Assignment 1: Lab Assignment: Assessing the Abdomen
Please note this assignment is due week 6. Please refer to your resource list as well as your grading rubrics and study guide for week 6. In this Lab Assignment, you will analyze an Episodic note case study that describes abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting. You will consider what history should be collected from the patients as well as which physical exams and diagnostic tests should be conducted. You will also formulate a differential diagnosis with several possible conditions. Please use your Resource list and grading rubric as a guide. Please reach out to me if you have any questions regarding this assignment

For this Discussion, you will select a specific women’s health issue. You will research this issue, and share common symptoms, recommended diagnostic tests, and common treatments.
To prepare:
Based on the issue you chose, post a description of the issue you chose and your explanation of common symptoms, recommended diagnostic tests, and common treatments. Be specific and provide examples. Use the evidence from your search of the literature to support your explanation of the woman’s health issue you chose.
Next, post your responses to the following questions related to the issue you wrote about in Part 1.
1. A. Compare vulnerable populations. B. Describe an example of one of these groups in the United States or from another country. C.Explain why the population is designated as “vulnerable.” Include the number of individuals belonging to this group and the specific challenges or issues involved. D. Discuss why these populations are unable to advocate for themselves, the ethical issues that must be considered when working with these groups, and how nursing advocacy would be beneficial.
2. A. How does the community health nurse recognize bias, stereotypes, and implicit bias within the community? B. How should the nurse address these concepts to ensure health promotion activities are culturally competent? C. Propose strategies that you can employ to reduce cultural dissonance and bias to deliver culturally competent care. D. Include an evidence-based article that addresses the cultural issue. E. Cite and reference the article in APA format.
Part 2: Advanced Levels of Clinical Inquiry and Systematic Reviews
Create a 6- to 7-slide PowerPoint presentation in which you do the following:
Apply information from the Aquifer virtual case studies to answer the following questions:
• What is the CC in the case studies? What are important questions to ask the patients to formulate the history of present illness and what did the patients tell you?
• What components of the physical exams are important to review in the cases? What are pertinent positive and negative physical exam findings to help you formulate your diagnosis?
• Which differential diagnosis is to be considered with each case study? What was your final diagnosis?
Attached are both case scenarios’ summary.

She denies leakage of fluid and vaginal bleeding. Ms. Clarke is very upset about her 40lbs weight gain. She relates to the nurse that since she became pregnant she has lost interest in many of her physical and social activities. Ms. Clarke states she is bored, depressed, and very unhappy about her appearance. She says her eating habits have changed considerably. She snacks while watching TV and rarely prepares a meal and she currently smokes a pack of cigarettes per day.

Gestational diabetes, chronic hypertension, stillbirth at 28 weeks gestation. She is currently not taking any medication or prenatal vitamins and has no prenatal care since her first ultrasound at six weeks.

Leading Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Healthcare
Use the map below to engage important population health concepts. Click on each hot spot to learn more about the population in that area.
This week, you discovered that the focus of healthcare has a growing emphasis on population health. Emphasis on quality improvement and tracking outcomes has led to exploring “why?” Why do some patients have trouble controlling their diabetes? Why do so some pediatric diabetic patients show up in the emergency department with an uncontrolled episode? These questions have led the DNP scholar and other healthcare providers to consider the social determinants of health. This query also requires that consideration be given to “how?” How do healthcare providers improve outcomes for a given population? Explore these questions as they relate to the populations represented on the interactive map below. Select one of the populations on the map and address the following:
· Create a culturagram for your selected population.. You may use the attached template (attached), if you desire.
· Conduct a search for evidence. Identify one evidence-based intervention to reduce health disparities in the selected population.
· Consider how the selected intervention addresses at least one of the CLAS standards.
· Share your professional experience related to the topic.

In 500 words or more (no less), explain the difference between normative ethics and meta-ethics. You may use examples, but you will still need to include a full scholarly definition of each, with commentary. You may use any scholarly source other than a dictionary, to include online video lectures. You may use Wikipedia as a starting point, but be aware that Wikipedia is not a scholarly source and therefore can never be quoted in your paper. You will need to include in-text citations in your essay (last name, date, pg#) and an APA formatted References page. You can find tools and examples of APA citation formats at the Purdue University Online Writing Lab.
