROM THE NURSING DIAGNOSIS, the focus is added 3. an identification of factors etiologically related to the problem ( factors), and 4. those signs and symptoms (manifestations) that are characteristic of the problem. EXAMPLE: deficient community health among children aged 0-5 y.o in the area of Village A related to Insufficient access to healthcare provider as evidenced by Health problem experienced by children (malnutrition, etc), Program unavailable to eliminate health problem(s) of an aggregate or population (Ex: no health education)

    18. COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING : PLANNING

    19. PLANNING Prioritize the community- health conditions and problems Define objectives and goals Develop the intervention plan Define persons, time, place, method, tools

    20. CRITERIA TO ESTABLISH PRIORITIES OF CHN NURSING DIAGNOSES • Appropriateness to the community health nursing role • Prevalence of the risk in the community • Severity of the risk • Potential for risk reduction • The level of the community's interest in reduction of the risk • Availability of appropriate resources (personnel, money, equipment, space, time, etc.). Muecke, M. A. (1984). Community health diagnosis in nursing. Public Health Nursing,1(1), 31.

    21. DEFINE OBJECTIVES AND GOALS • Formulate expected outcomes : c – onditions to be observed to show problem is prevented, controlled, resolved or eliminated  knowledge, behavior, status (signs & symptoms) • Individuals / families/ community responses or behaviors • Specific, measurable, community centered

    22. DEVELOP INTERVENTION PLAN Categories of the intervention scheme: Primary preventions • Health teaching, guidance and counseling (assistance with decision making and problem solving) Secondary preventions • Treatments and procedures (decreasing and alleviating sign and symptoms) Tertiary preventions • Case management (coordination, advocacy and referral) Independent or collaborative intervention

    Instructions: After reading about the implementation of the nursing process at the community

    level in Chapter 17, you will complete a community assessment and plan of care. This

    assignment is designed to give you an opportunity to participate in the assessment of a whole

    community. Data gathered will be used to determine the health status of the selected

    community and to formulate community health nursing diagnoses. You will propose (you will

    not actually be implementing these interventions) nursing interventions for primary, secondary,

    and tertiary levels of prevention to improve or maintain the health of the selected community.

    You will submit a paper with your data findings and plan of care for the community.

    The steps of a community assessment are:

    1. Data Collection

    2. Problem Clarification

    3. Analysis of Problem

    4. Resource Identification

    5. Resource Utilization

    6. Action Plan (Community Nursing Care Plan)

    Using the nursing process, the student will:

    1. Select appropriate data sources to assess a selected community.

    2. Identify factors that promote wellness and factors that are detrimental to the health of

    a community.

    3. Interpret data collected for the community assessment to determine the health status of

    a community.

    4. Formulate nursing diagnoses that reflect assets and liabilities of the community. 5.

    Identify the role of the community health nurse in improving the health status of the

    community.

    6. Communicate effectively with key people in the selected community to obtain required

    data.

    7. Demonstrate accountability for professional practice as a team member in conducting a

    community assessment.

    8. Formulate goals and nursing interventions that could improve the health of the selected

    community, using primary, secondary and tertiary levels of prevention.

    9. Evaluate outcomes based on goals and interventions.
    GENERAL TOOLS TO USE FOR DATA COLLECTION:

    1. Windshield Survey

    2. Existing data sources (national, state and local: see Sources for Data below)

    3. Surveys – sample a specific population to get opinions

    WINDSHEILD SURVEY:

    The best initial step in assessing a community is to walk or drive around the community, looking
    at physical or environmental characteristics of the community. The next step is to conduct
    research regarding your chosen community (see Sources for Data Collection below). There will
    be a lot of information to cypher through; here are some suggested categories to help organize
    your data:

    · Physical/Environmental

    COMMUNITY-ORIENTED NURSING DIAGNOSES

    The development of the community-oriented nursing diagnosis helps to clarify the

    problem and is an important first step in planning. Community diagnoses clarify who

    receives the care, identifies problems faced by whoever is getting the care, as well as

    identifies factors that contribute to the problem.

    A three-part approach to the community-oriented nursing diagnosis is suggested:

    1. Identify the problem faced by the community and the members of the community

    (among/in)

    2. Identify factors that contribute to the problem (related to)

    3. Supporting data that document the problem (as evidenced by)

    EXAMPLES OF COMMUNITY PROBLEMS THAT COULD BE USED IN FORMULATING
    NURSING DIAGNOSES:

    · Inaccessible or unavailable services

    · Mortality and morbidity rates

    · Communicable disease rates

    · Specific populations at risk for physical or emotional problems

    · Health promotion needs for specific populations

    · Community dysfunction

    · Environmental hazards
    EXAMPLES OF COMMUNITY-FOCUSED NURSING DIAGNOSES:

    1. Increased rates of infant mortality among young mothers in Enid related to a higher

    level of teenage pregnancies and a lack of prenatal care in this aggregate as evidenced by

    infant mortality rates above the national average.

    2. Increased incidence of respiratory diseases among citizens in Buffalo related to

    increased air pollution compared to national standards as evidenced by high rates of

    asthma.

    Windshield Survey: A Community Assessment Strategy

    **Assignment 1: Clinical Activity** Windshield Survey

    Background:

    · Students will be conducting a windshield survey of a chosen community. The student will drive and walk as appropriate thorough the community.

    · You may drive, walk, or take public transportation to move about your community to make systematic observations that will help you understand more about the characteristics and health status of the community.

    During the tour, the student should look for and consider the following:

    · Who are the people in this community? In other words, who do you see? Consider age, ethnicity, and family types.

    · How do people travel and get around in this community? Do they use a car, train/bus (public transportation), bike, or walk? Horse and buggy? Are there safe biking/walking paths?

    · What sorts of businesses and places of employment are in this community? What sorts of jobs are available?

    · What types of signs are visible (e.g., political, homes for sale, advertisements, graffiti, handmade or professional signs)?

    · Where do people get their groceries? What types of restaurants are available? Where do people shop? Chain stores? Locally owned stores?

    · What types of organizations provide services for children and families (e.g., schools, churches/places of worship, youth centers, day cares, Head Start programs, libraries, places of higher education)?

    · What types of housing is available in this community? Describe the housing conditions.

    · What healthcare services and resources are available in this community? Full-service clinics? Retail clinics? Specialty clinics? Hospitals? Dental services? CAM (complementary alternative medicine)/CAT (complementary alternative therapy)?

    · Look for the recreation and exercise opportunities in this community? Are there parks/green space/playgrounds? To what extent are these areas maintained?

    · As you traverse through Knox County, consider the community’s assets and factors that impact the overall health of this community and its members. What characteristic(s) are the most influential to the PHN who works within this community?

    · Construction – roads, housing, commercial.

    · You should take ever opportunity to interact with the citizens of Knox County. Stop at local stores. Buy your lunch and or a cup of coffee at small out of the way places.

    **Assignment 2:** Develop a way to record and organize the data discovered during your Windshield Survey using the information from Assignment #1 as your guide. You will use this data to create a paper in which you will discuss the data discovered and contrast the data from various parts of your chosen commnity. Once you start writing your paper you may need to return to the community if you determine that your do not have adequate material to complete your paper.

    Windshield Survey: A Community Assessment Strategy

    **Assignment 1: Clinical Activity** Windshield Survey

    Background:

    · Students will be conducting a windshield survey of a chosen community. The student will drive and walk as appropriate thorough the community.

    · You may drive, walk, or take public transportation to move about your community to make systematic observations that will help you understand more about the characteristics and health status of the community.

    During the tour, the student should look for and consider the following:

    · Who are the people in this community? In other words, who do you see? Consider age, ethnicity, and family types.

    · How do people travel and get around in this community? Do they use a car, train/bus (public transportation), bike, or walk? Horse and buggy? Are there safe biking/walking paths?

    · What sorts of businesses and places of employment are in this community? What sorts of jobs are available?

    · What types of signs are visible (e.g., political, homes for sale, advertisements, graffiti, handmade or professional signs)?

    · Where do people get their groceries? What types of restaurants are available? Where do people shop? Chain stores? Locally owned stores?

    · What types of organizations provide services for children and families (e.g., schools, churches/places of worship, youth centers, day cares, Head Start programs, libraries, places of higher education)?

    · What types of housing is available in this community? Describe the housing conditions.

    · What healthcare services and resources are available in this community? Full-service clinics? Retail clinics? Specialty clinics? Hospitals? Dental services? CAM (complementary alternative medicine)/CAT (complementary alternative therapy)?

    · Look for the recreation and exercise opportunities in this community? Are there parks/green space/playgrounds? To what extent are these areas maintained?

    · As you traverse through Knox County, consider the community’s assets and factors that impact the overall health of this community and its members. What characteristic(s) are the most influential to the PHN who works within this community?

    · Construction – roads, housing, commercial.

    · You should take ever opportunity to interact with the citizens of Knox County. Stop at local stores. Buy your lunch and or a cup of coffee at small out of the way places.

    **Assignment 2:** Develop a way to record and organize the data discovered during your Windshield Survey using the information from Assignment #1 as your guide. You will use this data to create a paper in which you will discuss the data discovered and contrast the data from various parts of your chosen commnity. Once you start writing your paper you may need to return to the community if you determine that your do not have adequate material to complete your paper.

    COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING DIAGNOSIS

    1. COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING DIAGNOSIS Individual, Family, and Community Diagnoses

    2. NURSING PROCESS Source: www.allnurses.com

    3. INTRODUCTION • Creating nursing diagnoses requires the application of detailed assessment skills, critical thinking, and decision making. The formulation of nursing diagnoses is related to competency in diagnostic reasoning.

    5. DEFINITIONS A diagnosis is a that synthesizes (brings together) assessment It is a label that situation (or state) and implies an etiology (reason) and gives evidence to support the inference.

    6. NANDA-I • The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) defines nursing diagnosis as a clinical judgment about individual, community or family responses to community to actual or potential health problems or life processes.

    7. FAMILY A family nursing diagnosis is an extension of a diagnosis to the family system and/or subsystems is the outcome of family assessment. It includes or potential health problems. Diagnoses statement: Single diagnosis (no etiology included BUT adding family member who had problems)

    8. COMMUNITY A community diagnosis in that it is focused on an aggregate or a community (rather than an individual). It requires a multidisciplinary action to address or treat, multiple determinants must considered when planning interventions. Outcomes of action may not be visible for long time

    9. WELLNESS DIAGNOSIS Characteristics: • Sometimes called positive or health oriented diagnoses. • Focus is on an individual, family, community or aggregate. • There is usually a desire for a higher level of wellness. • Sometimes an effective program or status is present and there is a desire to improve the functioning. • Usually require multidisciplinary action to address or enhance. • Multiple determinants must be considered when planning interventions. • Outcomes/ actions may not be visible in the short term. • Focus is on existing or potential individual/family/community strengths.

    10. WELLNESS DIAGNOSIS: Nurse’s Role in Wellness Diagnoses: • The role of the nurse is basically to facilitate healthy responses in order to reach a higher level of health oriented goals. There is a progression from one level of wellness to a higher level of wellness. For example, the nurse can help clients to complete transitions, to achieve higher levels of wellness or to attain wellness status. • Health promotion plays a significant role.

    11. COMMUNITY DIAGNOSIS IN NANDA -I • Commonly located at Domain 1 (Health promotion), but could be at other Domains • Commonly labelled as : – Deficient community health (D1, C2) – Readiness for enhanced health management (D1, C2) (NANDA International, Inc. Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions & Classification 2015–2017, Tenth Edition)

    12. DEFICIENT COMMUNITY HEALTH •Definition Presence of one or more health problems or factors that deter wellness or increase the risk of health problems experienced by an aggregate.

    13. DEFICIENT COMMUNITY HEALTH Defining Characteristics ■ Health problem experienced by aggregates or populations ■ Program unavailable to eliminate health problem(s) of an aggregate or population ■ Program unavailable to enhance wellness of an aggregate or population ■ Program unavailable to prevent health problem(s) of an aggregate or population • Program unavailable to reduce health problem(s) of an aggregate or population • ■ Risk of hospitalization experienced by aggregates or population • ■ Risk of physiological states experienced by aggregates or populations • ■ Risk of psychological states experienced by aggregates or population

    14. DEFICIENT COMMUNITY HEALTH Related Factors ■ Inadequate consumer satisfaction with program ■ Inadequate program budget ■ Inadequate program evaluation plan ■ Inadequate program outcome data ■ Inadequate social support for program • Insufficient access to healthcare provider • ■ Insufficient community experts • ■ Insufficient resources (e.g., financial, social, knowledge) • ■ Program incompletely addresses health problem

    15. READINESS FOR ENHANCED HEALTH MANAGEMENT •Definition A pattern of regulating and integrating into daily living a therapeutic regimen for the treatment of illness and its sequelae, which can be strengthened.

    16. READINESS FOR ENHANCED HEALTH MANAGEMENT Defining Characteristics ■ Expresses desire to enhance choices of daily living for meeting goals ■ Expresses desire to enhance management of illness ■ Expresses desire to enhance management of prescribed regimens • Expresses desire to enhance management of risk factors • ■ Expresses desire to enhance management of symptoms ■ Expresses desire to enhance immunization/vaccination status

    17. COMMUNITY 4 PARTS OF COMMUNITY DIAGNOSIS; 1. a description of the problem, response, or state (risk, concern, issue, potential or actual), 2. a statement of the aggregate, population, community, or focus (boundaries). THIS DIFFERS FROM THE NURSING DIAGNOSIS, the focus is added 3. an identification of factors etiologically related to the problem ( factors), and 4. those signs and symptoms (manifestations) that are characteristic of the problem. EXAMPLE: deficient community health among children aged 0-5 y.o in the area of Village A related to Insufficient access to healthcare provider as evidenced by Health problem experienced by children (malnutrition, etc), Program unavailable to eliminate health problem(s) of an aggregate or population (Ex: no health education)

    18. COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING : PLANNING

    19. PLANNING Prioritize the community- health conditions and problems Define objectives and goals Develop the intervention plan Define persons, time, place, method, tools

    20. CRITERIA TO ESTABLISH PRIORITIES OF CHN NURSING DIAGNOSES • Appropriateness to the community health nursing role • Prevalence of the risk in the community • Severity of the risk • Potential for risk reduction • The level of the community's interest in reduction of the risk • Availability of appropriate resources (personnel, money, equipment, space, time, etc.). Muecke, M. A. (1984). Community health diagnosis in nursing. Public Health Nursing,1(1), 31.

    21. DEFINE OBJECTIVES AND GOALS • Formulate expected outcomes : c – onditions to be observed to show problem is prevented, controlled, resolved or eliminated  knowledge, behavior, status (signs & symptoms) • Individuals / families/ community responses or behaviors • Specific, measurable, community centered

    22. DEVELOP INTERVENTION PLAN Categories of the intervention scheme: Primary preventions • Health teaching, guidance and counseling (assistance with decision making and problem solving) Secondary preventions • Treatments and procedures (decreasing and alleviating sign and symptoms) Tertiary preventions • Case management (coordination, advocacy and referral) Independent or collaborative intervention

    Instructions: After reading about the implementation of the nursing process at the community

    level in Chapter 17, you will complete a community assessment and plan of care. This

    assignment is designed to give you an opportunity to participate in the assessment of a whole

    community. Data gathered will be used to determine the health status of the selected

    community and to formulate community health nursing diagnoses. You will propose (you will

    not actually be implementing these interventions) nursing interventions for primary, secondary,

    and tertiary levels of prevention to improve or maintain the health of the selected community.

    You will submit a paper with your data findings and plan of care for the community.

    The steps of a community assessment are:

    1. Data Collection

    2. Problem Clarification

    3. Analysis of Problem

    4. Resource Identification

    5. Resource Utilization

    6. Action Plan (Community Nursing Care Plan)

    Using the nursing process, the student will:

    1. Select appropriate data sources to assess a selected community.

    2. Identify factors that promote wellness and factors that are detrimental to the health of

    a community.

    3. Interpret data collected for the community assessment to determine the health status of

    a community.

    4. Formulate nursing diagnoses that reflect assets and liabilities of the community. 5.

    Identify the role of the community health nurse in improving the health status of the

    community.

    6. Communicate effectively with key people in the selected community to obtain required

    data.

    7. Demonstrate accountability for professional practice as a team member in conducting a

    community assessment.

    8. Formulate goals and nursing interventions that could improve the health of the selected

    community, using primary, secondary and tertiary levels of prevention.

    9. Evaluate outcomes based on goals and interventions.
    GENERAL TOOLS TO USE FOR DATA COLLECTION:

    1. Windshield Survey

    2. Existing data sources (national, state and local: see Sources for Data below)

    3. Surveys – sample a specific population to get opinions

    4. Interviews – key informants and community members and/or leaders

    5. Community forums – get input from members of the community

    WINDSHEILD SURVEY:

    The best initial step in assessing a community is to walk or drive around the community, looking
    at physical or environmental characteristics of the community. The next step is to conduct
    research regarding your chosen community (see Sources for Data Collection below). There will
    be a lot of information to cypher through; here are some suggested categories to help organize
    your data:

    · Physical/Environmental
    · Political
    · Social
    · Economic
    · Health

    A partial listing of data that should be considered is as follows:

    · Income statistics/taxes
    · Transportation services
    · Churches, stores, recreational areas
    · Air quality
    · Waste disposal systems
    · Climate

    COMMUNITY-ORIENTED NURSING DIAGNOSES

    The development of the community-oriented nursing diagnosis helps to clarify the

    problem and is an important first step in planning. Community diagnoses clarify who

    receives the care, identifies problems faced by whoever is getting the care, as well as

    identifies factors that contribute to the problem.

    A three-part approach to the community-oriented nursing diagnosis is suggested:

    1. Identify the problem faced by the community and the members of the community

    (among/in)

    2. Identify factors that contribute to the problem (related to)

    3. Supporting data that document the problem (as evidenced by)

    EXAMPLES OF COMMUNITY PROBLEMS THAT COULD BE USED IN FORMULATING
    NURSING DIAGNOSES:

    · Inaccessible or unavailable services

    · Mortality and morbidity rates

    · Communicable disease rates

    · Specific populations at risk for physical or emotional problems

    · Health promotion needs for specific populations

    · Community dysfunction

    · Environmental hazards
    EXAMPLES OF COMMUNITY-FOCUSED NURSING DIAGNOSES:

    1. Increased rates of infant mortality among young mothers in Enid related to a higher

    level of teenage pregnancies and a lack of prenatal care in this aggregate as evidenced by

    infant mortality rates above the national average.

    2. Increased incidence of respiratory diseases among citizens in Buffalo related to

    increased air pollution compared to national standards as evidenced by high rates of

    asthma.

    **Nursing Research**

    **The Significance of Nursing Research in Psychiatric Nursing**

    Psychiatric nursing research advances applied medicine by improving mental health interventions, patient care models, and treatment methodologies. Psychiatric nursing research develops evidence-based treatments for depression, schizophrenia, and anxiety through rigorous scientific study. It improves cognitive-behavioral therapy and psychopharmacology by using the newest research discoveries. This research also improves patient assessment tools, helping doctors diagnose and treat psychiatric problems. The demand for high-quality mental healthcare services is rising worldwide, especially in urban places like Miami, therefore psychiatric nursing research is crucial. This study keeps psychiatric nursing fresh and improves patient outcomes and mental health.

    Personalized treatment plans and artificial intelligence in mental health assessments are among the many possible advances in psychiatric nursing research. Neurobiological research helps comprehend mental health diseases' physiological roots, enabling more tailored pharmaceutical therapies (Washington et al., 2022). Telepsychiatry developments, accelerated by nursing research, improve mental health care access, especially for underprivileged regions. Mobile apps that give real-time mental health help and tracking are another major advancement. Research on social determinants of mental health informs policy changes and community-based mental health programs. Innovating new methods and improving present practices, psychiatric nursing research could transform mental healthcare delivery and increase quality of life for many.

    Psychiatric nursing research greatly affects patient care, healthcare, and medical knowledge. Nurses provide compassionate, customized, and scientifically sound care to mental patients using evidence-based methods. Research improves interdisciplinary teamwork as psychiatric nurses, psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers create holistic treatment plans. Mental illness stigma reduction studies affect public health campaigns and educational programs, creating a more supportive and inclusive society (Waqas et al., 2022). Psychiatric nursing research influences healthcare policies, mental health financing, and legislative reforms that assist people with psychiatric diseases. Psychiatric nursing research improves patient care and solidifies mental health nursing's place in modern healthcare systems by creating new information.

    **Research Methods and Approaches**

    To acquire comprehensive data and insights, effective psychiatric nursing research uses qualitative and quantitative methods. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) are commonly used to evaluate new psychiatric treatments, producing high-quality evidence (Harrer et al., 2023). Longitudinal cohort studies help healthcare practitioners develop preventive interventions by showing mental health issues progress over time. Phenomenological studies and in-depth interviews help researchers comprehend patient experiences and the psychological effects of mental illnesses. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses highlight psychiatric nursing research trends and gaps to guide future study. Mixed-methods research, which uses qualitative and quantitative data, brings a balanced perspective to complicated mental concerns. These different research methods keep psychiatric nursing evidence-based, patient-centered, and adaptable to new mental health issues.

    To advance the discipline, psychiatric nursing studies need to tackle numerous important themes. Worth exploring is the effect that early intervention programs have on long-term mental health, specifically with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Cultural competency studies in psychiatric nursing examine culturally sensitive interventions and how they result in patient engagement and compliance with treatment. Nonpharmacologic interventions like mindfulness-based therapy and art therapy are also studied for their therapeutic effect. Burnout and compassion fatigue in studies about psychiatric nurses could be extended to workplace well-being and retention initiatives. Another area that is worth exploring is mental care and technology, such as AI-based diagnostic systems. Current healthcare trends and evidence-based advancements could redefine psychiatric nursing practice.

    In order to appreciate the evolution in psychiatric nursing, these study questions must be relevant to the literature review. Preventive mental health treatments are supported by early intervention studies, with the benefits of early therapy demonstrated. Inclusive and patient-cantered psychiatric treatment is informed by culture competence studies, with effective treatment extended to diversified populations. Holistic and integrative mental health treatment options above medication are increased by non-pharmacologic interventions. Workforce sustainability initiatives that improve employment satisfaction and reduce staff turnover in institutions are informed by psychiatric nurse burnout studies. Technology in mental nursing studies advances clinical decision, efficacy, and accessibility. These study questions enrich the literature review and advance psychiatric nursing.

    **Guiding Questions**

    Nursing research advances mental nursing by improving diagnosis, treatment, and patient outcomes. Psychiatric nurses use the most effective and evidence-based interventions based on research. Pharmacotherapy advances based on neurobiological studies have improved symptom control for severe psychiatric patients. Research on cognitive-behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy has extended treatment choices for anxiety, depression, and trauma-related illnesses. Nursing research promotes continual learning and improvement in psychiatric nursing by carefully evaluating interventions. This commitment to research-driven practice improves patient care, boosts psychiatric nursing's credibility, and advances mental healthcare.

    Psychiatric nursing research should combine quantitative and qualitative methodologies to collect statistical and experiential data. RCTs and observational studies measure therapy efficacy, patient outcomes, and intervention success. However, qualitative research methodologies like case studies and ethnographic research reveal patient experiences, coping mechanisms, and mental reality. Mixing numerical data with patient narratives gives psychiatric nurses a more holistic view, making mixed-methods research useful. Technology like electronic health records and data analytics improves research accuracy and efficiency. Using these different research methods guarantees that psychiatric nursing research is robust, dependable, and transferable to clinical settings, increasing patient care and well-being.

    **Nursing Research**

    **The Significance of Nursing Research in Psychiatric Nursing**

    Psychiatric nursing research advances applied medicine by improving mental health interventions, patient care models, and treatment methodologies. Psychiatric nursing research develops evidence-based treatments for depression, schizophrenia, and anxiety through rigorous scientific study. It improves cognitive-behavioral therapy and psychopharmacology by using the newest research discoveries. This research also improves patient assessment tools, helping doctors diagnose and treat psychiatric problems. The demand for high-quality mental healthcare services is rising worldwide, especially in urban places like Miami, therefore psychiatric nursing research is crucial. This study keeps psychiatric nursing fresh and improves patient outcomes and mental health.

    Personalized treatment plans and artificial intelligence in mental health assessments are among the many possible advances in psychiatric nursing research. Neurobiological research helps comprehend mental health diseases' physiological roots, enabling more tailored pharmaceutical therapies (Washington et al., 2022). Telepsychiatry developments, accelerated by nursing research, improve mental health care access, especially for underprivileged regions. Mobile apps that give real-time mental health help and tracking are another major advancement. Research on social determinants of mental health informs policy changes and community-based mental health programs. Innovating new methods and improving present practices, psychiatric nursing research could transform mental healthcare delivery and increase quality of life for many.

    Psychiatric nursing research greatly affects patient care, healthcare, and medical knowledge. Nurses provide compassionate, customized, and scientifically sound care to mental patients using evidence-based methods. Research improves interdisciplinary teamwork as psychiatric nurses, psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers create holistic treatment plans. Mental illness stigma reduction studies affect public health campaigns and educational programs, creating a more supportive and inclusive society (Waqas et al., 2022). Psychiatric nursing research influences healthcare policies, mental health financing, and legislative reforms that assist people with psychiatric diseases. Psychiatric nursing research improves patient care and solidifies mental health nursing's place in modern healthcare systems by creating new information.

    **Research Methods and Approaches**

    To acquire comprehensive data and insights, effective psychiatric nursing research uses qualitative and quantitative methods. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) are commonly used to evaluate new psychiatric treatments, producing high-quality evidence (Harrer et al., 2023). Longitudinal cohort studies help healthcare practitioners develop preventive interventions by showing mental health issues progress over time. Phenomenological studies and in-depth interviews help researchers comprehend patient experiences and the psychological effects of mental illnesses. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses highlight psychiatric nursing research trends and gaps to guide future study. Mixed-methods research, which uses qualitative and quantitative data, brings a balanced perspective to complicated mental concerns. These different research methods keep psychiatric nursing evidence-based, patient-centered, and adaptable to new mental health issues.

    To advance the discipline, psychiatric nursing studies need to tackle numerous important themes. Worth exploring is the effect that early intervention programs have on long-term mental health, specifically with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Cultural competency studies in psychiatric nursing examine culturally sensitive interventions and how they result in patient engagement and compliance with treatment. Nonpharmacologic interventions like mindfulness-based therapy and art therapy are also studied for their therapeutic effect. Burnout and compassion fatigue in studies about psychiatric nurses could be extended to workplace well-being and retention initiatives. Another area that is worth exploring is mental care and technology, such as AI-based diagnostic systems. Current healthcare trends and evidence-based advancements could redefine psychiatric nursing practice.

    In order to appreciate the evolution in psychiatric nursing, these study questions must be relevant to the literature review. Preventive mental health treatments are supported by early intervention studies, with the benefits of early therapy demonstrated. Inclusive and patient-cantered psychiatric treatment is informed by culture competence studies, with effective treatment extended to diversified populations. Holistic and integrative mental health treatment options above medication are increased by non-pharmacologic interventions. Workforce sustainability initiatives that improve employment satisfaction and reduce staff turnover in institutions are informed by psychiatric nurse burnout studies. Technology in mental nursing studies advances clinical decision, efficacy, and accessibility. These study questions enrich the literature review and advance psychiatric nursing.

    **Guiding Questions**

    Nursing research advances mental nursing by improving diagnosis, treatment, and patient outcomes. Psychiatric nurses use the most effective and evidence-based interventions based on research. Pharmacotherapy advances based on neurobiological studies have improved symptom control for severe psychiatric patients. Research on cognitive-behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy has extended treatment choices for anxiety, depression, and trauma-related illnesses. Nursing research promotes continual learning and improvement in psychiatric nursing by carefully evaluating interventions. This commitment to research-driven practice improves patient care, boosts psychiatric nursing's credibility, and advances mental healthcare.

    Psychiatric nursing research should combine quantitative and qualitative methodologies to collect statistical and experiential data. RCTs and observational studies measure therapy efficacy, patient outcomes, and intervention success. However, qualitative research methodologies like case studies and ethnographic research reveal patient experiences, coping mechanisms, and mental reality. Mixing numerical data with patient narratives gives psychiatric nurses a more holistic view, making mixed-methods research useful. Technology like electronic health records and data analytics improves research accuracy and efficiency. Using these different research methods guarantees that psychiatric nursing research is robust, dependable, and transferable to clinical settings, increasing patient care and well-being.

    **Cardiovascular**

    Mr. W.G. is a 53-year-old white man who began to experience chest discomfort while playing tennis with a friend. At first, he attributed his discomfort to the heat and having had a large breakfast. Gradually, however, discomfort intensified to a crushing sensation in the sternal area and the pain seemed to spread upward into his neck and lower jaw. The nature of the pain did not seem to change with deep breathing. When Mr. G. complained of feeling nauseated and began rubbing his chest, his tennis partner was concerned that his friend was having a heart attack and called 911 on his cell phone. The patient was transported to the ED of the nearest hospital and arrived within 30 minutes of the onset of chest pain. In route to the hospital, the patient was placed on nasal cannula and an IV D5W was started. Mr. G. received aspirin (325 mg po) and 2 mg/IV morphine. He is allergic to meperidine (rash). His pain has eased slightly in the last 15 minutes but is still significant; was 9/10 in severity; now7/10. In the ED, chest pain was not relieved by 3 SL NTG tablets. He denies chills.

    **Case Study Questions**

    1. For patients at risk of developing coronary artery disease and patients diagnosed with acute myocardial infarct, describe the modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors.
    2. What would you expect to see on Mr. W.G. EKG and which findings described on the case are compatible with the acute coronary event?
    3. Having only the opportunity to choose one laboratory test to confirm the acute myocardial infarct, which would be the most specific laboratory test you would choose and why?
    4. How do you explain that Mr. W.G temperature has increased after his Myocardial Infarct, when that can be observed and for how long? Base your answer on the pathophysiology of the event.
    5. Explain to Mr. W.G. why he was experiencing pain during his Myocardial Infarct. Elaborate and support your answer.
