Sleep/Wake Disorders

Help me study for my Health & Medical class. I’m stuck and don’t understand.

Sleep/Wake Disorders

It is not uncommon to experience a night or two of disrupted sleep when there is something major going on in your life. However, sleep/wake disorders are much more than an occasional night of disrupted sleep. A recent report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that between 50 and 70 million American have problems with sleep/wake disorders (CDC, 2015). Although the vast majority of Americans will visit their primary care provider for treatment of these disorders, many providers will refer patients for further evaluation. For this Discussion, you consider how you might assess and treat the individuals based on the provided client factors.

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources and reflect on the insights they provide.
  • Go to the Stahl Online website and examine the case study you were assigned.
  • Take the pretest for the case study.
  • Review the patient intake documentation, psychiatric history, patient file, medication history, etc. As you progress through each section, formulate a list of questions that you might ask the patient if he or she were in your office.
  • Based on the patient’s case history, consider other people in his or her life that you would need to speak to or get feedback from (i.e., family members, teachers, nursing home aides, etc.).
  • Consider whether any additional physical exams or diagnostic testing may be necessary for the patient.
  • Develop a differential diagnoses for the patient. Refer to the DSM-5 in this week’s Learning Resources for guidance.
  • Review the patient’s past and current medications. Refer to Stahl’s Prescriber’s Guide and consider medications you might select for this patient.
  • Review the posttest for the case study.

Note: For this Discussion, you are required to complete your initial post before you will be able to view and respond to your colleagues’ postings. Begin by clicking on the “Post to Discussion Question” link and then select “Create Thread” to complete your initial post. Remember, once you click on Submit, you cannot delete or edit your own posts, and you cannot post anonymously. Please check your post carefully before clicking on Submit!

By Day 3

Post a response to the following:

  • Provide the case number in the subject line of the Discussion.
  • List three questions you might ask the patient if he or she were in your office. Provide a rationale for why you might ask these questions.
  • Identify people in the patient’s life you would need to speak to or get feedback from to further assess the patient’s situation. Include specific questions you might ask these people and why.
  • Explain what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate for the patient and how the results would be used.
  • List three differential diagnoses for the patient. Identify the one that you think is most likely and explain why.
  • List two pharmacologic agents and their dosing that would be appropriate for the patient’s sleep/wake therapy based on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. From a mechanism of action perspective, provide a rationale for why you might choose one agent over the other.
  • If your assigned case includes “check points” (i.e., follow-up data at week 4, 8, 12, etc.), indicate any therapeutic changes that you might make based on the data provided.
  • Explain “lessons learned” from this case study, including how you might apply this case to your own practice when providing care to patients with similar clinical presentations.

Complete 2 Business Discussions (TRIDENT)

I’m working on a Business exercise and need support.

1:

For this discussion, you will be filling out some surveys based on the concepts of job redesign and job crafting. The job design survey is pretty simple, self-explanatory, and follows the five core job dimensions discussed in the background readings: http://www.nwlink.com/~donclark/leader/jobsurvey.html

The job crafting survey appears in a complicated article, but the survey is relatively straightforward and appears on page 177 of the article linked below. For each question, a “5” indicates strong agreement, a “4” means moderate agreement, a “3” means neutral, a “2” means mild disagreement, and a “1” means strong disagreement. There are four dimensions of job crafting on this survey. All of these dimensions have five questions, with the exception of “decreasing hindering job demands,” which has six questions. The total possible score on each dimension is either 25 or 30, depending on the number of questions: http://www.academia.edu/2796261/Development_and_validation_of_the_job_crafting_scale. You may also click the following link to access the Job Crafting Survey.

Report your scores on both surveys to your classmates and explain whether or not the results accurately describe your current job situation and the overall usefulness of each survey.

Also, discuss any practical implications that the results of each survey has on your organization. Do the results indicate that any specific job redesign or job crafting intervention should be done? Would you recommend either survey be used for a wider range of employees at your organization to assist in deciding on a job redesign or job crafting strategy?

2:

There are numerous videos on group decision making available online. Some of them are very professional; others seem somewhat amateurish or are designed for or by high school students.

Do a search on YouTube for videos on group decision making or on specific group decision-making techniques discussed in the background materials. Choose a video you found to be very useful at explaining the techniques in the background materials, and another video that you found to be amateurish or not very useful.

Post the links and share with your classmates. Also, share with your classmates what you found useful and not useful about each video, and whether or not you recommend your classmates view the video to prepare for their written assignments

Intro to Physical Anthropology – short discussion but well written + 2 replies

I’m stuck on a Biology question and need an explanation.

Before you begin the assignment make sure you view the video “Gene Disorders Hit Amish Hard”and make sure you read this week’s PDF “Evolution and its Mechanisms”

Genetic Drift Webquest

Introduction

The Amish in the US began as a small group of Swiss-Germans that immigrated to the US in the 1700’s. Over the course of a few centuries they grew from a small founding population of 200 to a current population of more than 250,000. The most interesting thing about the Amish is that it’s a religious group that has remained culturally isolated and by extension, genetically isolated from the rest of the country. This genetic isolation from other humans has lead to an unprecedented amount of genetic disorders among the Amish.

Physicians were initially exposed to the genetic problems plaguing the Amish in the 1960’s. When the Amish began to reach out to the medial community doctors discovered that there were an unusual number of rare genetic diseases. One of these visible and rare genetic disease was called Ellis-Van Creveld syndrome. What was surprising to medical geneticists was not the presence of the rare genetic disease but rather how many Amish had the disease in the first place. Basically, the Amish in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania had more cases of Ellis-Van Creveld syndrome than all other human in the world combined! What was even more surprising was the fact that there was not just one rare genetic disease but rather dozens of rare genetic disease (In this context, rare genetic disease means that there may be less than 150 humans in the planet having the disease). Even more unfortunate is the fact that there are hundreds of other genetic disease associated with the Amish.

The big question that the Amish wanted to know was, why do they seem to have an unusual share of genetic disease when compared to the non-Amish and how do they stop those genetic disease in the first place!

What you are doing

  • Your task will be to investigate a rare genetic disorder found among the Amish and to use evolutionary theory to both, help you understand why genetic disease can become common among isolated populations and to see how evolutionary theory can assist in curbing prevalence of genetic disease.

Before you begin your task make sure you do the following things.

  • Read lecture notes on evolution. Especially the ones pertaining to Genetic drift.
  • Watch video on Amish genetic desieses.

What you need to do

Before you begin this assignment, I recommend that you clearly understand what evolution is (a change in allele frequency from one generation to the next). Especially understand the founder effect. Make sure you use the information provided and give me informed ideas that are based on your understanding of the subject matter. For this assignment you will have to answer the following items:

  1. Pick and name a rare genetic disorder that is common among the Amish.Tell me how common the disease is around the world vs among the Amish? Give me numbers!
  2. Explain in evolutionary terms why the genetic disorder is found in unusually high frequencies among the Amish in the first place. In other words, why did some genetic variants that cause disease become unusually common over time among the Amish? Use the founder effect.
  3. Explain how the Amish might be able to curtail the incidence of your chosen genetic diseases using evolutionary knowledge. Use must explain this in evolutionary terms.
  4. Lastly, remember to cite all your work!

Thematic Web

I need help with a English question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.

Creating a Thematic Web Thematic planning organizes the curriculum around a theme and integrates several developmental and subject areas. In this assignment, you will select a theme, analyze a topic, and create a thematic web for early childhood curriculum. Course Objectives • Develop an early childhood curriculum framework reflecting developmentally appropriate practices and aligning with specific learning areas. • Apply state and national standards, principles, and guidelines for early childhood education across content areas in alignment with developmentally appropriate practices. • Identify, describe, and implement teaching strategies to enhance cognition and logical reasoning for early childhood age children. Directions: 1) Save and print the Module 1 Analysis PDF. 2) Create a Word or text document. For the narrative portions of the assignment, use 12-point Times New Roman or Arial font. You may select the fonts for your web design. 3) Use APA (6th edition) format for the title page, references page, and in-text citations. Use at least three references cited in APA (6th edition) format. 4) Use Prezi, Mindmeister, Microsoft Word, or another graphing program to create a thematic web for early childhood curriculum. The thematic web should integrate literacy, mathematics, science; cognitive/logical reasoning; and physical and social/emotional development. If needed, conduct an internet search about thematic webs and view several examples before designing one of your own. 5) In an introduction to the thematic web, identify the age of the group for whom you are designing the web: infants, toddlers, or preschoolers. 6) Describe each activity in detail. In the description, explain how the activity promotes contentspecific acquisition, cognitive/logical reasoning, and physical and social/emotional development. 7) Align each activity to state and/or national standards. 8) Follow the directions to submit the Word or text document.

Sales DF Questions

I’m working on a Business exercise and need support.

Answer the questions below. At least 150 words

1. Suppose that you are the manager of a fast-food restaurant. Explain how you would apply the principles of personal selling to your job. Contrast the approach you would use in this job with the one you would use if you were a computer sales representative.

Then answer the following questions:

What sorts of questions might you ask to determine the cultural sensitivities of a prospective client from another country?

What information sources could you use to get answers to those questions?

3.Read the case problem about Steelcase Incorporated. After you have familiarized yourself with the case, answer the following questions: (Please see attachments)

Look at the Three-Dimensional (3-D) Product Solutions Selling Model (Figure 7.1) in the textbook. Which satisfactions from the three dimensions of the model do you think customers considering the Steelcase Personal Harbor Workspaces would seek? Give reasons for your choices.

Look at the product-selling strategies for new and emerging products listed in Figure 7.2 in the textbook. Which of these strategies did the Steelcase salespeople use and how did they use each one?

The Steelcase sales team used a consultative style of selling instead of a traditional product-oriented one. Why was the product-oriented presentation ineffective?

What methods did the Steelcase sales team use to add value to their product? Why was it important to do so with this particular product?
