Planning, Prioritizing, Collaboration, and Delegation.

Prompt: 

As a coordinator of patient care, nurses occupy roles in leadership. Choose one patient from the scenario assigned to your group and identify different health care team members across the care continuum that are either involved in or impacted by care coordination and discuss how you would establish relationships to collaborate to improve patient care outcomes in transitions of care. Include at least 2 current references.

SOAP NOTE ABOUT ECTOPIC PREGNANCY

You are going to create a soap note about this patient here: D.W is a 29-year-old G2P1 female presents to the clinic with complaints of sharp, intermittent lower abdominal pain on the right side that started three days ago. She reports that the pain has gradually worsened and is now constant, radiating to her lower back. She also notes light vaginal spotting, which she initially thought was an irregular period, but it has continued for several days. The patient states that she has been feeling lightheaded and nauseous since this morning. Her last menstrual period (LMP) was six weeks ago, and she has a history of irregular cycles. She had a positive home pregnancy test one week ago but has not yet had her first prenatal visit. She denies passing clots, fever, chills, dysuria, or recent infections.

Her past obstetric history includes one prior full-term vaginal delivery without complications. She has no known history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), or previous ectopic pregnancy. However, she does report a prior laparoscopic appendectomy at age 22. The patient is sexually active in a monogamous relationship and has not been using contraception.

On physical examination, she appears slightly pale and uncomfortable but is alert and oriented. Her vital signs show mild tachycardia (HR: 102 bpm), normal blood pressure (110/70 mmHg), and normal temperature (98.6°F). A pelvic examination reveals mild cervical motion tenderness, significant right adnexal tenderness, and a slightly enlarged uterus. No significant vaginal bleeding is observed. I am attaching the template so you can develop one. In addition to that I am attaching my previous one so you can understand about the references and in text citations and per reviewed rationales. Instructions: 

nstructions:

  • Find a published research article on a topic relevant to your practice of an experiment where the researcher does not list any hypotheses.
  •  Provide the purpose/objective/aim exactly as stated in the research article. If there are more than one hypothesis, provide only one to focus on.
    • Name the population being studied
    • Identify one independent variable (IV) and one dependent variable (DV)
    • Identify the level of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval, ratio) for the DV and the type of variable (categorical or continuous).
  • Step 1 in hypothesis testing is: Determine Hypotheses
    • Rewrite the purpose/objective/aim as a null hypothesis (Ho) in words and in an equation. See the handout posted to the initial announcement this week for how to write the null and alternative hypotheses for the inferential test used to test the DV.
    • Rewrite the null hypothesis as an alternative hypothesis (Ha) in words and an equation.
  • Use information from the article to complete the rest of the steps in hypothesis testing:
    • Step 2: Propose an appropriate test. Find this information in the paragraph(s) right above the Results section. Table 7-1 in the textbook can also be helpful. Use the handout attached to the initial announcement this week to make sure you wrote the correct Ho and Ha in step 1.
      • Name the descriptive statistics related to the DV and the inferential test used to test the hypothesis you wrote in Step 1 of hypothesis testing.
      • Give the p-value used by the researchers. The p-value the researcher used to test the null hypothesis is often given in this paragraph. It can be called the level of significance or alpha value. If this value is not given, the assume that the p-value or level of significance or alpha value is 0.05
    • Step 3: Check Assumptions of the Chosen Test. This will be covered in future weeks with the content for each inferential test.
    • Step 4: Compute the Test Statistics and Find the p-Value. From the Results section, give the values for the descriptive statistics, test statistic (if given), and the p-value for the null hypothesis you wrote.
    • Step 5: Use the p-Value to Quantify Evidence Against the Null Hypothesis.
      • The p-value rule is: if the p-value is < alpha (0.05), then reject the null hypothesis.
      • If the p-value is > alpha (0.05), then fail to reject the null hypothesis.
      • Use the appropriate rule for the results of the inferential test you identified in Step 2.
      • Given the results of the study, a Type 1 or Type 2 error is possible. Based on statistical testing, only one type of error is possible. Given the results of the study, which type of error is possible given the evidence related to the null hypothesis? What are the most common reasons for this type of error.
  • If the effect size is reported, give the value and interpret it. If the effect size is not given or even if it is given, examine the descriptive statistic values for the variable and use your knowledge, critical thinking, and experience with your patients and setting to determine the clinical significance of the result… would you recommend using the experimental treatment because the magnitude of the effect is great enough to justify the cost and effort of implementing it in practice? Give the rationale for your answer.
