Gastrointestinal (GI) and hepatobiliary disorders affect the structure and function of the GI tract

Gastrointestinal (GI) and hepatobiliary disorders affect the structure and function of the GI tract. Many of these disorders often have similar symptoms, such as abdominal pain, cramping, constipation, nausea, bloating, and fatigue. Since multiple disorders can be tied to the same symptoms, it is important for advanced practice nurses to carefully evaluate patients and prescribe a treatment that targets the cause rather than the symptom.

Once the underlying cause is identified, an appropriate drug therapy plan can be recommended based on medical history and individual patient factors. In this Assignment, you examine a case study of a patient who presents with symptoms of a possible GI/hepatobiliary disorder, and you design an appropriate drug therapy plan.
To Prepare

Review the case study assigned by your Instructor for this Assignment
Reflect on the patient’s symptoms, medical history, and drugs currently prescribed.
Think about a possible diagnosis for the patient. Consider whether the patient has a disorder related to the gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary system or whether the symptoms are the result of a disorder from another system or other factors, such as pregnancy, drugs, or a psychological disorder.
Consider an appropriate drug therapy plan based on the patient’s history, diagnosis, and drugs currently prescribed.

By Day 7 of Week 4

Write a 1-page paper that addresses the following:

Firstly, explain your diagnosis for the patient, including your rationale for the diagnosis.

Secondly, describe an appropriate drug therapy plan based on the patient’s history, diagnosis, and drugs currently prescribed.

Thirdly, justify why you would recommend this drug therapy plan for this patient. Be specific and provide examples.

CASE STUDY:
Patient HL comes into the clinic with the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. The patient has a history of drug abuse and possible Hepatitis C. HL is currently taking the following prescription drugs:

Synthroid 100 mcg daily
Nifedipine 30 mg daily
Prednisone 10 mg daily

The Mystery Cemetery project is basically a puzzle-solving project.  You are given a set of clues and information.  Your task is to interpret the clues and try to reconstruct as much as you can regarding how the people of this culture organized their village.

Mystery Cemetery project is basically a puzzle-solving project

The Mystery Cemetery project is basically a puzzle-solving project.  You are given a set of clues and information.  Your task is to interpret the clues and try to reconstruct as much as you can regarding how the people of this culture organized their village.
As an aside, this project is based upon an actual real culture.  Do yourself a favor, though – don’t bother trying to go on-line and track down information on who it is.  It’s really not worth the effort.  Especially since there is a lot of incorrect information deliberately placed on-line regarding this project!  You would end up spending far more time, uselessly, than if you were just to work on the assignment.

There is just one cemetery – you are given four maps of the same one place.

You are responsible for accounting for all of the people in the entire cemetery.

As to format – there isn’t any required format.

You could do it in a Word document, or a spreadsheet table, or even in a set of PowerPoint slides or such, if you wanted to.

It is not an “essay”; just a write up.  The thing I am looking for is that you account for the meaning of all of the artifacts found, and thus can provide the required amount of information regarding who is buried where and aspects about why things are arranged the way they are.

This means that I do not want just a listing of what items are placed into each grave.  We already have that information.  That is the information you are given.  What is wanted is the interpretation of each item.  For example, what does it mean to be buried with a “blue marble”?  Why some people in the cemetery buried with blue marbles and others are are not?

One good way to start organizing your write up is to look at the “KEY” provided with map #1.  For your write-up, copy this list, and then try to determine the meaning of each item on the list.  There will be some items that are far easier to interpret than others; you will need to “get” some of the easy things before you can figure out some of the more difficult things.

The way this project is graded is via a point system.

For each of all of the items, there is indeed just one correct interpretation.  You get points for each aspect that you get correct.  If you get everything correct, that totals to 100 points, 100%.

As you do the project, you will probably also notice patterns emerging.  Part of your task is to also tell me about the patterns you see.  However, once you see these patterns, you will also notice anomalies – there are a couple of graves in the cemetery that do not fit the overarching patterns.  These are not mistakes.

There are no “mistakes” in the information you are provided.
So, you have the additional task of trying to interpret these anomalies in the context of the overall pattern you have seen for the village.  For these anomalies, there are no “correct” answers.

Instead, for each, there are two or three interpretations which are logical and are well supported by the data that you have; other interpretations would not be as practical, nor do you have as much to back up your assumptions.  Deducing a good interpretation for each of these anomalies will gain you “extra credit”.  It is thus possible to attain about 110% on the Mystery Cemetery project.

I will once again here push the idea that this project is based upon an actual people (although what we have here is a bunch of different cemeteries condensed into one for convenience for the project).

So, do not try to interpret things by trying to place things into some other cultural context (e.g., claiming that these are ancient Greeks, or Egyptians, or early Christians, or whatever).

These people are themselves; interpret them, as best as you can, in their own context via the clues you are provided with.

Okay – Now, if you have read all the way down to this far, a hint to help you out: Look very carefully at the pictures of the burials (you might want to enlarge the pictures on your computer screen).

One of those burials contains a great big huge honking clue (in the form of artifacts placed in the grave) about the person in that grave.  If you pick up on this clue, many other things start falling into place, sort of “domino effect” style.

This is a paper that is focusing on a real-world situation or a fictional situation of interest parties . The paper also provides additional questions to use in writing this assignment paper clearly.

A real-world situation or a fictional situation of interest parties

Find a situation (a real-world situation or a fictional situation) with two or more parties of jurisdiction or interest over a specific project or policy (public/private partnership, intergovernmental). At least one of the parties needs to be a governing board or elected officials.

In 750-1,000 words, do the following:

Explain the participants in the situation. (power involved, interest, requirement)
Explain the difference between influence and negotiation among the parties.
Recommend strategies to build the relationship between the parties in preparation for negotiation (at least one of the parties needs to be elected officials or governing board)
Recommend different techniques of negotiation the parties can utilize to get their interest or requirements met.
Discuss how each party determines the value of what they are negotiating for and what they are willing to give up.
Discuss what would make each party agree to a decision within a negotiation or leave the table (how much leverage does each party have).

Use two to three scholarly resources to support your explanations.

Remember, ensure  that the paper is at least three pages exclusive of the cover and the reference pages. Also, ensure that you include all the references you use in finding research for this assignment paper. References should be at least three for the paper. All references, citation, and writing should follow the APA formatting and styling guidelines. Finally, ensure you focus on the assignment topic in detail.

Ensure that you follow the instructions provided keenly. Marking of the assignment is on how you do the task and how you submit the assignment too. In case of any question feel free to ask your instructor for more guidelines before doing the assignment.

Are any of your assigned resources “over-utilized”? If so, which ones, and why? What, if any are the cost implications of your resource assignments?

Are any of your assigned resources over-utilized If so which ones, and why

Examine each activity in your project schedule and attach a name from the list of resource names from your resource sheet. Further, ensure that all activities in your project are resourced. Upon completion, your Project Libre file should look similar to the resourced office relocation project example, as follows:

Office Relocation Example_resource_assignments.pod

After assigning resources, click on “View” and “Resource” usage. Further, examine the tabular report of resource utilization and cost. Further, return to the Gantt view and click on the “Resource Histogram” tab in the upper right-hand corner of the Project Libre display.

Prepare a one page report answering the following questions:

Firstly, are any of your assigned resources “over-utilized”? If so, which ones, and why?

Secondly, what, if any are the cost implications of your resource assignments?

Now that you have viewed the resource report, would you make any changes to your resource assignment? If so, what would you change? Finally, if you would not make changes, explain your rationale.

How to Estimate Project Costs

This is a paper that is focusing on identify the US export and import totals with China project. The paper also provides additional information to use in writing the assignment paper clearly.

Identify the US export and import totals with China project

This project requires you to research. You will first research using the U.S. Census Bureau to extract information related to the U.S. trade position. You are to address the requirements in the template below, using course materials and research to support the reasoning. Note that using course materials and reference articles goes beyond defining terms but clearly and thoroughly explains the ‘why and how’ of a situation. Avoid merely making statements but close the loop of the discussion by explaining how something happens or why something happens, which focuses on importance and impact. In closing the loop, you will demonstrate the ability to think clearly and rationally showing an understanding of the logical connections between the course materials, your reference articles and the question(s) being asked.

Use the following template using the headings to separate elements. Create a new paragraph for each bulleted item below. Do not use bullets in your paper as the required format is in narrative format with indented paragraph and no extra space between paragraphs.

Introduction

Write an Introduction paragraph. The Introduction paragraph is the first paragraph of the paper and will be used to describe to the reader the intent of the paper explaining the main points covered in the paper. This intent should be understood prior to reading the remainder of the paper so the reader knows exactly what is being covered in the paper.
Consider writing the introduction last to ensure that the main points.
Foreign Trade

Using the U.S. Census Bureau, identify the export, import and total trade amounts for the United States for the last reported quarter/year end.
Calculate the balance of trade and discuss the results.
Explain how imports and exports affect the US economy.
Trade with China

Currently, China has tariffs in place on approximately $110 billion of U.S. products. The tariffs range from 5%-25% and are placed on products that include soybeans, beef, pork, seafood, vegetables, liquefied natural gas, whiskey and also ethanol. On August 1, 2019, the Trump administration announced that it planned to levy tariffs of 10% on over $300 billion of Chinese imports.
