Immune Disorders in Pediatrics and Geriatrics
You began exploring the pathophysiology and treatment for immune disorders, such as HIV, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, and systemic lupus E. You continue this exploration as you consider these disorders in specific patient groups: pediatrics and geriatrics. As an advanced practice nurse, you must understand the differences in the pathophysiology of these patients, as well as how the drugs used to treat immune disorders might impact the body systems of pediatric and geriatric patients. These two patient groups process and respond to drugs differently than the average adult in their absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs. For this reason, special consideration must be taken when treating immune disorders in pediatric and geriatric patients.
To prepare:
Review this week's media presentation on antimicrobials.
Select one of the following immune disorders: HIV, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, or systemic lupus E (SLE)
Think about the pathophysiology of your selected disorder. Compare pathophysiological changes in pediatric and geriatric patients.
Consider the types of drugs that are used to treat symptoms associated with your selected disorder. Reflect on how the drugs might impact various body systems in pediatric and geriatric patients, as well as measures you might take to help reduce any negative effects.
Reflect on how you might educate a pediatric patient on the disorder you selected and how you might educate a geriatric patient on the same disorder. Consider how you would promote medication adherence, as well.
To complete:
Write a 3- to 4-page paper that addresses the following:
1. Explain the pathophysiology of the disorder you selected. Then, compare pathophysiological changes in pediatric and geriatric patients.
2. Describe the types of drugs that are used to treat symptoms associated with the disorder you selected. Explain how these drugs might impact various body systems in pediatric and geriatric patients, as well as measures you might take to help reduce any negative effects.
3. Explain how you might educate a pediatric patient on the disorder you selected and how you might educate a geriatric patient on the same disorder. Include your rationale for each approach, as well as how you would promote medication adherence.
4. Summary with conclusion

Maladaptive Responses to Immune Disorders
Maladaptive responses to disorders are compensatory mechanisms that ultimately have adverse health effects for patients. For instance, a patient’s allergic reaction to peanuts might lead to anaphylactic shock, or a patient struggling with depression might develop a substance-abuse problem. To properly diagnose and treat patients, advanced practice nurses must understand both the pathophysiology of disorders and potential maladaptive responses that some disorders cause.
Consider immune disorders, such as HIV, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, and systemic lupus E. What are resulting maladaptive responses for patients with these disorders?
To prepare:
Review Chapter 5 and Chapter 7 in the Huether and McCance text, as well as the Yi, et al, article in the Learning Resources. Reflect on the concept of maladaptive responses to disorders.
Select two of the following immune disorders: HIV, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, and/or systemic lupus E (SLE).
Think about the pathophysiology of each disorder you selected. Consider the compensatory mechanisms that the disorders trigger. Then, compare the resulting maladaptive and physiological responses of the two disorders.
Consider the types of drugs that would be prescribed to patients to treat symptoms associated with these disorders and why.
Select one of the following patient factors: genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, or behavior. Consider how your selected factor might impact the disorder. Then, reflect on how your selected factor might impact the effects of prescribed drugs, as well as any measures you might take to help reduce any negative side effects.

Discussion 2: Arthritis
While arthritis impacts nearly 50 million adults in the United States, it is not a disease that is limited to adulthood. Consider the case of Ashley Russell. At the age of 14 months, Ashley was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. As a baby, her parents noticed that her knee was always swollen and that she often wanted to be carried instead of walking on her own (Cyr, 2012). After seeking medical care, Ashley’s underlying disorder was discovered. Arthritis in children is not uncommon. According to the CDC (2011), an estimated 294,000 children under age 18 have some form of arthritis or rheumatic condition. Due to the prevalence of the disorder in both children and adults, you must understand the pathophysiology and symptoms of arthritis in order to properly diagnose and prescribe treatment.

Week 8: Infections
Prior to the H1N1 influenza pandemic in 2009, it had been more than 40 years since an infectious virus had resulted in such substantial illness, hospitalizations, and deaths on a global scale (CDC, 2010). This can be attributed to improved prevention such as proper hygiene, as well as vaccinations and other drug therapies. However, as the H1N1 pandemic illustrates, infections are sometimes unavoidable even when appropriate prevention methods are implemented. In clinical settings, patients present with various infections including common disorders such as flus and colds, as well as disorders that require more extensive treatment and care such as the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or tuberculosis (TB). As an advanced practice nurse, you must evaluate patients presenting with symptoms of infections and recommend appropriate drug treatments.
This week you begin to explore infections by considering issues surrounding the prevalence, management, and education about HIV/AIDS. You also examine viral and bacterial infections, as well as the appropriate use of antimicrobial agents.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this week, students will:
· Analyze reasons for the prevalence of HIV/AIDS
· Analyze ways health care professionals can change society’s perceptions of HIV/AIDS
· Analyze strategies to educate HIV positive patients on treatment and management
· Analyze categories of antimicrobial agents
· Differentiate between viral and bacterial infections
· Analyze the relationship between infections and antimicrobial agents
· Understand and apply key terms, concepts, and principles related to prescribing drugs to treat infections and infestations

Lydia Allen Rudd, Diary of Westward Travel (1852)
May 6 1852
Left the Missouri river for our long journey across the wild uncultivated plains and unhabitated except by the red man. As we left the river bottom and ascended the bluffs the view from them was handsome! In front of us as far as vision could reach extended the green hills covered with fine grass. . . . Behind us lay the Missouri with its muddy water hurrying past as if in great haste to reach some destined point ahead all unheeding the impatient emigrants on the opposite shore at the ferrying which arrived faster than they could be conveyed over. About half a miles down the river lay a steamboat stuck fast on a sandbar. Still farther down lay the busy village of St. Joseph looking us a good bye and reminding us that we were leaving all signs of civilised life for the present. But with good courage and not one sigh of regret I mounted my pony (whose name by the way is Samy) and rode slowly on. In going some two miles, the scene changed from bright sunshine to drenching showers of rain this was not quite agreeable for in spite of our good blankets and intentions otherwise we got some wet. The rain detained us so that we have not made but ten miles today. . . .

1. Based on everything you’ve read, create a mission statement for Strictly Solar. Prepare a short justification for Mr. Jones.
2. Next, develop a minimum of two corporate objectives based on the information found in the case. You may very well be able to develop 3 or more.
3. While Strictly Solar is a very new company, there are some factors that can be analyzed within this framework. Discuss those factors in the context of the information provided (from the Strictly Solar case background)
4. Identify the specific strengths and weaknesses, as well as the potential causes (e.g., the types of resources that are available).
5. Based on this limited information, what strengths may form the basis of capabilities?
6. Now, switch gears. Think about the unique fabric and its patented solar ability. For what types of products and industries would the SOLAR aspect allow a manufactor to change the value curve? In other words, by adding the solar feature, what other product features could be eliminated, reduced, or expanded beyond the creation of the solar aspect to add value to the product, and appeal to an entirely new group of customers?

Mr. Robert Jones - NASA
An accomplished problem-solver, Mr. Jones formerly worked at NASA as an engineer in various capacities. He earned dual doctorates in mechanical engineering and astrophysics from prestigious institutions and continued his education by attending various academic and professional conferences.
Mr. Jones has a reputation as a fair, highly principled man, who has strong ethical values that guide his personal and work behavior. He was so deeply affected by the 1986 Challenger Space Shuttle disaster that he asked for a transfer to the Space Shuttle program after the devastating incident. His personal goal was to ensure that nothing like that could ever happen again.
The vast majority of his co-workers and supervisors found Mr. Jones to be easy to get along with and quite charismatic and persuasive for an engineer. He seemed to have an innate ability to talk others into doing things they originally did not want to do. Even more amazingly, people seem to be happier for having done what Mr. Jones asked after the activity or task is complete. NASA was so impressed with his people skills that they encouraged him to pursue an MBA at the University of Houston and paid for his education. After earning his degree, Mr. Jones received a promotion to Department head, where he successfully managed over 80 engineers for several years. Later promotions with greater responsibility occurred over the years, and he ultimately joined the senior management team. Mr. Jones retired from NASA in December of 2017 after more than 38 years of service.
Mr. Robert Jones - Entrepreneur
Mr. Jones was widowed early in life and as a result, spent the majority of his free time in his massive personal workshop. Mr. Jones currently holds over 5.

In this module we explore the differences between philosophical and sociological approaches to the question, "What is the relationship between the individual and society?" In doing so, we summarize the three theoretical frameworks sociologists typically have used to respond to this question. We then review four recent developments that challenge these established perspectives, developments that are explored in greater detail in subsequent modules.
Throughout this module, we summarize several terms used in our analysis. The module closes with an overview of the key questions we will consider throughout the semester's readings.

Immune Disorders in Pediatrics and GeriatricsYou began exploring t.docx
1. Immune Disorders in Pediatrics and Geriatrics
You began exploring the pathophysiology and treatment for
immune disorders, such as HIV, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel
disease, and systemic lupus E. You continue this exploration as
you consider these disorders in specific patient groups:
pediatrics and geriatrics. As an advanced practice nurse, you
must understand the differences in the pathophysiology of these
patients, as well as how the drugs used to treat immune
disorders might impact the body systems of pediatric and
geriatric patients. These two patient groups process and respond
to drugs differently than the average adult in their absorption,
distribution, metabolism, and excretion of drugs. For this
reason, special consideration must be taken when treating
immune disorders in pediatric and geriatric patients.
To prepare:
Review this week's media presentation on antimicrobials.
Select one of the following immune disorders: HIV, psoriasis,
inflammatory bowel disease, or systemic lupus E (SLE)
Think about the pathophysiology of your selected disorder.
Compare pathophysiological changes in pediatric and geriatric
patients.
Consider the types of drugs that are used to treat symptoms
associated with your selected disorder. Reflect on how the drugs
might impact various body systems in pediatric and geriatric
patients, as well as measures you might take to help reduce any
negative effects.
Reflect on how you might educate a pediatric patient on the
disorder you selected and how you might educate a geriatric
patient on the same disorder. Consider how you would promote
medication adherence, as well.
To complete:
Write a 3- to 4-page paper that addresses the following:
1. Explain the pathophysiology of the disorder you selected.
2. Then, compare pathophysiological changes in pediatric and
geriatric patients.
2. Describe the types of drugs that are used to treat symptoms
associated with the disorder you selected. Explain how these
drugs might impact various body systems in pediatric and
geriatric patients, as well as measures you might take to help
reduce any negative effects.
3. Explain how you might educate a pediatric patient on the
disorder you selected and how you might educate a geriatric
patient on the same disorder. Include your rationale for each
approach, as well as how you would promote medication
adherence.
4. Summary with conclusion
Reminder:
*Put headings on every section.
*Please utilize my resources below at least three references on
the list and you can add more at least 3 or more from your own
resources (Citation/references must be 5 years old between 2011
and 2016)…
