Diagnosing Gastrointestinal Disorders

In primary care settings, patients often present with abdominal pain. Although this is frequently a sign of a gastrointestinal (GI) disorder, abdominal pain could also be the result of other systemic disorders, making this type of pain difficult to assess. While abdominal pain is most common, many other GI symptoms also overlap multiple disorders, further increasing the difficulty in diagnosing and treating patients. This makes provider-patient communication essential. You must be able to formulate questions that will prompt the patient to provide the necessary information, as this will guide your assessment and diagnosis. For this Discussion, consider potential diagnoses for the patients in the following case studies.

Case Study 1:
A 49-year-old man presents to the office complaining of vague abdominal discomfort over the past few days. He states he does not feel like eating and has not moved his bowels for the last 2 days. His patient medical history includes an appendectomy at age 22 and borderline hypertension, which he is trying to control with diet and exercise. He takes no medications and has no known allergies. Positive physical exam findings include a temperature of 99.9 degrees Fahrenheit, heart rate of 98, respiratory rate of 24, and blood pressure of 150/72. The abdominal exam reveals abdominal distention, diminished bowel sounds, and lower left quadrant tenderness without rebound.

Case Study 2:
A 40 year-old female presents to the office with the chief complaint of diarrhea. She has been having recurrent episodes of abdominal pain, diarrhea, and rectal bleeding. She has lost 9 pounds in the last month. She takes no medications, but is allergic to penicillin.  She describes her life as stressful, but manageable. The physical exam reveals a pale middle- aged female in no acute distress. Her weight is 140 pounds (down from 154 at her last visit over a year ago), blood pressure of 94/60 sitting and 86/50 standing, heart rate of 96 and regular without postural changes, respiratory rate of 18, and O2 saturation 99%. Further physical examination reveals:
Skin: w/d, no acute lesions or rashes
Eyes: sclera clear, conj pale
Ears: no acute changes
Nose: no erythema or sinus tenderness
Mouth: membranes pale, some slight painful ulcerations, right buccal mucosa, tongue beefy red, teeth good repair
Neck: supple, no thyroid enlargement or tenderness, no lymphadenopathy
Cardio: S1 S2 regular, no S3 S4 or murmur
Lungs: CTA w/o rales, wheezes, or rhonchi
Abdomen: scaphoid, BS hyperactive, generalized tenderness, rectal +occult blood

Case Study 3:
A 52-year-old male presents to the office for a routine physical. The review of symptoms reveals anorexia, heartburn, and weight loss over the past 6 months. The heartburn is long standing, occurring most days during the week. He takes TUMS or Rolaids to relieve the discomfort. The patient describes occasional use of ibuprofen for back pain, but denies other medications including herbals. He has no known allergies. He was adopted so does not know his family history. Social history reveals that, although he stopped smoking ten years ago, he smoked for 20 years. He occasionally consumes alcohol on the weekends only. The only positive physical exam finding for this patient was slight epigastric tenderness. The remainder of his exam was negative and the rectal exam was negative for blood.

To prepare:

  • Review this week’s media presentations and Part 12 of the Buttaro et al. text in the Learning Resources.
  • Select one of the three case studies listed above. Reflect on the provided patient information including history and physical exams.
  • Think about a differential diagnosis. Consider the role the patient history and physical exam played in diagnosis.
  • Reflect on potential treatment options based on your diagnosis.

Post on or before Day 3 an explanation of the differential diagnosis for the patient in the case study that you selected. Describe the role the patient history and physical exam played in the diagnosis. Then, suggest potential treatment options based on your patient diagnosis.

What are the differences between governance and leadership?

Social Marketing, Management, and Organizational Behavior

Part 1

Transparent and accountable governance and strong leadership are the cornerstones of successful public health operations and delivery of public health services.

Respond to the following questions in relation to governance and leadership:

  • What are the differences between governance and leadership?
  • What systems or processes should public health agencies utilize to ensure communication and accountability between their governing board and leaders? Justify your answers.

According to Kotter (2001), ” . . . leadership and management are two distinctive and complementary systems of action. Each has its own function and characteristic activities. Both are necessary for success in an increasingly complex and volatile business environment.”

Respond to the following questions in relation to management and leadership:

  • What are the differences between leadership and management?
  • Why do you think Kotter described leadership and management as complementary systems of action?

In recent years, the optimal management structure has shifted from a narrow span of control to a broad or wide span of control. Earlier, three to seven individuals were reporting to the same manager (narrow span), whereas today, it is common to have twenty or more staff members reporting to the same person (broad span), as stated in the course textbook.

Based on the readings for this week, the South University Online Library, and the Internet, respond to the following discussion points:

  • Identify at least one pro and one con for each span of control described above.
  • State, with reasons, which of the two structures you would recommend.

Part 2

Several decades ago, Kotler and Zaltman (1971) first used the term “social marketing” to describe the application of marketing theory to solve social- and health-related issues. Since then, social marketing has grown in popularity and usage within the public health community, including within national agencies such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and state and local health departments. Some of the factors responsible for the success of national social marketing campaigns are the efficient use of financial resources to develop marketing strategies, consistent messages across geographic boundaries, and uniform evaluation measures.

Respond to the following discussion points in relation to social marketing campaigns:

  • What challenges might you expect when adapting a national social marketing campaign in your local community?
  • Recommend ways in which your local health department may address these challenges.

Need help with assignment by tonight, ORG 581, Organization is Boeing.

Evaluate how a manager should address the human and product issues that will arise from global expansion. Assess specifically how the organizational structure might change, how to handle change management, and how this may impact the life cycle of the company. Consider the following:

  • Ability to obtain new financial sources
  • Competitors
  • Product life cycle
  • New needs of a customer
  • Regulations
  • Sustainable development
  • Changing/shifting demographics
  • Social consciousness
  • Demographics
  • External/internal environment
  • Psychological needs of current employees
  • Cultural differences of employees in the new country

List at least three risks that may occur, and evaluate potential solutions to mitigate or eliminate the risk. You should have a least one human management risk and one resource or materials risk.

1.From the perspective of economic theory, what is a minimum wage and when is it binding?

2.According to the Fair Work Commission’s National Minimum Wage Order for 2018 (available on it’s website), what is the national minimum wage per hour in Australia for an adult worker?

The following information will be used for the remaining 10 questions. Assume that the market for unskilled labour in Australia is a competitive market and can be described by the following demand and supply curves: D = 1,500,000 – 60,000W S = 120,000W – 1,200,000 Where W = wage rate per hour for labour, D is hours of labour demanded and S is hours of labour supplied.

3.Calculate the equilibrium wage rate and quantity of unskilled labour employed. Draw a diagram to illustrate your answer.

4.Show on your diagram and calculate the size of the: (i) Consumer/firm surplus

(ii) Producer/worker surplus

(iii) Total Surplus

5.Suppose that the Fair Work Commission imposes a minimum wage of $19 per hour.

(i) How many hours of employment are exchanged in the market?

(ii) Calculate the size of the surplus or shortage of hours created by the imposition of the minimum wage.

6.Assume that a minimum wage of $19.00 per hour is introduced. However, there is no change in either the Supply or Demand equations used in Question 3.

Draw a new diagram and label the minimum wage.

Calculate and show on the diagram:

i) Consumer/firm surplus

ii) Producer/worker surplus

iii) Total surplus

iv) Resources lost in job search

v) Deadweight loss

7. In answering the following questions, base your responses on what has happened to the relevant surplus.

Following the introduction of the minimum wage explain if:

i) Firms are better off?

ii) Workers are better off?

iii) Society is better off?

8.Now assume that the resources lost in job search calculated in Q6 are actually captured by producers (workers). In other words, now assume that no resources at all are lost in job search activity.

Re-calculate the following:

i) Consumer/firm surplus

ii) Producer/worker surplus

iii) Total surplus

iv) Deadweight loss.

9.Based on your re-calculations in Q8, is the conclusions reported in Q7 change?

10.Consider your responses in Q7 and Q9. From a consequentialist perspective that has as its objective allocative efficiency, is the introduction of a minimum wage ethically justified? Explain.

11.Consider your responses in Q7 and Q9. From a consequentialist perspective that has as its objective improving the standard of living of unskilled workers, is the introduction of a minimum wage ethically justified? Explain.

12.From a deontological ethical framework, construct an argument either in favour of a minimum wage or against it.
