Peripheral Arterial Disease II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Evaluation

Peripheral Arterial Disease II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Evaluation

Clinical manifestationsPeripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) manifests through a range of symptoms, from the characteristic intermittent claudication to atypical presentations and severe complications in advanced stages. Intermittent claudication, a hallmark symptom of PAD, presents as exercise-induced muscle pain that typically resolves within minutes of rest. This pain is reproducible and stems from inadequate blood flow, leading to the accumulation of lactic acid produced during anaerobic...

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is classified into subtypes based on the predominant bowel habits as determined by the Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS). The subtypes are:

Avoidance Learning and Learned Helplessness

Avoidance Learning and Learned Helplessness

Avoidance learning and learned helplessness are critical concepts in understanding behavioral responses to negative stimuli.
Avoidance learning occurs when an organism learns that a specific behavior can prevent an unpleasant outcome. For example, a student who receives a bad grade may start studying harder to avoid future poor grades. This behavior persists even when the negative outcome is no longer present. Avoidance learning is powerful because it maintains behavior in the absence of the...

Associative Learning

Associative Learning

Associative learning is a fundamental concept in behavioral psychology, wherein a connection is established between two stimuli or events, leading to a learned response. This process is critical in understanding how behaviors are acquired and modified. Conditioning, the mechanism through which associations are formed, can be divided into two main types: classical conditioning and operant conditioning, each elucidating different aspects of associative learning.
Classical conditioning, also known...

Purposive Learning

Purposive Learning

E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a...

Observational Learning

Observational Learning

Albert Bandura's observational learning, also known as imitation or modeling, occurs when a person observes and imitates another's behavior. It is a quicker process than operant conditioning. A well-known example is the Bobo doll study, where children who saw an adult acting aggressively towards the doll were more likely to act aggressively when left alone, compared to those who observed a nonaggressive adult. Many psychologists view observational learning as a form of latent learning...

Summary

This pilot study found that comparing evidence-based practice to hospital policies was a positive learning activity for nursing students. It reinforced evidence-based practice and improved understanding of nursing policies.

Area of Science:

Nursing Education
Evidence-Based Practice
Healthcare Policy

Background:

Students compared evidence-based practice (EBP) to hospital policies during clinical rotations.
A pilot study was conducted to evaluate this clinical learning activity.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate a clinical learning activity where students compared EBP to hospital policies.
To assess student and faculty perceptions of the learning activity.

Main Methods:

Developed and piloted student and faculty surveys.
Utilized purposive sampling to collect qualitative data and basic statistics.

Main Results:

Student satisfaction with the activity was generally positive.

Key themes included relevance to practice, met course outcomes, and reinforcement of EBP.

Faculty surveys indicated the activity was a useful tool for learning and utilizing EBP.

Conclusions:

The learning activity is an effective teaching and learning strategy.
Collaboration enhanced students' understanding of evidence in nursing practice.
Future work will focus on survey validation.
