Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis01:24

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

2.1K
The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data...

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:

Assessment of the Cardiovascular System III: Palpation01:27

Assessment of the Cardiovascular System III: Palpation

654
Palpation involves feeling the body to evaluate texture, size, consistency, and tenderness for assessing cardiovascular health. The following steps are organized in a head-to-toe order:
Jugular Venous Pressure (JVP) Measurement
Position the patient at a thirty- to forty-five-degree angle or in a semi-fowler's position. Look for the highest point of pulsation in the internal jugular vein and measure the vertical distance to the angle of Loius or sternal angle. A normal JVP is 3-4 cm above...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation

2.2K
Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.
Nurses can use several methods to evaluate patient outcomes. For example, oral questions can assess cognitive learning,...

Pathophysiology of Cardiac Performance01:29

Pathophysiology of Cardiac Performance

1.0K
Typical heart performance is influenced by heart rate, rhythm, myocardial contraction, and metabolism or blood flow. The cardiac muscle exhibits distinct electrophysiological features, including pacemaker activity and calcium channel control, which play a vital role in the heart's response to various drugs. The autonomic nervous system, comprising the sympathetic and parasympathetic branches, regulates heart rate. Sympathetic activation increases heart rate, while parasympathetic activation...

Assessment of the Cardiovascular System I: Subjective Data

567
A thorough health history and physical assessment are essential for identifying cardiovascular disease (CVD) symptoms and distinguishing them from other health issues.
Initial Enquiry
Ask the patient about their primary concern and thoroughly explore all reported symptoms.
Medical History
Investigate past illnesses affecting the cardiovascular system, such as angina, anemia, rheumatic fever, congenital heart disease, stroke, thrombophlebitis, dysrhythmias, varicosities
Inquire about symptoms...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Pathophysiology Teaching
  • Active Learning Strategies

Background:

  • Formative assessment via clinical cases is an active learning strategy.
  • Online formative assessment was investigated for its impact on pathophysiology education.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effect of online formative assessment using clinical cases in pathophysiology.
  • To analyze the impact based on students' prior academic performance.

Main Methods:

  • Seven clinical cases were used for online formative assessment in a pathophysiology course.
  • Student success was measured by end-of-semester exam scores (passing >60/100).
  • Analysis considered students' previous academic performance levels.

Main Results:

  • Ninety-six students participated; 65 passed the exam.
  • Higher previous academic performance and more formative assessment exercises correlated with passing.
  • In the intermediate performance group, students who passed completed significantly more cases (median 4 vs 0).

Conclusions:

  • Web-based formative assessment using clinical cases improved pathophysiology academic results.
  • The primary benefit was observed in students with intermediate academic performance.
  • This active learning approach enhances learning and academic outcomes.
