1. Treatment plan Assignment
Treatment plan AssignmentTreatment plan AssignmentMs. A. is an apparently healthy 26-
year-old white woman. Since the beginning of the current golf season, Ms. A has noted
increased shortness of breath and low levels of energy and enthusiasm. These symptoms
seem worse during her menses. Today, while playing in a golf tournament at a high,
mountainous course, she became light-headed and was taken by her golfing partner to the
emergency clinic. The attending physician’s notes indicated a temperature of 98 degrees F,
an elevated heart rate and respiratory rate, and low blood pressure. Ms. A states,
“Menorrhagia and dysmenorrheal have been a problem for 10-12 years, and I take 1,000 mg
of aspirin every 3 to 4 hours for 6 days during menstruation.” During the summer months,
while playing golf, she also takes aspirin to avoid “stiffness in my joints.”Laboratory values
are as follows:ORDER NOW FOR CUSTOMIZED, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPERSHemoglobin = 8
g/dlHematocrit = 32%Erythrocyte count = 3.1 x 10/mmRBC smear showed microcytic and
hypochromic cellsReticulocyte count = 1.5%Other laboratory values were within normal
limits.QuestionConsidering the circumstances and the preliminary workup, what type of
anemia does Ms. A most likely have? In an essay of 500-750 words, explain your answer and
include rationale.Case Study 2Mr. P is a 76-year-old male with cardiomyopathy and
congestive heart failure who has been hospitalized frequently to treat CHF symptoms. He
has difficulty maintaining diet restrictions and managing his polypharmacy. He has 4+
pitting edema, moist crackles throughout lung fields, and labored breathing. He has no
family other than his wife, who verbalizes sadness over his declining health and over her
inability to get out of the house. She is overwhelmed with the stack of medical bills, as Mr. P
always took care of the financial issues. Mr. P is despondent and asks why God has not taken
him.QuestionConsidering Mr. P’s condition and circumstance, write an essay of 500-750
words that includes the following:Describe your approach to care.Recommend a treatment
plan.Describe a method for providing both the patient and family with education and
explain your rationale.Provide a teaching plan (avoid using terminology that the patient and
family may not understand).Treatment plan AssignmentYou must proofread your paper.
But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to
do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer
accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be
penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make
corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for
obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.Use a
2. standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type
and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your
essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer
pages.Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased
leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other
such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of
trees, and will not fool your professor.The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced
with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard
copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay,
it will also be hard to follow your argument.
