Emergency Department Case Discussion

Emergency Department Case Discussion

Mr. W. is brought to the emergency department by his neighbor, Mr. C., who lives across the hall from him in a high-rise apartment building for low-income senior citizens. Mr. C. proceeds to explain that Mr. W. has become increasingly confused, paranoid, and secretive. He has stopped participating in social activities where he lives, no longer has a telephone, and won’t allow anyone into his apartment. It has been 4 months since Mr. C. last saw Mr. W. and says, “he looks bad. He’s lost weight and is too thin. He wouldn’t talk to me when I tried to start a conversation and he only opened his door a couple of inches. The smell coming from his apartment was awful. I can sometimes hear people yelling in the apartment, and I only ever see his older son stop by occasionally to check on him. And, today, I find him like this. I had to do something because I can’t just stand by and let this happen to him!” Mr. C. points to Mr. W. who has a black eye, swollen upper lip, and dried blood on his beard and clothing.

By Academic Wizard Blog

Bipolar Disorders Case Study

Answer the questions below based on the following case study.

A 20-year-old woman with a past history of MDD is brought to the local emergency department (ED) by her family. She appears restless, pacing around the waiting room, and her parents say that she has recently been asked to leave her job as a tattoo artist. She has not slept for four nights, and her speech is rapid and quickly wanders off the point. She had recently purchased a $20,000 car and a $40,000 van to jump-start her mobile tattoo business in Naples, Florida. She is very reluctant to remain in the ED department because she has far too much to do and considers it a waste of everyone’s time. She believes that she is far too important to be held back by minions.

Summarize the clinical case.,
What is the DSM 5-TR diagnosis based on the information provided in the case?,
Which pharmacological treatment would you prescribe according to the clinical guidelines? Include the rationale for this treatment.,
Which non-pharmacological treatment would you prescribe according to the clinical guidelines? Include the rationale for this treatment excluding a psychotherapeutic modality.,
Include an assessment of the treatment’s appropriateness, cost, effectiveness safety and potential for patient adherence to the chosen medication. Use a local pharmacy to research the cost of the medication and provide the most cost-effective choice for the patient. Use great detail when answering questions 3-5.,

In-Class Assignment -1

1) Identify the independent variable the levels of the independent variable and the dependent variable in the following research descriptions,

Researchers were interested in examining whether doing yoga practices or running would affect happiness. College students either did yoga practices or ran before taking a happiness test. Happiness was measured.,
Researchers were interested in examining whether the verbal memory performance of adult humans who drank green tea would be better than those who drank peach tea. College students were randomly assigned to either the green tea condition or the peach tea condition. Verbal memory performance was measured.,
Researchers were interested in examining the effect of room size on academic achievement. College students were randomly assigned to either a big or small room. Academic achievement was measured.,

2) Identify the strength and the direction of the following correlation coefficients:,

r= -.10
r= -.95
r= +.88

3) In a hypothetical study, I hypothesized that individuals who wore compression workout shorts would have lower heart rates immediately after a high-intensity workout compared to those who wore standard workout shorts. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group wore compression shorts during their workout, while the other group wore standard shorts. Heart rate was measured immediately after the workout for both groups. The results showed that participants wearing compression shorts had lower heart rates than those wearing standard shorts.

4) Imagine you are a researcher who is analyzing shoe consumption at a larger sneaker company. Write your hypothetical research description based on an experimental research design for this scenario:

Example research description: As a researcher, in a hypothetical study, I examined whether the type of shoe cushioning affects comfort levels. In this experiment, participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group wore shoes with advanced cushioned insoles, while the other group wore shoes with standard insoles. Comfort levels were measured immediately after participants walked a set distance. Results showed that participants who wore shoes with advanced cushioned insoles reported higher comfort levels than those who wore shoes with standard insoles.
