Assignment Details MN551: Develop cooperative relationships with clients when teaching concepts concerning pathological states to individuals and families Select one of the case studies below, and include discussion of your strategy for winning the patients cooperation while teaching concepts concerning pathological states to them and their families. Requirements Make sure all of the topics in the case study have been addressed. Cite at least three sources; journal articles, textbooks or evidenced-based websites to support the content. All sources must be within five years. Do not use .com, Wikipedia, or up-to-date, etc., for your sources. Case Study 1 Concepts of Altered Health in Older Adults Joseph P. is an 82-year-old male living at home. He is in overall good health and enjoys taking long walks as often as possible. During his walks, he likes to stop for a cold glass of fruit juice at the local cafeteria. On cold or rainy days, he rides a stationary bicycle at home for 30 minutes to “stay in good shape.” What physiological factors would typically increase Joseph’s risk of falling while walking outdoors? What are the common changes in blood pressure regulation that occurs with aging? Joseph enjoys fruit juice when he walks. Considering the renal system in the older adult, why would dehydration be a particular concern? Case Study 2 Structure and Function of the Kidney Rivka is an active 21-year-old who decided to take a day off from her university classes. The weather was hot and the sun bright, so she decided to go down to the beach. When she arrived, she found a few people playing beach volleyball, and they asked if she wanted to join in. She put down her school bag and began to play. The others were well prepared for their day out and stopped throughout the game to have their power drinks and soda pop. Several hours after they began to play, however, Rivka was not feeling so good. She stopped sweating and was feeling dizzy. One player noted she had not taken a washroom break at all during the day. They found a shaded area for her, and one of the players shared his power drink with her. Rivka was thirstier than she realized and quickly finished the drink. In pronounced dehydration, hypotension can occur. How would this affect the glomerular filtration rate of the kidney? What actions by the juxtaglomerular apparatus would occur to restore GFR? What is the effect aldosterone has on the distal convoluted tubule? Why would the actions of aldosterone be useful to Rivka in her situation? What does a specific gravity test measure? If someone tested the specific gravity of Rivka’s urine, what might it indicate? Case Study 3 Disorders of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance Amanda is an 18-year-old with anorexia nervosa. She was recently admitted to an eating disorders clinic with a BMI of 13.9, and although she was a voluntary patient, she was reluctant about the treatment. She was convinced she was overweigh.

Assignment Details create a detailed sentence outline for your research paper. Your outline should include the following: •Thesis statement: Because you are writing an argument or persuasive paper, your thesis must state a clear stance on the topic that you have selected. The thesis should be written in the third person and not be more than one sentence long. This thesis does not have to be the same as your thesis in the Unit 1 Individual Project. Your new thesis will most likely reflect the research and reflection that you have done since then. You may have even changed your initial stance. •Main points or claims: You should include at least 3 main points or claims to support your thesis. These main points should be complete sentences that are phrased entirely in your own words. The main points represent a synthesis of your research on the topic: source readings, discussion with others, and personal reflection combined to produce your thesis. These are not necessarily the same main points that you used in your Unit 1 IP. Because you have researched this topic, you may have gained additional insights, evidence, and arguments that will be reflected in this new thesis and main points. •Notations of source usage: Beneath each main point, you should indicate how information from sources may be used to support each point. Because you have not yet written the paper, you do not know for sure how you will use the information from your sources. You are still in the planning stage; however, at this stage, you should be able to indicate with some accuracy how source material will help you develop your main points. Be sure to provide in-text citations. •APA reference list: Provide an alphabetized list of the sources that you plan to use to support your main points. These do not have to be the same sources that you listed in the Unit 2 IP. Each of the sources should be listed as a reference citation in correct APA style. This list should have the word “References” in boldface at the top. Content Provides four-sentence outline consisting of thesis and three main points. Each main point is followed by one or more source notations (with in-text citation) of how source may be used in paper. Directly following outline is a Reference citation list in APA of sources used in outline. 40% Critical Thinking Use of sources demonstrates ability to effectively relate concepts and information from the source to the three key claims of an argument. 30% Presentation Posts adhere to college-level standards effective written communication skills, including correct grammar, spelling and mechanics. 10% Interactivity Actively participates throughout the week and provides substantive responses to at least 2 classmate posts following instructions provided. 20 .
