Fundamentals of Nursing Process II

6.0K
There are several characteristics related to delivering nursing care. One vital characteristic of the nursing process is that it can be used to protect nurses and justify the provided care. Productive use of the nursing process requires the knowledge and skills of nurses to assess and solve issues. Nurses should develop and strengthen their critical thinking skills and evidence-based nursing interventions to improve their skills in formulating nursing care plans. A well-defined approach to...

The scientific method provides the foundation for any research. It is the most reliable and objective of all forms of gaining knowledge and guides in applying research-based evidence in practice and conducting future research.
When using research findings to change practice, one must understand the process used to guide a study. The scientific method is a systematic, step-by-step process that supports the data's validity, reliability, and generalizability. As a result, findings can be...

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

1.5K
Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

Fixation and Sectioning

8.9K
Two basic types of preparation are used to visualize specimens with a light microscope: wet mounts and fixed specimens.
The simplest type of preparation is the wet mount, in which the specimen is placed in a drop of liquid on the slide. A liquid specimen can be directly deposited on the slide using a dropper. Solid specimens, such as skin scraping, can be placed on the slide before adding a drop of liquid to prepare the wet mount. Sometimes the liquid is simply water, but stains are often added...

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary parasitology
  • Emerging infectious diseases
  • Medical entomology

Context:

  • Climate change is expanding the geographic range of zoonotic diseases.
  • Dirofilariasis, a parasitic infection transmitted by mosquitoes, is increasingly prevalent globally.
  • This zoonosis poses diagnostic challenges in both veterinary and human medicine.

Purpose:

  • To present a case of pulmonary dirofilariasis misdiagnosed as malignancy.
  • To raise awareness of dirofilariasis as an emerging differential diagnosis for pulmonary nodules.
  • To underscore the importance of considering parasitic infections in the context of climate change.

Summary:

  • A patient presented with a peripheral rounded opacity on imaging, initially suspected to be pulmonary malignancy.
  • Surgical intervention was performed based on the suspicion of cancer.
  • Histological examination confirmed the opacity was caused by dirofilariasis, not a tumor.

Impact:

  • Highlights the potential for dirofilariasis to mimic lung cancer, leading to unnecessary surgery.
  • Emphasizes the need for increased clinical suspicion and diagnostic vigilance for dirofilariasis.
  • Underscores the public health implications of climate change on the spread of zoonotic parasitic diseases.
