Need Initial Post For Below Discussion

/in /by

APA format 2 pages 4 peer review references 2 from Walden University Library

Due Monday April 30th at 7pm EST

Discussion: Urinary Tract Infections
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by bacteria—most often, Escherichia coli. However, certain viruses, fungi, and parasites can also lead to infection. The infection can affect the lower and upper urinary tract including the urethra, prostate (in males), bladder, ureter, and kidney. Due to the progression of the disease and human anatomy, symptoms present differently among the sexes, as well as among different age groups. It is important to understand how these factors and others impact the pathophysiology of UTIs. Advanced practice nurses must have this foundation in order to properly diagnose patients.

To prepare:

Review Chapter 30 in the Huether and McCance text and Chapter 32 of the Arcangelo text. Identify the pathophysiology of lower urinary tract and upper urinary tract infections. Consider the similarities and differences between the two types of infections.
Consider one type of drug that would be used to treat symptoms associated with urinary tract infections.
Consider gender and one of the following patient factors: genetics, ethnicity, age, or behavior. Consider how gender and the factor you selected might impact the pathophysiology of the urinary tract infections. Then, reflect on how these factors might impact the effects of prescribed drugs, as well as any measures you might take to help reduce any negative side effects.
By Day 3
Post a description of the pathophysiology of lower urinary tract and upper urinary tract infections, including their similarities and differences. Then, describe one type of drug that would be prescribed to treat symptoms associated with urinary tract infections. Finally, explain how gender and another patient factor might impact the pathophysiology of the urinary tract infections and the effects of prescribed drugs. Explain measures you might take to help reduce any negative side effects.

 What exactly is civility?  For this assignment write a five paragraph essay explaining the definition of civility and its importance in education

/in /by

“Civility”  This week, we briefly took a look at civility in a TEDtalk video.  Our discussion forum also addressed the issue of civility.  As you go through college, you will encounter a greater variety of people from all kinds of backgrounds.  It is increasingly important in our society today to maintain civility as we interact with others.  What exactly is civility?  For this assignment write a five paragraph essay explaining the definition of civility and its importance in education. Be sure to follow the steps below to find an article that addresses the issue and incorporate at least one quote and one paraphrase from the article to support your ideas.

1.Use  EBSCOhost to find a scholarly article pertaining to the topic of “civility.”

a.    Using “Academic Search Complete” in EBSCOhost:

i.    Type the word “civility” in the search bar.

ii.    Go to the left sidebar to limit your search to “Full Text” and “Scholarly (Peer Reviewed) Journals.”

iii.    In the left sidebar, you select “Academic Journals” for the Source Types.

iv.    Find one article that seems appealing to you. It is essential that you chose an article you comprehend fully since you will be required to discuss a quote and a paraphrase from the article and demonstrate its relevance to your topic.

b.    Download the PDF Full Text and save a copy of that article on a flash drive or on your computer.

2.    Prepare a summary of the article.

a.    As you read the article, pause after each paragraph and jot down the main point of that paragraph.

b.    Use your own words – do not copy the authors’ words.

For example:      As John Rogers, lead canine researcher for The University of Southern California States, “Canines, while extremely vicious at times, are more prone to use their strength for the aid of others” (21). This demonstrates that dogs’ strength tends to be a virtue rather than a deficit.
