Discuss what is happening on a cellular level with the disease process. Be careful to realize that patients have co-morbidities and you may need to discuss the other diseases impact on the pathophysiology and care of the patient.  Three (3) resources after 2008 are required along with APA format. 

A 38 year female old med student goes to her physician with complaints of arthralgia and a new rash on her face bilaterally. The rash get worse when in the sun. When she is fatigued, she complains of a sharp pain in her chest when taking a deep breath. She has experienced this before, but this present episode has been the worst she has ever felt. An exam was completed and tests ordered. The following results are:

Physical:

Temperarture, respiratory rate, and BP normal, Heart rate regular and normal

Facial rash macular over the bridge of her nose and cheeks. Discoid scaling also noted on her extensor surfaces of her arms.

Joint pain and stiffness and pain in hands on active and passive motion

Pleural friction rub auscultated with deep respiration

Other systems examined normal.

Labs:

Serum electrolytes – normal

Hemoglibin and Hematocrit – low

Platelet count – slightly low

White blood cells – normal

BUN and Creatinine – elevated

Urine – Positive for Protein

CXR – Small pleural effusion noted

Antinuclear antibody (ANA) – positive

Anti-DNA antibodies – positive

Diagnosis: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)

Questions:

1. What is the common descriptive term for this patient’s facial rash and why?

1. What does sunlight do to people with this disease that they are taught t avoid it?

1. Which lab results indicate renal dysfunction. Is this dysfunction related to SLE? Why or why not?

1. State the other signs and symptoms of SLE that are manifested in this patients physical exam and labs? Give the rationale for each.

1. What is the pathophysiology behind SLE causing widespread tissue damage?

1. What is discoid lupus and is it different from SLE?

1. What type of teaching and management plan will be need to be devised by the APN for this patient?

For a company training webinar, you will create an infographic using text and images that illustrate the concepts associated with cogent reasoning skills.

Instructions:

Use the Rasmussen library or other credible online resources to research one or more online articles about the topic of cogent reasoning and valid vs. invalid arguments.

Create an infographic that includes the following elements:

· Images and text that illustrate valid arguments.

· Images and text that illustrate invalid arguments.

· Images and text that illustrate cogent reasoning.

· An example of using evidence in defending an argument.

· An example of using evidence in refuting an argument.

· Include a space for references for the images and ideas used in the infographic.

Use
your own words when adding text to the infographic, and create
your own charts and diagrams. Do not copy/paste text, charts, diagrams, etc. directly into your infographic. Submit your infographic in a Word or PDF document.

Week 4 Discussion Forum

      

Complete your week 4 required discussion prompt.

• The  NLN vision series is considered a roadmap for where nurse education is  headed. Review the different statements listed at the following linkhttp://www.nln.org/newsroom/nln-position-documents/nln-living-documents 

 Links to an external site.  Consider where your research proposal most closely fits within or  aligns to the listed statements. Choose one or two and explain in detail  why you feel it aligns with the NLN’s vision.

To Prepare:

· Review the Resources and reflect on the impact of clinical systems on outcomes and efficiencies within the context of nursing practice and healthcare delivery.

· Conduct a search for recent (within the last 5 years) research focused on the application of clinical systems. The research should provide evidence to support the use of one type of clinical system to improve outcomes and/or efficiencies, such as “the use of personal health records or portals to support patients newly diagnosed with diabetes.”

· Identify and select 4 peer-reviewed research articles from your research.

· For information about annotated bibliographies, visit 

https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/writingcenter/assignments/annotatedbibliographiesLinks to an external site.

The Assignment: (4-5 pages not including the title and reference page)

In a 4- to 5-page paper, synthesize the peer-reviewed research you reviewed. Format your Assignment as an Annotated Bibliography. Be sure to address the following:

· Identify the 4 peer-reviewed research articles you reviewed, citing each in APA format.

· Include an introduction explaining the purpose of the paper.

· Summarize each study, explaining the improvement to outcomes, efficiencies, and lessons learned from the application of the clinical system each peer-reviewed article described. Be specific and provide examples.

· In your conclusion, synthesize the findings from the 4 peer-reviewed research articles.

· Use APA format and include a title page.

· Use the Safe Assign Drafts to check your match percentage before submitting your work.

1.Define psychopharmacology and pharmacodynamics and describe the neuron’s cellular structure. Include the definition of synapses as well as their significance to the nervous and psychological system. 

2.Research an article on neuron’s cellular structure works and explain what you found interesting about this topic.

Discussion should be 500 words minimum. Reply to classmates 250 words. References in APA not older than 5 years.

Post your original response by the end of Day 3. Then, by the end of Day 6, comment on at least two of your classmates’ posts.

If you copy and paste references from the course into your assignment, be sure to confirm APA formatting before submitting.
