Identify the risk factors for cardiovascular problems that need to be modified for this patient.
A 50-year-old male presents to the community clinic.

He has just relocated to the area and has no primary provider. He is a long distance truck driver and requires a physical examination as a requirement for his continued employment.

Physical examination demonstrates a BMI of 33, blood pressure of 180/90 mm Hg, diminished femoral pulses and bilateral varicose veins with 1+ pitting edema in both ankles. He has a 30 year history of smoking two packs of cigarettes per day.

Initial Discussion Post:

Identify the risk factors for cardiovascular problems that need to be modified for this patient.
Using evidence based research, determine which risk factor the RN will address first.
Describe how the RN will implement a patient centered plan to address the priority risk factor for this patient.
Base your initial post on your readings and research of this topic.

Plan a relational database that will address a simple, specific clinical question related to health care or nursing.

For Part 2 of your Team Database Project, you will plan a relational database that will address a simple, specific clinical question related to health care or nursing. You will determine this question and then write a paper describing in detail the database you plan to design based on your question. Your ultimate goal (Part 3) in this Team Database Project is to create a database using Microsoft Access that can answer a simple clinical question. Plan carefully to ensure that you will gather a sufficient amount of appropriate information. The project is being introduced to you this week so that when you go through the actual steps of designing and building a database, you will already have your question in mind, and thus, be better prepared to address it.

In database design, identifying the question to be asked is the most important activity. If the designers do not understand what the client wants out of the database, the database will not be useful. Time and money will be wasted. In the real world, designers return to the client at each stage of development to make sure the design is on track.

Make sure all of the team understands what questions are to be asked of the database and what type of answers you are seeking. Use plain English. Don’t worry about using a query language.

Submit ONE 3- to 5-page paper that synthesizes all of the relevant ideas and contributions. The paper is due by Sunday 07/03/2016 before midnight.

DEFINE A TEST PLAN OR SCRIPT IDENTIFYING MAJOR SOFTWARE FUNCTIONALITY AND HARDWARE TO BE TESTED WITH REQUIRED OUTCOMES.

Write a 1,400- to 2,100-word draft of the third section of your SDLC Final Project. Include the following:

• Testing process summary

o Define a test plan or script identifying major software functionality and hardware to be tested with required outcomes.

• Installation process and training plan summary

o Provide a timeline identifying specific steps, including training, and related resources required to implement the recommended system. Include a narrative explanation with a discussion of effects of project constraints—such as time, conversion method, and so forth—and a description of the recommended plan.

• Documentation plan summary

o Specify and explain each type of documentation, which is required for ongoing technical and user support of the proposed system.

SDLC Project – Team C
The process of determining requirements involves the analysts and other team members to gather information. This information is used to figure out exactly what the new system should do, and this information is obtained from as many sources as possible. Examples of these sources are: observing users, reports, previous analysis records, questionnaire forms, previous or current developers, present system procedures, and system administrators. There are several methods of determining requirements and some of those traditional techniques for collecting requirements are:
Interviewing and actively listening to others
Administering questionnaires to providers and end users
Observing system users
Analyzing current system procedures
Reviewing present and previous documents
After using these methods of determining the specific requirements for Patton-Fuller, the analysts on this project team were able to provide a list of confirmed requirements. Along with the list, the team has categorized each system requirement identified as either mandatory or optional. The list includes the following:
Manage and track the appointments of patients – Mandatory
Schedule, reschedule, or cancel appointments – Mandatory
Check patients in and out – Mandatory
View physician’s schedules for open appointments – Mandatory
Track patients for follow-ups and schedule those dates – Optional
Referrals – Optional
Share information (EHR) with other departments – optional
Weekly physician schedule report and comparative analysis report – Optional
Patient pre-op and post-op schedule report – Mandatory
Patient to physician time ratio – Optional
Monthly billing report – Mandatory
The flow chart listed below reflects the proposed flow of the process upon completion of the project. The previous process from beginning to end consumed more time than it needed to. This document will identify a process, and the designed flowchart gives a graphic view into the process that the team is looking to perfect it to become. Designing a flowchart for the process should be completed in order to identify the amount of time, redundancy of calls made to and from the patient, and initiate ideas to make the process more efficient.

Developing the proficiency to locate, read, and critically analyze research literature for bias, opinion, quality of evidence, and appropriateness to its target audience is essential to your success in this master’s program and as a nurse engaged in advanced practice.

Throughout your degree program, you will use evidence as you develop research papers and program interventions, and evaluate health care problems. When searching for evidence or exploring the research literature, it is important to look for current articles—articles that have been written within the past five years. That is not to imply that seminal work should not be considered as well. When using research literature that is older than five years, it should feature ground-breaking evidence that justifies its inclusion.

With this Assignment, you become familiar with the Walden Library by searching the databases, reviewing resources, and downloading a full-text article.

To prepare:

•Review the following in the Learning Resources:
?Introduction to Scholarly Writing: Purpose, Audience, and Evidence
?Introduction to Scholarly Writing: Finding a Scholarly Voice
?School of Nursing Sample Paper
•Media program: “Introduction to Scholarly Writing: Purpose, Audience, and Evidence”
•Participate in or review an archived version of the following Walden Library Webinars:
?Introduction to the Walden Library
?Evaluating Online Resources
?An Introduction to Evidence-Based Searching
•Then, search the Walden Library databases, and locate a peer-reviewed research article that pertains to:
?Online Learning as it relates to one of the following: Student success, students’ experiences, students’ perceptions, and/or faculty perceptions.
•Read the article evaluating its strengths and weaknesses in terms of scholarly writing, bias, opinion, quality of evidence, and appropriateness to its target audience.
•Then, write the body of your paper (2- to 3-pages) that includes the following:
?Introduction

A 1-paragraph introduction to your paper
?Article Summary

A 1-paragraph summary of the article you have selected
?Analysis

An analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the article, including an assessment of the writing in terms of bias, opinion, quality of evidence, and appropriateness to its target audience (Be sure your analysis is written in a scholarly manner and appropriate voice.)
?Utilize at least 3 resources (i.e. course media, course textbook, course learning resources, credible websites) to support your analysis
?Summary

A 1-paragraph summary of your paper
•In addition, create the following to be included with your paper:
?Title page
?References

Include your references using correct APA formatting
To complete:

Review the APA Basics Checklist: Citations, Reference List, and Style in Week 2 Learning Resources to check your APA citations. Review also the School of Nursing sample paper to ensure the overall format of your paper is properly aligned with APA format.
Submit your paper (title page, 2–3 pages of content, reference page) as described above.
