In the family of the genogram, it appears that the tendency for a serious physical illness may be inherited. This is particularly likely, as both serious illnesses in this case are autoimmune problems, which are known to have genetic biases. There is also the possibility of a substance abuse tendency, although it has not yet shown up in the third generation. However, as the members of this generation are still young, the possibility of this happening remains. Also clear from the interactional pattern information, having a serious physical illness can result in hostile relationships with your relations whether you are close or ...

Tuorette syndrome is a condition that interferes with a person’s nervous system thereby causing tics. Tics are uncalled for movements, twitches, or sounds that individuals make distinctly from the majority. However, a person can have tics without necessarily having the Tuorette syndrome. Nevertheless, kids with Tuorette syndrome have tics. Tics have some resemblance with hiccups. People do not plan them and neither do they want them. They occur almost naturally. People always try tricks to stop hiccups, but can do nothing to stop the tics. Other tics also take the form of scratching an itch, the person does not really want ...

In the 15th century, following Christopher Columbus’ discoveries of the Americas was what we call the Columbian Exchange. This refers to the transfer of goods, ideas, and other things from the Old World (consisting of mostly eastern nations) to the New World (western nations, Americas) and vice versa. Metal and crops which were unavailable in the new and old worlds became easily accessible through this exchange, which we can consider as a very beneficial result . More modernized ideas were also introduced to those of the old world.

Executive summary

Recent advancements in technology can enable remote diagnosing of patients. This is the field of telemedicine. The challenge in the modern day world is to employ remote sensing techniques to implement remote diagnosis.
Designing such semi-automatic diagnostic system requires several parameters to be considered. For example, designing the system for a space ship will require some basic assumptions. The assumptions are that physical injuries can be attended to by other crew members but internal ailments that cannot be successfully diagnosed by other crew members will make use of the remote diagnostic techniques. This paper will present a possible design of ...

Impact in disease management by predicted climate change
The disease triangle is a graphical representation of a paradigm in plant pathology (Agrios 2005). It illustrates the relationship between three components of plant diseases. These components are the susceptible host, the causative biotic agent and the nature of the environment in which the two exist. If the environment is conducive for the disease causing biotic agent, then the host which is the plant is prone to adverse infection. The disease can be prevented by altering the environment in which the disease causing agent thrives in to one which is unfavorable to ...

Reflection of working with women during pregnancy and in the postnatal period

I first met Ashley at the Nepean antenatal clinic. At the time, she was 30+1 gestational weeks. I established from her history that this was her third pregnancy. Her first pregnancy had been in the year 2001. She had not carried the pregnancy to term because she had had a miscarriage. Her second pregnancy was in 2010. For this pregnancy, she had a normal vaginal delivery at 37+1 weeks. She had given birth to a live female infant, Isobel, who weighed 3140 grams. She had attended the visit with Isobel who is now 2 yrs old. A UA was performed ...

In the recent past, exceptionally premature babies have been dying at a very higher rate. It is assumed that they only have 50% chance of survival. Newborns are also in this mix as they are at bigger jeopardy of developing complications in future (Whitfield & Peters, 2004). To prevent this, both the infants and the premature babies are usually kept in incubators until they are stable. In cases where the new born is stable and does not need incubators, Kangaroo Mother Care is used. This involves a direct skin-to-skin contact between mother and the new born. One of the main reasons why ...

Abstract

The main Babesiosis diagnostic tests available are microbiological and serological. Unfortunately these tests have low specificity and sensitivity. Two molecular tests, the Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Fluorescent In-Situ Hybridization (FISH) tests, developed by IGeneX have great potential. Using 100 mice models the sensitivity and the specificity of the two tests will be determined and compared with the serological test.

Health disparities refer to variations that exist in the health status of diverse groups of people. The different groups can be classified based on sex or gender, sexual orientation, age, ethnicity, race, disability, geographic area of residence and income (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2016). Based on this classification, it is normally evident that some groups of people record higher rates of suffering and deaths from some diseases when compared to other groups (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2016). The disparities and the effects they have on healthcare outcomes are outlined below.

During my past few years as a nursing student and as a trainee nurse at this institute, I have come across different situations and experiences that have molded my thought process, my goals, and my whole personality. I have chosen the question: What do you feel you can contribute to the patient, for this assignment. Though I have chosen the nursing career with my own goals in mind, clinical experience has made me realize the extent to which patients are reliant on the nurse. I can confidently state that it would be impossible for hospitals to function without nurses. ...

The diagnostic reasoning for clinical diagnoses involves the collection of data and application of systematic approaches to formulating hypotheses and create lists of different diagnoses. However, sometimes the clinician can make errors that that have a direct impact on the way they handle a patient leading to incorrect diagnoses, treatments and overall management plan. Most medical errors are identified as systemic and are usually solved using various interventions as checklists. However, there are other errors that occur during diagnosis and treatment, and these are attributed to flawed diagnostic reasoning (Wellbery, 2011).
Diagnostic reasoning errors are mostly caused by heuristics ...

There is the need for healthcare facilities and the professionals working in such facilities to be aware of the safety and quality issues which affect the wellbeing of patients. The core objective of such a move is to ensure that patients are able to emerge with desirable outcomes and that possible readmission cases, high morbidity and high mortality cases are reduced. In this regard, therefore, it is essential that hospitals take into account the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) measures which will oversee an improvement in the safety and quality of services which patients receive ...

Introduction

During diagnostic reasoning, a clinician attempts to collect, process while also interpreting information obtained from the patient so as to generate an action plan for treatment. However, it is critical that in this process, a clinician may commit some errors that can result in a wrong diagnosis and treatment of the patient. The following section discusses three of these mistakes.

The Illusory Casualty

It is the kind of error that occurs when a clinician tends to develop a bias in finding a causal relationship even in a situation when there is none. It is a powerful bias and occurs when both the ...

Since ancient time, communities devised various mechanisms to sanction member of the community who travelled against societal norms, values, customs, and traditions. Some communities sanctioned law violators through beating, hanging, stoning, and lynching, but the type punishment imposed on the victims depended on the gravity of the offense committed. However, most communities appointed a council of elders to prosecute and punish individuals who contravened societal norms, values, and traditions with the intention to enhance cohesion, integration, and unity among the members. In essence, the council of elders acted as a local criminal justice system that had the mandate and responsibility to ...

The two main objectives of a healthcare delivery system are to provide healthcare for anybody who needs it, as well as to deliver quality care at a price patients can afford to pay. Countries around the world have a different position on how to deliver these two main objectives. For example, Canada has true universal healthcare. Citizens pay higher taxes in order to afford this healthcare, but in return if an individual is hurt, sick, mental ill, becomes pregnant, needs a dentist, or just has a chest cold, almost all of the expenses are covered at a very reasonable ...

The issue of gene patenting is an interesting one, bringing up concerns about the extent to which we ‘own’ our cells, and what rights we have with them. While some believe that, for instance, organ donors do not have the right to tissue that they have donated, others think that there must be some sense of bodily ownership that must be accounted for in issues like these. To that end, the work of Schleiter (2009), Caplan (2010), Satel (2008), and Rubin (2010) will be examined in order to see the ways in which organ and tissue donation intersect with ...
