Introduction

In essence, Mechanical Ventilation (MV) aids in supporting critically ill patients in maintaining adequate gas alveolar. Pediatrics patients admitted to the intensive care units in need of the therapy ranges between 30% and 64%. Despite the benefits derived from using this method, some complication emerges at the end of the process when it is employed in premature babies. Primarily, the therapy may lead to lung damage, dysfunction of the right ventricle, and pneumonia. Extubation occurs when a patient can maintain efficient gas exchange without being sustained by the ventilator or when requiring minimum support. Notably, ventilator disconnection comprises of ...

Sociology is the study of society, of the relationships between individuals, of the rules governing social lives, but also of how to break the rules (Babbie, 1994). The analyzed reading suggests that is no single perspective that is true or representative regarding all these aspects, and paradigms such as interactionism, functionalism or conflict are only several approaches through which they can be analyzed (Barbie, 1994). The article “An idea Whose Time Has Come” questions the validity of many of the mass media information fed to individuals on a daily basis and challenges the authority of rules, demonstrating that nowadays, ...

Businesses often turn to service marketing as a means of differentiating themselves from competitors or substitutes. The companies target the intangible aspects of the transaction process such as product delivery, superior customer services, rapid feedback programs, B2B services, rental services, amongst others. Martha White (2017) in “Traveling Is Stressful, but Do It With Us, Companies Say” examines how corporations use service marketing to boost their sales and expand the consumer base. The article is useful since it brings out various forms of service marketing which are utilized by hospitality and travel organizations to make journeys and vacations less stressful. ...

In the article, “Diverging Development: The Not-so-invisible Hand of Social Class in the United States”, Furstenberg said that social class is quickly beginning to shape the development of children, even before the child is born. Classism is alive in the form of less opportunities for lower social classes, forming a class that isn’t necessarily unintelligent, but uneducated. There exists a stereotype against those of lower social classes that these people do not strive to rise in the social hierarchy, and they often receive sub-par assistance, in part, through this prejudice. The article argues that social class is part ...

I agree with the assertions that Air Canada’s innovation team played a significant role in improving air travel experiences for customers. The “data –driven” team led the innovation efforts at Air Canada. Their focus has been on improving the customers’ experience. Data serves as a critical element that allows the innovation team to acquit themselves and comprehend the way customers are using the various Air Canada’s self-service channels. The innovation processes are involved in identifying the programs that work, the ones that do not, and the processes that can be improved. The innovative technology strategy has led ...

Introduction

The study was carried out to determine the leadership competencies and the strategic vision which is essential for management which concerns a change in the complex healthcare organizations. Certain nations such as Switzerland do not have the leadership skills required in the nursing sector. The adapted program to solve the satiation was the “Royal College of Nursing (RCN) Clinical Leadership Programme.” The purpose of adopting it was to ensure that it would support that program. The study was supposed to determine the best methods that would be used in the process of the formation of the vision. The vision ...

While taking a closer look at Buck’s (2007) and Davis’s (1983) articles, I concluded the main theme in both papers to be how women of colour not only face sexism but also racism in western cultures, specifically the U.S. These articles address the development of the women’s movement in America and show how sex is always placed ahead of, and to the exclusion of, race when it comes to feminism. Both writers take the stance that women of colour never had a chance to be a viable part of the fight for women’s rights as ...

The articles elaborate Johnson and Johnson's novel marketing strategy in Africa to gain a greater market share in the region. The company has recently turned to Africa to improve its future sales in the medical diagnostics and pharmaceuticals segments. Its primary marketing strategy has been investing in research and development in the continent. It is building relationships with the consumers by first providing the residents of South Africa with the desperately needed services such as mobilizing health facilities and drug distribution. (Johnson & Johnson 1). The company is investing in building these relationships because it presents them with a market ...

Both the readings have a similar purpose and that is to explain what scientific research is and what its components are. Both of them are in the position to believe that science is not something that can be based on personal opinions; rather, it is based on evidence. Pring’s main argument is that the ontological dualism between quantitative and qualitative research are false (60). On the other hand, Chalmers strongly argues that in scientific research, the senses should be used objectively rather than subjectively (5). Both the scholars focus on scientific observation and how it should be done ...

There are so many nurses in the country, so people might think that their voice would be clear and heard out loud. However, that is not the case. It is not always easy to talk about issues, especially if it would have a direct effect on your job. I have to agree with Garon. According to Garon, it is important that nurses realize the need to speak up and be heard at work. It is important not just for the satisfaction at work, but also to have better team work and to provide outmost patient safety. (Garon 2012). I ...

Critical design/design fiction originates from graphic design authorship. Critical design utilizes design as a medium to display political, social, economic, and cultural issues. This approach has a close association to contemporary product design and is closely related to graphic design authorship, and the objects in critical design serve the function of acting as polemical actors. Besides, critical design consists of contemporary designers who have a critical attitude towards mainstream product design. These designers borrow from recent commercial design despite distancing themselves from it. Design fiction raises various themes in its agenda such as sexuality, technology, and genetics among others. ...

It is not a secret that our set of mind and character traits directly influence the state of our health. Jokela et al. study the connection between the Big Five personality traits that include extraversion, neuroticism, agreeableness, openness to experience, and conscientiousness and coronary heart disease and heart stroke mortality (Jokela et al., 2014, p. 882). According to the authors, the higher risk of mortality from coronary heart disease is associated with lower conscientiousness, lower agreeableness, lower extraversion, higher neuroticism, and lower openness to experience; at the same time, the higher risk of stroke mortality is associated with lower ...

The article under the study puts light on the qualitative research, which lacks in majority of schools. Most of the schools focus more on the quantitative analysis instead of qualitative analysis.

Many elementary schools fail to realize the importance of certain characteristics which needs to be developed ...

In the book, Edward Weisband and Courtney Thomas have discussed political culture, its application as well as the different aspects related to it. According to the authors, a political culture refers to all the factors that enable the thriving of a particular political system. In fact, the practices, the values, the beliefs, and the shared systems, all contribute to the formation of a political system that defines an administration. In as much as most people believe that such a culture is naturally formed, this notion is not true because it takes many years to develop fully and take strong ...

The article is a discourse on criminal justice, assessing the role of the bourgeois intellectuals who have in time over assigned contradicting explanations to criminal justice and prescribed prejudiced proposals on the role and extent of punishment of petty offenders. The paper covers the role of the political economy in influencing the views of these intellectuals, and the interplay between politics and the world view of these realists. It also looks at the investment made in criminal justice and the role of law enforcement in protecting the middle class from crimes and victimization resulting from such inter-class prejudice. According ...

PepsiCo remains a leading global brand, specializing in the making of packaged drinks and foods. Commonly recognizable PepsiCo products include Fritos, Cheetos, Lay’s, and Pepsi, all similar due to either their high fat content, high salt content or sugar, all unhealthy options in flavoring food. However, consumers are on an increasingly health conscious diet, where high fat, sodium, and sugary foods are shunned for healthier alternatives. It is the consideration that PepsiCo Chief Executive Indra Nooyi seeks the transformation of the company into a healthy foods juggernaut. Commitment to the healthy foods cause has witnessed the company’s ...

Introduction

The research was carried out to establish the results of a three-year training program which is founded on the learning principles. The effectiveness of the program is being evaluated in promoting authentic Leadership (AL) the participants’ mindfulness. The reason for carrying out the evaluation is due to arguments between various authors who reasoned out that the adoption of authentic leader method is attributed by coherence between the actions undertaken and espoused values and clear intentions. The characteristics are required to attain sustainable business performance (Baron, 2016). Throughout the world, there is a call for genuine leadership which will guide ...

Culture can be termed as a pattern of customs, ideas, and behaviors that are shared by a particular group of people in a given society (Jeffreys, 2015). Culture has vast influence on health. It affects beliefs about a certain disease, perceptions of health, health promotion approaches, how to express pain and illness, where and how patients seek medical help and the type of treatment that patients prefer. In western industrialized societies like the United States, a disease is as result of natural scientific phenomena and medical treatments are considered as the best method to treat the disease (Jeffreys, 2015). ...

Trump’s Attempt

Trump’s Attempt This reflection addresses the question of Trump’s role as “leader of the free world” in Bibbins Sedaca’s article dated 26 January 2017. Bibbins Sedaca has noted that historically presidents, “leaders-in-chief,” have traditionally used their inaugural speeches to articulate “the United States’ clear commitment to leading the global fight for democracy and human rights.” These speeches have been similar cross party lines with an assumed unity across all American peoples. And yet, here Bibbins Sedaca suggests if Trump does not turn around his first few behaviours soon that the world will no longer be defined ...

Introduction

The book The Lucifer Effect by Philip Zimbardo argues that beneath any man lies some degree of evil, so detrimental if exposed under duress. The Lucifer Effect explains how good men can transform when exposed to stressful environments to commit heinous activities beyond imaginable moral magnitudes. In this regard, the author empirically explains the findings of the Stanford Prison Experiment (SPE) the processes involved in transforming good men into committing evil and heinous activities under duress and powerful situational forces. A comparison between the SPE findings and those of the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq have strong correlations in ...

LEED Neighborhood Development (ND) rating systems such LEED-ND are designed for the certification of exemplary neighborhood development projects which show exemplary performance in relation to smart growth, green building, and new urbanism. Contextually, such development projects include whole neighborhoods, multiple neighborhoods, and even parts of neighborhoods. By reviewing the Pilot version of the LEED-ND 2007 certification document, it is evident that LEED-ND systems are designed to drive the marketplace towards acknowledging the central doctrine of green building i.e. the simple fact that our personal, economic and environment health is significantly influenced by our immediate surroundings which include the places ...

The article is impressive in the manner it discusses issues regarding the challenges that people face in their bid to achieve social justice. It is particularly remarkable given that it exposes a contemporary society that is geared towards prosperity by all means possible while disregarding equally important conservative principles. The aspect of fighting for social justice is apparent when the author observes how the Buddhists embarked on a mission to address a local problem of deforestation and destruction of the ecosystem after realizing how harmful the trend was to the community. From the article, the use of religion by ...

The End of Energy: Discussion.

Additionally, Graetz also focuses on another major theme where he notes that the government through its incompetent policies has consistently failed to ensure that Americans pay for the true cost of the energy they consume every day. These costs include the logistics of oil transportation overseas, the costs of military protection from pirates in the Persian Gulf routes, the costs of greenhouse emissions made by consumers and oil spills made during transport, and the efforts made to combat terrorism brought about by the oil trade whose costs are not reflected in the final prices paid by Americans (Graetz, 2011). ...

[Client’s name] [Institutional Affiliations] The article by Hitesh Bhasin is one of the latest news update on the service marketing. The article is directly related to the field of study, and it is very thought provoking. That is why I chose it. It is said in the article that services have zero inventory. This article made to think about the non-recurring services and the peculiarities of the service marketing in this case. Once given services are sold forever. The service business perishes, so the marketing strategy in this sphere should be built accordingly. That is also meant that ...

One of the biggest reasons why there seem to be more incidents of poor behavior in youth sports today is the prevalence of social media and cell phone videos. More people are catching the misbehavior of coaches and adults in youth sports and posting the videos to be seen across the country. This deplorable behavior is caused by a combination of reasons. The majority of youth coaches are parents of a player who try to do the noble thing and coach young kids. The problem arises when these dads interpret the privilege to coach as an opportunity to make ...

In 399 BC, one of the greatest ancient thinkers, Socrates, faced the trial upon the accusations of his corrupting influence on the Athenian youth, rejection of gods recognized by the Athenian state and invention of new gods. In the course of the trial, the philosopher was given an opportunity to defend himself, and his speech interpreted by Plato under the title Apology has survived until nowadays as a prominent example of rhetoric and argumentation. Socrates moves from explanations of his actions to critique of the values and misconceptions of his accusers (particularly, Meletus). Although one would expect a person ...

In the South China Morning Post's article called “Dumping of untreated acid in Chinese canal highlights nation's water pollution woes,” we read that a Jiangsu chemical plant was recently charged with the fine of 20 million yuan ($2.88 million) for the violation of dumping nearly 2,700 tons of liquid acid waste into the Grand Canal. The reason for this fine is due to the immeasurable level of environmental damage that this caused. The fine attests to the drastic importance of respecting the earth and its bodies of waters, understanding that it is all maintained by a delicate natural ...

Introduction

A DC –9, twin-engine plane belonging to ValuJet, a fast rising Airline Company crashes into a swamp and kills everybody on board. This includes the pilots, 105 passengers, and the flight attendants. It is a terrible scene to witness such a scenario especially considering that flights are the safest mode of transport. The term safety is, however, relative when it comes to an accident where almost everybody in the plane is killed thus making it tragic (Langewiesche, 1998). Despite the tragedies that come with plane crashes, the amount of seriousness given to it at the time of occurrence is ...

Many notable writers and educators have strong feelings against the elusive semicolon. Referred to “the mermaid of the punctuation world- period above, coma below- is viewed with suspicion by many people, including well-known people,” (Aneron, 1). Some well-known authors have boycotted the particular piece of punctuation all together, others claim they do nothing other than prove one gained a higher education. Most English teachers admit this part of grammar is also very difficult to teach and even more difficult for students to grasp. On the other hand, there are some who feel very strongly in favor of the mermaid ...

Janet Byron Anderson, the author of The Vocabula Review, discusses the merits and demerits of using a semi-colon in literature. In her article, The Enigmatic Semicolon, Anderson starts by describing the fascination human beings have over hybrid beasts and mythology. She uses the mermaid, a sensuous woman with muscular fish resemblance below. According to myth, the mermaid lures sailors with lovely songs, which makes them forget what they are doing and jump off the deck only to drown. Similarly, the semicolon tends to have comparable psychological influence, whereby a writer feels the urge to use it but fears that ...

The article by Bill Carey looks into matters arising from the lack of proper laws and restrictions by the FAA to curb incidences caused by the illegal flying of drones near airports (Carey 4). Carey acknowledges the increase of drone hobbyists and their desire to capture different scenarios. Moreover, the cost of acquiring a drone is slightly cheaper than they were a few years back. Therefore, the common citizens can afford to enjoy flying these drones in designated places. According to a report published by FAA in May 2016 stated that there were 443,000 registered drones weighing between ...

Dementia is a package of signs and symptoms which include personality change, impaired intellectual functions, and memory loss which come as a result of trauma to the brain or disease (Godbolt et al. S247). Unfortunately, these changes severely affect independence, relationships, and daily living. However, they do not count as part and parcel of normal aging. There are numerous forms of dementia which include vascular and mixed dementia but Alzheimer’s disease happens to be the most common type (Mitchell 443). A person affected by dementia portrays a noticeable decline in remembering, learning, communication and problem-solving. Often, these changes ...

The delay problems arose from the failing of the software. A system that worked well with one team or one project could easily fall when used on a different team. The waterfall approach was also to blame for the delay problems. The system relied on the mass launch rather than a sequential launch of the software (Bright pg 2). Why has the Waterfall Method "stuck around"? i.e. why is it still in use? The Waterfall method has stuck around since waterfall method mostly offers the stepwise approach to any problem. It shows the developers the steps and the ...

The article focusses on evaluating Dr. Patricia Benner’s seminal work. In her works, Dr. Benner coins the concepts of development of skills and insight concerning patient care by expert nurses through educational foundation and long term experiences. She argues that experience as well as mastery gained through training and education play a great role in moving nurses from novices to experts (Altmann, 2007). Nurses can acquire knowledge and skills, which she describes as “knowing how” without having to learn the theory “knowing why” (Altmann, 2007). The other unique concept that Benner describes in her theory is the connection ...

Over the years, it has become normal for all types of engineers to use process simulation in performing different tasks. Among the tasks that engineers rely on simulation include calculating energy and mass balances in flow-sheets in predicting the performances of alternative processes that can save companies and governments millions of shillings. As such, engineers must define complex flow-sheets as well as process conditions before the simulation process formally begins. It should be noted that desktop computers currently allow sizing, optimization, dynamic calculations, and rating which previously tended to demand large mainframe computers to compute. Additionally, more experts were ...

Organizations serving the public should have a well-defined disaster management plan, which ensures potential disasters are identified and countered before they happen. Structuring the emergency services effectively ensures that the consequences of disasters are duly minimized, and people who would be planning to attack a given facility draws back. According to Kim (2014), organizations such as hospitals should ensure that collaboration of all departments should be highly acknowledged since emergency control department cannot singularly handle disasters in the entire hospital without reinforcement from other departments. It is, therefore, important that every stakeholder or employee in the hospital be taken ...

The design and goals of management policies are primarily influenced by the fisheries and marine ecosystems health mental concepts. The Cognitive Maps: Cartography and Concepts for an Ecosystem-Based Fisheries Policy article, discusses how these mental concepts that are held by some individuals are fostered by the approach of Back to the Future (BTF) to the policy of fisheries (Tony & Nigel 1976). Such cognitive maps are normally obtained from local and traditional knowledge and the interplay of science. The approach of Back to the Future action employs all the sectors in remedial and positive and is meant to engage the ...

Stevey is very opinionated, honest and open-minded about legalizing marijuana.

The United States is still reeling in the aftermath of a Donald Trump presidency and the surprises it may bring with it. In Paul Krugman’s article, Donald Trump’s Medical Delusions, it is clear that there are inadequacies of the Trump attacks of Obamacare. “Repeal and replace” turns out to have been a political slogan because the changes proposed by the Conservatives/ Republicans may never see the light of day. Repealing Obamacare was a campaign strategy that may have won Donald Trump the presidency but its viability leads to a lot of questions raised as to whether it ...
