Reflection week 7

 

Reflection: write 1-2 paragraphs reflecting on your learning for the week. Guiding questions are provided or you may write about what you felt was most significant to you for the week.

You will need to post your reflection here before you are able to see other students’ posts.

  • Nearly every student in the course was able to think of a time when they had personally been impacted by or had observed incivility in the workplace. In what ways does this impact your view of the nursing profession?
  • If those outside of healthcare were aware, how might it impact their view?
  • As you move towards your role as an NP, what will you do to support healthful work environments for yourself and your colleagues?
  • Think about your personal use of social media. Are there changes you would like to make in how you use social media?
  • What self-care practices do you engage in to promote personal holistic health?

Case Study: A 25-year-old presented to the labor and delivery unit with complaints of uterine cramping and lower back pain. The client denied any vaginal bleeding and had a history of preterm birth at 32 weeks (about 7 and a half months) gestation with her last pregnancy. The baby from that pregnancy is three years old has no developmental issues. The client’s gestational age is 30 weeks (about 7 months). She is O+, and all other lab values are normal. No evidence of sexually transmitted infections (STI’s).

(Group Beta Strep is missing from the labs and most often is obtained at 35 – 37 weeks (about 8 and a half months) gestation. Without this information, it is often determined to treat the patient anyway, to protect a premature baby from the risk.)

  • What additional information should the nurse obtain from the client?
  • What nursing intervention is most appropriate in this situation?
  • What screening tests should be obtained to determine the risk for preterm labor?
  • If the client is in preterm labor, what medications would the nurse expect to be ordered, and what are the priorities for the nurse to assess post-administration? (Include dose, side effects and expected outcomes of the medication).

Nursing week 5 abstract assignment

Week 5 Abstract, Significance, and Summary

 This week, you will submit the final portions of your paper for review. Please make sure to review all of your instructor's feedback and prepare your research for final submission in week 7.  

Abstract

The abstract is generally used as a searchable, comprehensive overview of your research. When online databases search research, they pull keywords from the abstract. Compose the abstract for your research project. Your abstract should be one page in length, and include the following:

· Describe the research problem and why it is important. 

· Identify the purpose of the study. 

· State the theoretical foundations and/or conceptual frameworks, as appropriate. 

· Summarize the key research question(s). 

· Describe, concisely, the overall research design, methods, and data analysis procedures. 

· Conclude with a statement on the implications for positive social or institutional change.

Your abstract must be a clear and concise overview of your research that would be easily searchable if you were to publish in a journal. 

Significance and Summary 

In 3–4 pages, summarize your study. Provide a summation of evidence (referencing your literature) that the problem is current, relevant, and significant to the discipline. Reiterate the gap in the literature and how your project contributes to social or organizational change in nursing and nursing education.

Within your summary, state the significance of your research by identifying potential contributions of the study that advance knowledge in the discipline. This is an elaboration of what the problem addresses. Provide a strong “take home” message that captures the key essence of your research.

Lastly, describe recommendations for further research that are grounded in the strengths and limitations of the current research as well as the literature you reviewed. Ensure recommendations do not exceed the research boundaries.

Review the rubric for grading criteria.

25 to >20.5 pts

Meets Expectations

The significance and summary section includes an overall summary of the project’s main points the significance of the project to the nursing education profession, and recommendations for future research.The summation is 3-4 pages and provides evidence that the problem is current, relevant, and significant to the discipline. The summary reiterates the gap in the literature and how your project contributes to social or organizational change in nursing and nursing education. The significance of the problem is stated and correlated to potential contributions of the study that advance knowledge in the discipline. Provides a strong “take home” message that captures the key essence of your research. The summary concludes with recommendations for further research that are grounded in the strengths and limitations of the current research as well as the literature reviewed.

20.5 to >18.75 pts

Approaches Expectations

The significance and summary section includes an overall summary of the project’s main points the significance of the project to the nursing education profession, however may be limited in detail in some areas. The summation is less than 3 pages and provides some evidence that the problem is current, relevant but the significance to the discipline is questionable. There is not a strong strong “take home” message that captures the key essence of your research.There are limited recommendations for further research that are somewhat grounded in the strengths and limitations of the current research as well as the literature reviewed.

18.75 to >14.75 pts

Falls Below Expectations

The significance and summary section includes an overall summary of the project’s main points but is missing key required components, enough that the meaning of this final section is impeded and does not summarize the research effectively.

Using the Theory of Planned Behavior to Predict Mothers’ Intentions to Vaccinate Their Daughters Against HPV1

Read the following article from Chapter 3, Pg 45, and Answer the related questions:

The makers of HPV vaccine target mothers of girls ages 9 to 14 in their ads. Brainstorm the attitudes/beliefs, and subjective norms you think might influence mothers’ decisions about vaccinating their daughters against this STI. Now, read the following article and answer the questions at the end.

Chapter 3 Article: Using the Theory of Planned Behavior to Predict Mothers’ Intentions to Vaccinate Their Daughters Against HPV1

Askelson, Natoshia M; Campo, Shelly; Lowe, John B; Smith, Sandi; Dennis, Leslie K et al.

Abstract (summary)

This study assessed mothers’ intentions to vaccinate their daughters against human papillomavirus (HPV) using the theory of planned behavior (TPB). Experience with sexually transmitted infections (STIs), beliefs about the vaccine encouraging sexual activity, and perception of daughters’ risk for HPV were also examined for a relationship with intention. A random sample of mothers in a rural, Midwestern state were mailed a survey with questions pertaining to the intention to vaccinate. Attitudes were the strongest predictor of mothers’ intentions to vaccinate, but intentions were not high. Subjective norms also influence intention. Mothers’ risk perceptions, experience with STIs, and beliefs about the vaccine encouraging sexual activity were not related to intention. Mothers’ perceptions of the daughters’ risks for HPV were surprisingly low. This research provides a foundation for designing interventions to increase HPV vaccination rates. Further research should explore ways to influence mothers’ attitudes and to uncover the referent groups mothers refer to for vaccination behavior.

In 6-12 sentences, answer the following questions. Cite examples from the article to support your responses.

a. Discuss how the Theory of Planned Behavior was used to Predict Mothers’ Intentions to Vaccinate Their Daughters Against HPV

b. Which constructs had the greatest impact on the mothers’ intention to vaccinate their daughters?
